A Wish To Sink
A sigh needs a lifetime to be felt,
Who could survive till your curls are fixed up.
- Ghalib -
With pregnant sail I float
On the sea of your eyes.
I try to forget you,
But my heart beats with your sighs.
I try to remember you,
But memory dies with your words.
On the silk edge of your moan's sword,
My soul wants to bleed again,
But for the winds.
I am destined to shipwrecks.
