The Shadow In The Stars Poem by Asma Khan

Standing on the shore of stars
I witnessed a flying wish passed by me
a moment of trance struck me
when I stared back at the beauty
of that innocent sight

Showered my with bliss and laughter
I admired the ecstasy it held hard
a flash of glee startled me
how strange paths meet on the
galaxy of dreams

Chanting a tune of melody and carol
jazzed the lifeless heap of sorrows
An instant of joy dozed me
what a harmonious spell
absorbed my attention

Holding its memories tight in my fist
cried silently to let it go
a pleasure is always there
in letting loved ones go.
Why wouldn't you know this?

Pronounced myself alone and fragile
I wrapped myself well with gone days
wondered where could I find you then?
The shadow in the stars smiled at me
and I sighted my lost dream!
