The Day I Met You

I still remember that beautiful  day like yesterday  
not a bit have I forgotten
The weather on that day was misty
And you were jogging

You were looking really pretty
Upon seeing me staring at your beauty  
your face turned crimson
Iike the seven beautiful colours of a prism

When I met you, I was afraid to talk to you
When I started talking, I was afraid to ask for a date
When I started dating you, I was afraid to confess my love

But that day also came
When I confessed my love towards you
We were walking along the shore
The night was high, with a harvest moon


my heart was pounding and hands started to shake
As I proposed you and showed you the ring
There I noticed that no sunset, no spring
Have such a beautiful grace
The grace I see in your face

Your smile has the power to replace
A severous  tempest into light
Darkness into a day which is bright
The sun waits for your smile to set
And The stars wait for you in order to shine

since the time I met you
Joy follows me like a shadow that never leaves


I will be lost in your thoughts
And will bear pain for you
God has sent you as mine
Will tell the whole world this beautiful line
That My heart desires to adorn your dreams
And to sway in your heart
You are the one who's spell has been casted upon me

the best gift is health, contentment the greatest wealth
but my life is running through your breath

Faraz, your love poem is utterly breathtaking in its purity of romantic devotion. Every line is so beautifully and lovingly poetic, especially your last stanza and final couplet, which just swept me off my feet and carried me away in the outpouring of your lovely emotions.. Superb, my friend. Warmest wishes ~Susan

Faraz, you've expressed so BEAUTIFULLY a man's heart who is truly in Love with a woman. I love the entire poem, but the last line, 'but my life is running through your breath' is superb. The best of luck in the contest and all the best to you. :) ~ Artsie

Faraz, this lovely poem is written with a heart that knows how to love and appreciate a woman and lucky she is to have your devotion. Over looking grammar mistakes, as I am sure a translation, English being possibly a second language? I loved this and it is going into my faves my friend! : )
