Naveed Akram Poems

An obstacle results from a living of going berserk,
This is clockwork, occupation, business of brickwork.
The barriers we cross are like that for the opening,
Offering are loans and pluck, the distance of beckoning.
...

Love must spare in a way,
Its inner sides do sway.
Love is innocent when we engage,
Importance of its meaning is a stage.
...

A ball rolls in dozens of ways,
Like dice or spells of magic-days.
The game we play is to entertain,
You must roll dice and it is hard to attain.
...

Take a lower place is this institution we call happiness,
For then the dogmas are reduced, forever a pledge is witnessed.
This sadness is my place, letting freezing temperatures
Make us a simpleton, a sensible robe to wear.
...

Sending to the other half a letter,
I write towards the edge of insanity,
As royal favours mark the considerations
Like oil of the gun and oil of the pun.
...

I say a No to life if I'm a doubter of trades
Or a rejector of wishes for another being;
Throughout my career the lesions are separate,
Brain after brain resound in the heavens
...

The bags of fun one destroys are nothing,
Gels of the loose change combine to fester
And cost the individual an arm and leg.
The funny men of the decade are murder
...

Someone always enjoys the spring of the year,
I already share my thoughts with the summer of the year;
A lovely ending is a gracious beginning,
One has relationships to enlighten
...

One forgets people who disappear only twice,
Underneath the visage is a hidden fault
To be masked for all eternity;
Like the offices of the state that ponder on the crowds
...
