Postcard Poem by Lubna Hazeem

I got a postcard this morning
Full of mysterious warnings
The midnight is soaring....
And streetlight are glowing....
I don't want to be alone tonight....
I don't want to feel like im not alright...
When i can't choose between wrong or right....
When you don't want me there by your side....
Like i can no longer decide....tonight

You could pour me in a glass
Let the veins spill it fast
And i could bleed it all...
And it could be a loss....
It could be a terrible fault...
And it could end it all.....

This punishment could be cruel
But than i'd just be another fool
Who left the side of defying rules
And took the side of angry tools
You can drown a whole city in your blood
Filling in the holes by your mighty flood
The waves can crawl down to rise high up
To drown everything you used to love....

Everything you used to hold
Everything within your world
And you already know...
How far it can go.....
Where horizon shows....
That's what you've been told....
But you don't listen....
The words you've hidden....
You don't listen to what you hear...
Like there's no meaning to your tears....
Like it's not an answer and it ill not disappear...
You don't know that kind of fear....yet...

You say everything will fall apart
Even this planet's mighty stars
Still you question the same part....
Why does it have to be tougher to start....
It's tougher to start now.....

With the search
Beneath the blur
Trying to remember...
With a postcard....
A poscard in your hands....
