It cannot be tamed;
the pain of love.
Subdued, it may seem
for whiles in between
the volcanic eruptions.
And the raging streaks
of lava flow down the cheeks
of a lover, tracing burning lines,
to soothe.
A heart in a volcanic range
could only treasure the pain–
which flames a dying love.

That is very intense Aadil! Wonderfully written and a very good use of metaphors…. volcano and pain, lava and tears. Great work!
Thanks a lot Ayesha! Your comment, much appreciated!

@ Goonga jee .. thank you! you better lower your eyebrows coz it gives me a weird look of yours
Your tajarba is quite kamyab and the verse reminded me of a famous ghazal I can’t recall this time ..
Pain and love
holding hands
two strangers in a boat
travelling in the waters of time
brought together by chance
the day a heart decided to fall for another…
Just for reference…there is no such thing as happily ever after…love gives more pain than happiness…its a fact
@Asma .. but the lovers still crave for that sweet pain …
Allama Iqbal says .. mar dala hay meri aatish-nawa-ee nay mujhay,
aur meri zindagani ka yehi sama’n bhi hay</i.
My heart trembles when I read something about dying love.
Hey, everything is fine at your end….No volcanic eruptions na, waise I can’t see your eyes behind these dark spec
@neilina .. yes things are very much fine .. twas just a thought .. can’t you see the essence in my eyes through these poems
..
It’s a very, very beautiful piece! One of the finest I’ve come across lately.
This is just way too intense for me to handle
Nevertheless, it is absolutely well-written!
@Hina .. Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked it! Thanks for visiting my bog!
@nadia .. yes .. wherever there is fire, there is intensity
..
Thanks for commenting!
hmmmm……….
well…. Pain gets sweeter with time but it aches more and more till it converts into oxygen for the lover, the day pain ends; he meets his last destiny. the crash of life……….
There is never ever happily ever and after….. there is always a heart wrenching which hurts more than everything and anything….
Yep, it happens.
