When the answer is you...

The Heart’s Final Answer

By Maryam BatoolPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

I knew a moon that circled the earth

What moon is this that circles you?

We believed that Aroma was gifted to flowers

When did fragrance leave them and come to you?

The Blue Ocean was accused of drowning lives in it

When did you snatch that acquisition and secure it to you?

Yesterday I loved the bird and its fathomless song

Today you spoke— Why I just wanna listen to you?

They say 'mistakes' aren't always meant to be forgiven

Do eyes wear a blindfold if the doer of mistake is you?

I thought my Love was Magnanimous and charitable

When did I become selfish and save it just for you?

"Actions speak louder than words", I thought it was true

But I fell for a single word, and I fell harder—It was "YOU"

My paradoxical questions make me numb and dumb

My heart feels at ease when the answer is you
