For You Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

The mother lioness to the cub whispered,
"Hold the cup, but be thyself"
You come of age, the tune is now,
Not suffice. Go bring back
Chords from skies.
Your gaze how. I see stars drown
In the molten ice. For you,
The love, has woven though,
A flower fresh on the bosom.
