World Affairs And Beyond

In shadows cast by moonlight's gentle gleam, A tale of forbidden love, a secret dream. Two hearts as one, an untold truth concealed, A guarded secret, a love never revealed. Whispers in the night, a stolen glance, In the dance of secrecy, they took the chance. But lips could not confess what hearts did know, Their love, a hidden river's ceaseless flow. Oh, the world may never learn their sweet refrain, For they cannot disclose their love's true pain. In this life, they part, in silence they must grieve, But maybe in a next lifetime, they'll believe. In that distant realm where secrets find release, They'll share the love that yearned for endless peace. "I will let you know," their promise to renew, "How much I loved you, in that life, it's true." © Sobia Nosheen
