dismantle the sun
pour away the ocean
sweep away the wood
for nothing now
can ever
come to any good
poetry left me
left me in all forms
verse,couplets and meter
escaped me
escaped me
hidden in metaphor and similes
words no longer stir me
but die a hundred deaths
choking my parched veins
I no longer see words
dripping like hot lava
setting forest fires
cascading your wild hair
I am not the horse of wind
galloping high up in the skies
carrying messages to the moon..
dwelling your magical eyes.
nor am I the singing bird
nor am I the singing bird
collecting twigs of alphabets
weaving limericks nestled
in every fabric of your eyebrows
Gibran ,Hafez ,Rumi,Qabbani!!
what use is their sorcery
do you now picture my disease
a wanderer disrobed of language
allow me to pluck words
from the garden of your beauty
again lend wings to my bardic existence
baptize me with that one ' rare event '
again lend wings to my bardic existence
baptize me with that one ' rare event '
your ' beautiful face ' :(
