Afzal Shauq Poems

Love...
Long exhausting
the journey.
Between us...
...

Am I...
Strange Lord
of your heart
...

I was proud
the lifetime of success
And in celebration
The face of my dreams
...

The ancestor's sword
is all you have left
the last sign of your
freedom and pride...
...

Now suffer
poor lost passenger,
the fault is yours...
...

Love...
deafens
blinding.
fearless
...

' Lots of days
and even nights passed,
I never had a smile on my face,
and how could I smile?
...

'The one
who laughs at you
is your well wisher
but the one who cries
...

Our homes
situated such
That I see you
and you see me
...

People's mouths
red with blood
eating the flesh
of human kind
...
