Away from the Beloved's City

Have you seen a fish pulled out of sea?
Witnessed how it yearns to return?
Have you felt its pain when it twists and turns?
It's how my broken heart throbs ever since
Leaving my Beloved's City. I am
Weak at heart and cannot bear pangs
Of painful torturous separation.
Away from my Beloved, I shall
Suffocate like the fish pulled out of sea.
