I received your letter, so shall I start?

Day 17/30: A series where I write a poem every single day for 30 days.

By Maryam BatoolPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

I know what she feels, but she doesn't know it's real

I know she is unhealed, all her pain, I wanna steal

Me and those toys and trains, are still waiting for you

Memories of our lunchboxes, our eye-locks were true

And I wish for you to hold my hand every time I see a star

No need to know my favourites, everything tastes amazing in your jar

I see you with lens of beauty and miracle

I see you like no one, it's lovely and lyrical

Grant me, and I'll take you to my home with me

You'll be my queen, I'll prove it, you'll see

Ring is a small wish, I'll surrender myself, my soul

"A poem", my dear? You are my every GOAL

Yes, one day, we will, really forget the whole world

We would sit one day and talk, but nothing sad or whirled

I received your letter, so shall I start?

Should I express what's inside, and freeze my heart?

    Magic, Maryam. I think you did a great job and it was interesting to see the other side. Like looking at two sides of a coin. One side is 'heads' the other is 'tails'. Nice job.

  • I wonder what's inside that jar hehehe. This is a splendid reply to your previous poem. I loved it!
