Poems forever
Death
By W.B.Yeats
Nor dread nor hope attend
A dying animal;
A man awaits his end
Dreading and hoping all;
Many times he died,
Many times rose again.
A great man in his pride
Confronting murderous men
Casts derision upon
Supersession of breath;
He knows death to the bone
Man has created death.
// E N - E Q U A L I T Y //
By Haseeb Sultan
tell me
who’s rich
and
who’s poor.
I’ll tell
you
I
just don’t care.
Stars
By Madiha Viquar
Stars,
My only companions in lonely nights,
Twinkling,
Shining,
Glistening,
Glittering,
Flecking the skies.
Appearing to me like beams of hope
Amidst the darkness and chaos.
Encouraging me to start a new life
Every new day
Despite my ceaseless falls.
Not rebuking me for the chances missed or the time lost.
But,
Just standing by me,
Loyal and faithful.
Stars,
My only companions in lonely nights.
Senseless
By Sohaib Arshid
I inhale my sins every day,
Like marijuana in the night,
So I can sense what I can do,
When I don’t see the right
I blow the candles that light,
My room like winter mornings,
So I can sense the darkness,
And all its sudden warnings
I cut my wings that help,
Me fly the bluish skies,
So I can sense how to walk,
Among the human cries,
That’s why I don’t talk to you,
For days with restless sighs,
So you can sense the love,
Between you and me
Bliss
By Mehma Kunwar
Carving the world’s happiness
Upon my soul
I dance higher towards the sky
Just as the jealous pain shows up
In my heart
I dance higher towards the sky
No greed for the stars, no desire for the moon
In the darkness that prevails
I’ll be the light that shines.
When the clouds wrap me
And the wind blinds the eyes
I’ll be the light that shines.
Alone, I conquer my wishes
Throned on the magic whorls
Of bliss
Solely held by God
As I dance higher towards the sky
I’ll be the only light that shines
Thoughts
By Zainab Imran
Yellow leaves
numb hands
Cold blood
And remains of birds everywhere
Silent night
long roads
a girl walking
with nothing
but
unbearable weight of
THOUGHTS!
Walking alone
and silently!
Hiding from people
in search of what?
Reflecting and thinking!
with a will To Write
as if it’s the least
she could do..
for herself...
