For The Last Time.



With how much longing,
Did I look at you,
For the last time..............

I felt as if, I had lost everything,
My destiny kept pleading,
It felt as if, my heart was on fire,
And the world kept smiling...................

I saw you with my tearful eyes,
For the last time..................

I wish this day, would have never come,
If you and I had, never met,
My desires would not have sobbed, like this
There would have been no complaints,

I saw the heartless girl-friend,
For the last time........................

About this poem
