Promises Haunt
written by: Khurram Nizami
@khurramnizami
Had I kept my promises made to you,
I would have been happier lot today.
The words which were for pleasure,
Are haunting me now forever.
Skepticism is now my companion,
Loneliness befriends me often.
Soul searches the mate,
left behind somewhere down the memory lane.
Dream asks me the reason to appear
I ask them the reason to disappear.
One day dreams will come to my eyes,
Let’s see when that night happens in my life.
