Naveed Akram Poems

How certain is the love we sought so near?
The loves of certainty are great and dark,
My hatred goes to those I hate and bark
Near emptiness and justice to appear.
...

Luck reminds me of sin,
Sins collect from the odour.
A fortune fades, faces do fight,
How do we describe the sins?
...

Fast and slow, after the speed has shown,
We travel as far as heaven, and run back.
This distance denigrates our holiness,
It is sometimes a face, some of us tearfully resign.
...

Do we indulge in natural feasts?
The feasts of beautiful food are hued
And flared with wonderful fruity smells,
Born from the springs of above,
...

The dough of fright is deed enough,
Letters abide in the cherished fight,
I ought to decide, I ought to divide.
So I sigh without a leader, I might die
...

I admire the hated beings of our sight,
The sailors met the beginnings of our sight.

The sea of hate is a grass of the greatness,
...

To see me frightened of the course in life,
My scared duty abides buttoned in the course of life.

To see the cherished being from around the clock,
...

I am admired due to lack of sleep, this innocent sleep,
That swims along the boardroom, in an innocent sleep.

I fix the chairman with eyes so bedazzled by him,
...

That running away is from the death,
Death justifies itself by accusing, staring
And poking the eyes out, with sting and wing;
Tomorrow the dying ceases, as we strive
...

Celebrated jewellery is a worthy sum of thought,
It thinks and behaves with beauty as the skies;
The shining sun enters the realer district like eyes,
Feeding a frenzy as the alert victims stumble.
...
