She Must Be Killed Poem by Prof Niamat Ali Murtazai

She Must Be Killed



She snatched all peace of my heart,
She shattered to pieces life's cart,
With despair my heart she filled,
I asseert she must be killed.

Mercilessly, she cut my throat,
In hopeless sea sank my boat,
In fruitless deserts I tilled;
I asseert she must be killed.

My soul melted to worthless tears,
Happiness was shadowed by fears,
No desire my heart fulfilled;
I asseert she must be killed.

I threw to winds my dear life,
She slew my Self with ruthless knife,
To death my warm blood was chilled;
I asseert she must be killed.

Springs turned to bleak autumns,
Life was left mere in doldrums,
Sorrow in tea-cup was filled;
I asseert she must be killed.

A murderer must be murdered,
Without law, life is absard,
To torture she must be drilled;
I asseert she must be killed.

Don't kill her as I love her,
Crime was not done but through her,
In this art she was not skilled;
I asseert she must be killed.

The crime was committed by her desire,
Her desire burnt me in unseen fire,
Hence, her desire must be killed;
I asseert she must be killed.

But don't kill her desire too
It is this that combines us two,
The force that separated us must be killed;
I asseert she must be killed.
I asseert she must be killed.
