Aisha Sherazi Poems

Today I spied,
A lady on the street,
On the corner she stood,
Sandals on her feet.
...

This journey,
This life,
I embrace it with ease,
No longer lost,
...

The fences are up,
The doors locked tight,
The windows shut,
Curtains closed.
...

It’s nearness to Allah,
It’s nearness that I crave,
I need to feel You close,
Before I reach my grave.
...

It’s cold outside,
It’s blistering,
It’s biting,
And hurting my skin,
...

Illusions created,
Every single day,
Happiness, peace,
Never pave the way.
...

Wave upon wave,
Each one so grand,
The hand that carves each,
A single mighty hand.
...

Freedom of speech,
Is absolutely free,
Unless of course,
You're criticizing me.
...

One morning I awoke,
To find a stranger,
Perched on the edge of my bed,
I turned to my husband,
...

It's strange how,
She opens every cupboard and drawer,
And hangs from my clothes,
She throws things loudly,
...
