I Can Not But Remember Her Poem by shakil ahmed

I Can Not But Remember Her



I become happy when night grows darker
After the day's hard toils,
Hopes and lots of disappointments
At least I will get some time
To lean on a sofa,
Watch TV and take some repose
My eyes become heavy with sleep
And a faint image floats before my eyes
I want to recall the name
From the pages of fond memory
I remember,
Once I closed all the doors
Of my rainbow world
I loosened the ropes
That tide her up
But now at this dark night
Her teenage longing disables me
How do I make others believe
That I cannot but remember her
My sleep vanishes
And I fly on the viewless wings of memory
I don't know for how long
In the morning I find myself
Sprawling like a dead body.
