Daydream
PoetryIftekhar Ahmed
"So much beauty to discover, I can hardly take it in, I will ever stand in wonder, Of a grace that never ends" - Phil Wickham
On the other side of the glass window,
While the gusty winds blew,
A young lady sits among its billow,
Her hair flutters with the winds’ flow.
Her serene face, in my turbulent eyes,
As if she is devoid of any earthly ties,
Every dawn, I won’t need a sunrise,
Her face is sufficient to dazzle my eyes.
Her eyes, an iridescent sea,
The moment I entered this realm of glee,
Deeper I dived, brilliance grew every stee,
A divine elixir of heartache for me.
With such an ethereal beauty within sight,
Why look for reasons to stay and fight,
With a person with a soul so bright,
Why search for a cure for heart blight!
