Thoughts in anticipation of meeting the lover--in Ghazal form of poetry
LOVE’S SUSPENSE—a ghazal


My love I’m going to meet today.
Everything is so sweet today.

I got up sweating in the night
Wondering about the heat today.

I dreamt that I was with my love
Under a silken sheet today.

When I meet my love this evening
My heart will miss a beat today.

My life has been disorderly
But I must be discreet today.

Oh! I just can’t wait any more.
Wish I could fly the street today.

Love’s suspense is killing Khalish.
I want to make it neat today.


* A ghazal consists of couplets in which the last 1-3 words of both lines of the first couplet and each second line of the subsequent couplets are repeated as refrain [called radeef], while the word immediately preceding the refrain is a rhyming one and is called monorhyme or kaafia.
