Shameela Yoosuf Ali Poems

Strangled thoughts and crushed dreams…
Cursed was my being of endless gleams.
Do not bind me into a mundane seam…
As I lay serene in the twilight stream.
...

As I sit dissolving into the ageless sky
Once blue with my tears
yet again mauve with my blisses
My gist gaits along the kites swiftly.
...

The long road spreads beyond the crimson horizon
Endless grains of sand miserable and forlorn
Reminding the aborted trails of a civilization
...

Noon sun shone baking the roadside stones.
On my doorstep, a shadow fell motionless.

Torn was his clothes an unkempt being.
...

Sun goes down leaving memories Red and orange
The turquoise sky wears a crimson drape
Birds fly soaring home,
Their wings sprinkling darkest of the nights…
...
