Please Come Back!

My Lingering Questions

By Maryam BatoolPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

Can you come back?

Flies...

Finger-promises and those hugs

Your tangy words were my drugs

Knife...

You Loved again; How was the new sight?

I dreamt it once—Turns out I was right!

Can you read my poem to her or recite?

Recite...

Read my words and it's the end of our Fight!

That night; Despite...

Author's note:

Hey, My thoughts came back from the vacation! Yayy!

I missed no one, you know! Tell me what do you say?
