Down...

Poetry

By waqar jameelPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Stay down maybe you'll survive, keep your head down and down shall you stay.

Well I've heard this words until they became my friends, until the day I found love, till the day I found you, my head couldn't stay down and every smile you made I had to witness

I had to watch you sway your body like ocean waves, like a broken soul stares at the beauty of the stars I needed to see your shimmering light, your​ glorious glow, I stayed down and stared down and I couldn't anymore, I couldn't miss the moments you showed loving me, had to watch the times you took a shot at the world and​ many times you won, I was told to stand down, but loving you gave me courage to rise and face the world, it made me look up to the stars not like a broken soul, but like a man who created the stars,

If I could, I'd tell the whole world about this... for this is how I know you love me...
