Poems forever
By John Donne
No man is an island,
Entire of itself;
Every man is a piece of the
continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away
by the sea,
Europe is the less,
As well as if a promontory were:
As well as if a manor of thy friend's
Or of thine own were.
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.
By Majda Ulfat
Apparently I am ready to face any trial
determined to walk
thousand a mile
with my big bright smile
believing that every struggle is worthwhile
But the lips which say
the line
I am alright, I am fine
the eyes that so brightly shine
they are not mine
Because there's a mask I wear
hiding all my despair
concealing every
nightmare
pretending as if walking on air
Beneath this adorned mask
real me helplessly asks
the providence of
impossible tasks
why there's no glory to bask
Through the mask no one can see
the real me, the melancholic me
the one left with no glee
the real me, the crying me
I yearn for a day when
all pains depart
when happiness finds
this foolish heart
then this mask will fall apart
ending its never-ending art…
By Ahmad Quddusi
I know a girl, who is different
In a way, that is consistent
When she talks, the cosmos stalks
When she smiles, the time stops
In her eyes, the eternity resides
When she cries, a distant star dies
Beautiful like aurora, deep like a black hole
I feel like a light, ignored by her gravity
I live in a constellation of different stars
I am small, pale, near death, simply a dwarf
But I know a girl
A girl
A girl like supernova
