Love And Blood Poem by Afzal Shauq

'The one
who laughs at you
is your well wisher
but the one who cries
for your damn condition
is your enemy.'

This your twisted
criteria of justice
Oh my dear brother...!
By love and blood bound
How can I prove
being so caught up
crying for your terrible life
makes it impossible
for you to hear
the cries of Pashto.
