Truth (No 1) Poem by Aftab Alam

Truth (No 1)

Rating: 5.0


Should I kill the shadow of mine? Lo
That walks with me where ever I go
More stronger it is in the bright light
In darkness weaken more, have sight
And know where you stood…….

When, boiling orange peep’d in the east
Shadow elongated towards the west
Demanding more brightness to prosper
At dusk, elongated in the east, with whisper
‘I seek refuse in Thy day break’

Allah, not only nourishes,
HE taught the mankind in many ways
