Dissolution

Posted on by Reena Saxena

My windows opened to an endless dream
Not knowing sunshine would shatter that gleam

I admired your elegance and measured moves
Now, why does your silence feel so extreme?

Your sophistication was an unspoken promise.
I dreamt of new worlds, naive as it may seem.

On a dark night, you were the moon serene
In Reena’s home, you dissolved like a dream

  7. Reena, this ghazal is beautiful. You’ve created such a unique version, with different words rhyming at the end of each stanza, instead of repeating the same word (or syllable) like in a traditional ghazal. I really love how you’ve made it your own—such a creative twist!

    Much love,
    David
