Thanks for not loving me ...

Not getting
enough love
could also be
a blessing;

I can't thank you much,
for, how would I've resisted
the pull of your quagmired
affection, had you shown some?
And I'd have lost
to you, all my worth;
the concern I owe
to a world dying
below the poverty line
of love.

Though its hard to tame
a fretful heart
craving to taste
what it gave.

Yet, the pain of
your separation
doesn't kill, as such,
hence ..
I can't thank you much ...

@ quin .. So very thanks, sir! Yes, Faiz spoke those magical words which are very true.

Beautiful ...

aur Faiz ne kaha thha
"aur bhi gham heiN mohabbat ke sawa"

and yes meaning, meaning, meaning
meaning of life -
ever elusive
with thousand traps

Beautiful poem Aadil..
I can't thank you much,
for, how would I've resisted
the pull of your quagmired
affection, had you shown some?
And I'd have lost
to you, all my worth;
the concern I owe
to a world struck hard
by the dearth of love.

an old quote came from Bell..

"When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us" -- Alexander Graham Bell
