Analysis of I am in you

Shaila Elahi 1978 (Dhaka)



I am in you

If you want to hear me,
I am in the wind which you cannot see.
Like the morning breeze,
Creating a sense of peace.
If you want to see me smile,
Look at the moon which is away for miles.
If you want to see my missing face,
Look at the mountains which stand by grace.
If you want to hear my laughter,
Look at the fountain after.
If you want to feel my warmth,
Look it in the love you give forth.
If you ever miss my words,
Read my poems afterwards.
When you will look at in the mirror,
You will feel me nearer.
In your face you will see my reflection,
With all the memories with perfection.
To miss me you have reasons very few,
Because I live in you.
I am in you.
