The sultry evening <br />I gave myself up to the dark <br />I sailed down the street <br />To hide in The Corner <br />That was orange <br />I was with my spirits alone <br />Blended auburn curtains <br />Double sheathed <br />I flew towards the golden lights <br /> <br />This time I had given my self <br />My heart to enjoy the sense of loss <br />I found myself in The Groove <br /> <br />I drank to the depth of my grief <br />Romancing melancholy <br /> <br />Talk to me the sweetest language <br />Of the southern desert <br /> <br />My love was like the camel dance <br />In Balladi <br />This music and color <br />This light from my window <br />This sad perfection indeed <br />This mellow night <br /> <br />Islamabad <br />12/3/2010<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/romancing-melancholy/
