Heart Poem by Faeza gilani

.
Heart ah heart is a dungeon of thoughts,

A prison which never lets us leave or fight

We are imprisoned in it for life.

It’s a cloud of memories which fall without any call;

Creates ripples in static waters of our mind

takes us back in time;

In search of those loved ones

who slipped away from our lives.

Heart ah heart is a restless river of emotions

Red hot lave of pain burns, and flows through the veins.

Wildly running towards it’s unknown ocean.

Heart ah heart is a cold cold slab of ice

Neither does it set nor does it melts just keeps us frozen inside.

Heart ah heart is a vast dessert longing for it to rain.

Ah heart, Oh heart, It’s strange,

SO strange,

All this suffering all this pain.

yet it hungers,

and searches for someone to love and be loved again.

Doesn’t even care if it shatters into millions of pieces

which could never be gathered together and it may not remain.
