Apocalypse Poem by Naveed Khalid

What use this verse that by reading more
oft by a shadow goes blind this far-fetched sky;
but which by eyes is writ thrice
before all hath vanished from sight,
I wish I could see thy metaphysics
when you turn'd thy face in the mirror,
that reality never matched the world:
and eveything was in the mind;
else by beauty be no more
than what by love I behold,
except for illusion of this light,
this paint'd sky reflects not in thine eye.
