Trust

Swallowed by the night rain;
                       I chased the light.
                 Though you knew I could not trust it.
               It changes itself when it meets a black hole.

nice poem. I would have to change if I met a black hole too. I'm so glad you were featured or I would have missed your poem. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for replying. It is sad you are not her. It seems we have lost her in the whirlwind of time. It is heartwrenching to think this. She is such a sweet person. Reunion, however, seems impossible. In order to read your reply I had to revert back to your poem as replies posted in this way are not conveyed by the Poetrysoup. In order for reply to be conveyed you have to comment on one of the poems of the person. This is how it works. I hope you have understood. Pl write replies on this princple

Congrats on your well deserved feature. I am back again after reading that you are from Dhaka and obviously a Bengali. I am looking for a friend of my wife Lily who is also called Umme Salma. Are you the same person? Please respond
