The only thing I am left with – English poem by Ali Rasheed
The only thing I am left with – English poem by Ali Rasheed
The settling sun,
Reminds me of my settling times,
My heart drowns
And my brain sleeps in negligence.
The only thing I am left with – English poem by Ali Rasheed
The prodigious shadows
Of the little demons
Are trying to haunt
The satchel of my thoughts.
Makes a reflection
In the cistern of her desperate eyes,
The flickering wick
Of my rapturous soul.
Despite my defiant Audacity
I am forced by love
To melt and surrender
The pragmatic, romantic, intrinsic me.
Thus, my love left me of nowhere,
Roaming on the boulevard of broken – dreams
Yet, I will not call it a weakness,
As it is the only thing I am left with.
Poet: Ali Rasheed Fsc Pre-engineering GCU, Lahore.
