When you asked about me
from the flowers today
in the afternoon, did they
tell you that I was looking
for you among them?
From the happy bird I
learnt a tune of love
to sing, stories I told
the little boy who
was selling gum about
the things I did in love.
Did the soft evening
breeze give you the kiss
it snatched from me?
Did the colors of the
sunset show you the
picture I painted
in the sky around
the clouds and
all these friends
who know us smile
in understanding
because we know
life is an uneasy
compulsion and your
love sweet addiction.
Sequel to the poem Uneasy compulsion by poet Sadiqullah Khan
