HAKAM ABUBAKAR Poems

Knowing i wanted
You gave and were true
I did ask, but dithered
But willingly, you took me through
...

Dear mirror
when you replicate my image
do so with sincerity
delve into my silent soul
...

I wonder how relations could
turn fickle
How pious bonds could turn to
be brittle
...

These promises I make are not to
lull your heart
I make them because they must come
alive
...

Dont ask me how the days go by
Don't tell me to keep mute
and the realities deny
If a sparkle flares up, the rains could
...

I shall narrate the tale of the restlessness
of the heart
With frankness I shall narrate without interpolating
the fact
...

Your piercing silence has now become a torment
Your striking silence looms like a torrent
Into consideration take my displeasure and grant
me clemency
...

Who are we to question the ways of the Disposer
when His moves and commands are beyond reproach
when in our qualms and displeasure He has a soothing a
answer
...

For how long should i keep getting
lost, struggling and striving
In your admiration? How I am smitten
In your desire, I burn
...

Ahead lies a future where
we are obnoxious of
Where we can only envisage
but not make a reality of
...
