Not much into writing poems but I've passed by this kind of poem lately and I thought I would share it c:


“
“Some people are like fire,
beautiful flickering flames
that you know will burn you
but you can’t help but reach for.

They burn you slowly,
warming to scorching to burning,
and yet, aware of the pain,
you don’t pull away.

The scares last for a while,
if not forever,
and you find yourself poking them,
wishing for the flame once more”

Annabel Lee​

In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love—
I and my Annabel Lee—
With a love that the wingèd seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me—
Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we—
Of many far wiser than we—
And neither the angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea—
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

.............

^ A beautiful poem written by the famous poet - 'Edgar Allan Poe'.
He wrote it in memory of his wife after she died.

This is truly beautiful.

I guess after all a fire that burns that bright is not meant to last..

My Name (count girls’ names in this poetry)::p
Wohi guftagu ka andaz wohi Shaista lehja
Neelam jaam hey Feroza deedar lehja
Zuban mein Tarannum-e-Nighat ghazali
Naghma dil awaz Seema lehja
Shireen kalaam per Shama Mehjabeen
Tabassum se Roshan Aara jamal lehja
Naseem chali tou pheyl gai Khushbu charsoo
Aur Gul-e-Rukh se Nuzhat Mehak lehja
Pyar ki Tehreem ko Sehar tak andaz likha
Aur Farheen kay chaman sa ujala lehja
