Imagine If You Will Poem by Mohammad Younus

Imagine, if you will, a walk along the shore,
Where restless waves call out your name,
Their whispers weaving through the wind,
A song both fleeting and eternal.

The tide kisses your weary feet,
Yet pulls away before you grasp—
A dance of longing, ever lost,
A dream that fades as dawn arrives.

Imagine, if you will, a mountain high,
Its peak obscured by mist and cloud,
Yet something in you aches to climb,
To touch the sky beyond the shroud.

Each step defies the weight of fear,
Each fall a lesson, sharp yet kind.
And when at last the summit clears,
The truth unveiled is light, not stone.

Imagine, if you will, a woodland deep,
A labyrinth of shadowed trails,
Where echoes lead you far astray,
And every turn obscures the way.

Yet through the hush of ancient trees,
A golden glade begins to gleam,
And there, beyond the veils of doubt,
Awaits the love that never leaves.

Imagine, if you will, a world reborn,
No walls of self to guard the soul,
No chains of fear, no swords of scorn,
No hunger for what was never whole.

No longer lost in fleeting forms,
No longer bound by time's cruel tide,
But free to drink the endless dawn,
Where nothing breaks, and none divide.

Imagine, if you will, the stars above,
Not distant fires, but paths of light,
Each guiding step a truth recalled,
Each breath dissolving false delight.

You drift beyond the silent void,
Beyond the dream, beyond the known—
Until at last, you reach the shore
That was within you all along.

Imagine, if you will…
And tell me now, what do you see
A soul unchained, a heart made whole,
A sea that mirrors light, not fear.
The fleeting waves no longer call,
For I have learned to stand sincere.

I see the mountain, clear and bright,
Its peak no longer lost in mist.
No struggle left, no need to climb—
I am the height I once had missed.

I see the forest, vast yet known,
Its winding paths no longer maze.
The golden glade was never far,
Just hidden by my restless gaze.

I see a world where love prevails,
Where walls dissolve and souls embrace.
No more the grasp, no more the chase,
Just boundless peace in endless space.

I see the stars—they are not far,
Nor separate, nor cold, nor high.
They shine within, they pulse as me,
No longer lost, no need to fly.

I see the shore I longed to find,
The home that whispered all along—
Not distant, not beyond the sky,
But here, within this silent song.
