Like Wind... Like Sand... Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Like Wind... Like Sand...



like wind... like sand...
as illusion as firefly
flying over cold sea

the brutal scenes
are now descending
in shadowy endings

they liked to go ahead
to ask about inner wishes
and finally left, never regret

listening to the screams
that came from the stronghold
staining, some sour tears on themselves

It is always our own thoughts that cause the most distress.
