Day after day, Night after nightI lose my heart vs. brain fight
You are away, somewhere just fine
Along you took that heart of mine
I say I try, but I know that’s a lie
I smile, I laugh, yet every moment I die
You are here, you are there
You are almost everywhere
I wish you joy before I sleep
Alone silently in the dark I weep
I don’t know how to forget
For I don’t know what to forget
Memories of time we spent together
Or the joy showered by your laughter
Thoughts filled with your fragrance
Or the tears advocating your absence
Your twinkling eye filled with joy
Or my love that denies to die
How can I forget you?
And then live too?

Loved it! Esp the first few lines...
And I'm adding a critique too... I think the title does not do justice to the poem. Also you need to check the grammar/spelling a bit...Don't mind this but I only thought it will help these well-expressed words. :)
the first two lines are the state of mind everyone would relate too... it's the most humane insight...
awesome work saher... but i am waiting for a happy prose from you... :-)
@ lovemarks - i agree with the spelling bit... but kabhi kabhi galti se mistake ho jaata hai :P so it's ok...
but grammar does not apply to poetry.
grammar is restricted to language and labguage was developed for speech.
poetry is man playing with language... hence grammar 'rules' do not apply
i suggest you too, while writing poetry, ignore grammar. you will see thoughts structuring more collectively...
