Tell me is it more than friendship? Poem by Laiba Bashir

Tell me is it more than friendship?

When I fell into those dark brown eyes

The eyes in which I see surging emotion of love

Tell me is it more than friendship?

When I can picture the contour of your face

The texture of your skin that makes it distinctive

Tell me is it more than friendship?

When I become all blotchy on hearing your name

The twisting of my stomach and the flustered mind

Tell me is it more than friendship?

When I long for you in your absence

Your laughter and your jokes and twitchiness of my smile

Tell me is it more than friendship?
