If you're not my world—I'm that face whose beauty has faded away
If you're not my world—I'm that river that wants not to flow that way
If you're not my world—I'm the earth whose light is somewhere lost
If you're not my world—I'm the house in which I feel like the ghost
If you're not my world—I'm that human whose heart and beat both die
If you're not my world—I'm that breath who forgets to breathe and sigh
If you're not my world—I'm that world that's not worth living again!
If you're not my world—I'm INCOMPLETE and I live in vain
If you're not my world—I'll cry tears like clouds pour the rain
If you're not my world—I love nothing...Not even my name
A/N:
I love my name, no matter what.. haha

Beautiful, Maryam❤️ You are wonderfully created and a world of many wonderful things yourself 😊🤩❤️💚⭐️
You have a very beautiful name <3
Nicely put together, Maryam. It is like sitting on a beach and listening to the waves coming in, Crash (If you're not my world), and then a pause for the effect. Very clever.
Disturbing photo however.
It was kinda sad till the end and then you live your name no matter what. Well Done!!!
This is amazing; it's an emotionally very powerful theme reflection! Also, the imagery is so vivid and creative! The repetition makes it more beautiful! It's like the haunting sense of emptiness! Great job 😊👏
I can see the effect of the song Maand on you. Well written Sister 💗💗
Very emotional and I appreciate the wave pattern and repetition.
woah this is mesmerizing. Loved the way your poem flows!!!
But if you're my world, my soul is yours to keep. This was very wistful and made me smile sadly. Loved your poem!
