by Ehsan Sehgal
Whom shall I love
No such heart is there
Which shall I join the forum
No such forum is there
Why should I complain to anyone
It is my destiny and fate
Where shall I take my boat
None of the beaches are here
My desires are thirsty
For your love
I just faced the grief
And pain of the heart
In your love
If you know what love is fire,
But no flame barrier in your life
I know every hard circumstance
I am leaving your city
I do not know
Where is my destination
