Mehreen Tahir Poems

I cannot say…
My heart whispers,
silently cajoling me,
urging to give voice to a thousand thoughts,
...

The white flower,
single and pure,
swaying, as if laughing,
fresh and shining,
...

The clouds make way,
for the sun to make a smooth appearance,
as the golden ball emerges,
and envelopes the darkness of night,
...

That feeling of elation,
The joy,
Adrenaline pumping through my veins,
Like being on cloud nine,
...

A spells the Aero planes that so fascinated me,
B spells the Baby dolls I had,
C spells the Cartoons I loved watching,
D spells my first ever Dictionary,
...

The silence of the night,
Is broken,
By the sound of rain,
The drops hitting against the roof,
...

Words are not just spoken by people;
they are echoes of the heart and mind.
Words are like waves of an ocean,
that wash away the shore.
...

The heart weeps,
For itself; its bearer,
Giving vent to the feelings,
Of loss, despair,
...

Looking out the window,
On an overcast day,
The brave senses the impending storm,
With dark clouds hovering,
...

Creativity is,
freedom to express,
to imagine,
what the world is,
...

I thought it was you,
when I heard the voice,
but the words sounded alien,
so harsh,
...

12.

Sometimes I feel angry,
for I am the tormentor,
the beast that oppresses,
and puts in cages,
...

I am a human being,
a tiny speck of life,
a mere object,
or maybe just a shadow,
...

I hear that my destiny has been written down,
my fate already decided,
then how do I stray from the path,
the right path?
...

15.

Early morning,
it shines,
as dew on the grass.
It falls from the sky,
...

The colours of life are so many,
so pretty and different,
yet so alike in many ways.
They add to the beauty,
...

17.

It shines high up in the sky,
it twinkles and looks so bright,
it’s a speck in the dark night,
shining away in the universe so wide,
...

A spring in my step,

I take the first leap,
...

An empty canvas,
waiting for the painter to put colour on it.
Muted agony,
waiting for words to fill the void.
...

Spring is here,
the skies are clear,
daffodils are swaying in the breeze!
...

The Best Poem Of Mehreen Tahir

I Cannot Say...

I cannot say…
My heart whispers,
silently cajoling me,
urging to give voice to a thousand thoughts,
running around in my mind,
but my stomach is in knots,
a lump in my throat,
beginning to appear,
as my breathing becomes shallow,
and a million unsaid worries,
strangulate me,
locking the words in my mouth,
and throwing the keys away,
leaving me silent,
for no reason at all.

I cannot say…
A million things I dream of,
but speaking,
for me,
is not a coherent expression of what I think,
as I struggle,
to find the right words,
the suitable voice,
the appropriate moment,
the untangling of knots in my stomach,
the lump in my throat to dissolve,
and the worries to loosen their stranglehold,
but it’s not easy,
and for the time being,
I cannot say…
But one day maybe,
I’ll say it all…
