Mahfooz Ali Poems

People come and people go
Years pass quickly by
This world was made by a Allah I can't see
And I am wondering how and why.
...

I am screaming on the inside...
Can you hear me?
I fall on the floor...
Do you help me?
...

Dreams are like doorways,
to a soul that has been buried,
as I stood there I could see,
with absolute clarity the betrayal,
...

As I searched the depths of my heart
for love I know was once delightful
the security became a stranger
a result of ruins in an eyeful
...

To take a peek behind the couch,
I as a child lurks and crawls.
A spy, a sneak,
I makes no sound at all.
...

On my desk of memories
lies a blank page,
an unaddressed envelope,
and pretty pictures of my love.
...

What would I do without you?
I would die,

What would I do if you could not see?
...

What do you do when you think you're in love?
And that love comes from far up above?
When you first notice the feelings,
do you show them?
...

Because of words that were never spoken
the truth is sometimes lost.
With love there is suppose to be
communication, but when silence
...

If I should one day leave and disappear,
promise to remember my love for you.
Watch white cotton clouds drifting heaven’s blue,
I am the soft mist reaching to keep you near.
...
