Nosheen Irfan Poems

Half-shaded in the afternoon
The marbled floor smudged
By the acacia shadow
Awaits the summer breeze
...

Though eyes speak eloquently
Revealing the depths of soul
Mirroring the bottom of the heart
Where you keep the best
...

Words refuse to configure themselves
Structures lack a solid foundation
That's how designs have shaped
No cognitive plot lies at the base
...

Sultry heat
A tad bit softened
But concrete is still burning
With rays of summer
...

Fed on power lust
Bloody squabble of kingly egos
Nobody wins this game.
...

When you search silence
Inside your heart
But hear nothing but screams
That's when you know it all
...

The vagueness of life
So accentuated by fog
Each morning reminds
We are travellers of unclear paths
...

Neither of us knows
where we are heading
Yet your smile glows
Like a flowering of hope
...

To forget
To forgive
To shut out
Of all memories
...

You don't exist
In vapours
In ambiguity of silent
Exhalations
...
