On This Bench

On this bench, we spoke Of our love without end It was a love of a light yoke An easy burden without a bend On this bench, we played chess We laughed and we ate We shared essence and success So many nights we stood late On this bench we rocked passions Our tryst was here We dreamt on each other laps, visions Now you are there. On this bench, here I am And you, a past How could I forget you, Maryam? For this bench will always be to cast.
