Together

It's a world of trials and happiness, altogether
A cruel moment of sin & forgiveness, altogether

A story set in a lightless world and sombre patches
A beautiful man has been sold for less, altogether

Never was the night seen in the  day till now.
A gloom seems to shine with finesse, altogether.

I hoped against hope that this day would be mine
I survived for a moment of brazenness, altogether

You were my friend and guide, 'Mumtaz'
How did it all become such a mess, altogether?
