☆ Eternal Longings (The Bliss of English Shayari)  ☆

(Some couplets)

☆☆☆☆

☆ Heartthrob…? ☆

How can anyone say that

Heart is in chest only…?

My fingers too throb deeply

Whenever I write to you…!

☆☆☆☆

 ☆ Unhealed Wounds ☆ 

Wound is of the separated soul

So the pain is rather intense….

Silent lips are the sentinels

of the incomplete fairytale…

☆☆☆☆

☆ Shattered Ego ☆ 

He lost to me but his gentle

conceding pat on my back…

Shattered my ego, my victory,

my pride to the smithereens..!

☆☆☆☆

☆ Lethal Glance ☆

Was trudging along merrily

in the journey of my life…

Your casting a glance on me

made the journey go astray…
