A Fool Is Happier Than You Poem by Dr Kamran Haider Bukhari

A Fool Is Happier Than You

Rating: 4.7


Crimson lights of innate desires
Reincarnating the germs of my lustful heart
Beauty of my gifted brain
Walking like a horny cat on its naked feet
Hold on
My mind, heart and soul
Please hold on

Kamran!
You need not this world
Neither the glittery rays of false hopes
Emerging through the skins of true beauties
Nor the orgasmic surges of illusory lust
Falling from the heights of erected fantasies

Kamran!
Your are naïve
You know not the real story
Don’t inquire that from every soul
Nobody knows it
Except yours own severed self

The eve is gloomy
The day was tiring
The night would be restless
You have wasted all your life
Thinking, thinking and thinking
And in the end what you have got
A painful insight
And the vision of a fortune teller
You know what gonna happen next
But you can never change it

Kamran!
I ask you
Please don’t interpret your vague dreams
Don’t search for the hidden signs
Don’t turn your ears to the unheard melodies
Don’t feel the pulse of dying humanity
Just live like a fool
I assure you
You’ll be happier than ever

Please don’t interpret your vague dreams Don’t search for the hidden signs Don’t turn your ears to the unheard melodies Don’t feel the pulse of dying humanity Just live like a fool I assure you You’ll be happier than ever Fantastic self talk.with being self and self-other reflexive. I really like it.

Ah, yes, blessed ignorance! We need it so much often. To live with half closed eyes is better, I guess. You use to create very good deep poems from your own pain. So, pain is not in vain in this case :) . Nice beginning of the poem 'Crimson lights of innate desires'...
