The broken Glasses and Plastic Plates The broken mirrors that tell the tales Of life I once spent in shadows The lingering fears I silently swallowed All the birthdays never celebrated Tools and Knives contemplated Hidden in the boxes, never to be found Pistol in drawer with empty rounds The music played but there's no sound Within the walls of the haunted house I knew that place,  I knew it well My only home, we had to sell Bitter memories, I try to forget 'Hide away , records and cassettes' Take down the frames, hide the pictures 'He'll tear it all',  said my sister The calls for help, you may not hear Don't listen to the music, don't cover your ears One cloudy day, I came back home To find her face, in a bluish tone Pretended that I never saw Raging pain in my fainting heart It was a brick, he intended to use Changed his mind, just punched and bruised I loved that record, I loved it much He threw it away, it melted in the sun I loved that picture in golden frame He tore it apart, it was never the same The life went on like this forever Sky sees light, that our hearts could never......to be continued...

Broken Glasses and Plastic Plates
The rain whispered to the leaves, "She needs my music to silent the restless echoes, but I can't sustain". The leaves rustled, "Farewell my friend" And then she read in the psithurism of the trees.

Reading on the Patio on a Rainy Day
If I could see the world through my brother's eyes  Perhaps, Truths would turn to lies And the lies, truths If I could feel the world through his skin Perhaps, My wrists would burn from all the friction Of the restrains and caused affliction If I could hear the world through his ears The names calling and all the smears Would never fade, only I could hear If I could be him for just one day, Perhaps I drown in the gushing fears O God! if I could see my brother through your eyes Would I see a human or a firefly?

If I could be him
What good is love that does not last Melts your heart and then departs Yet peels with it, the livid pieces That enfold but lust, in filthy creases So seek the love of One above Whose fire is light, that lights the dust Thus shimmering dots of dust's your whole Traces the line that leads you Home

Lust Love Lost Light
If only I could preserve her motherhood in a bottle of glass, I could have forever slept in the luminous embrace of its hypnotic tenderness.

Warmth of Womb
The absence of stillness is time. Time and stillness cannot coexist. Time is never your present for as you spell your very moment, it has already become your past. Make haste or sleep, but do not waste the energy of "unstill", you owe it to Nature.

Do It
Against the gentlest ashen bones n’ flesh I brush my skin and devour this gest Driveling to stretch these moments last For let me relish this spell afore; My beloved becomes my precious past On this illusory floor of lustrous dreams I smash the glass of self-esteem Tapping and whirling until I’m bereaved For let me evanesce in pulse afore; The hour is struck of my beloved’s leave I pluck the leaves of my insanity n’ grief And brew it well with my rusty belief On this unsullied tongue I taste the wine For let me drink before they lift; Walls around my beloved’s shrine Over the tormented waters; I build a wharf and cast my woes And I lay in peace as a sleeping child Whilst averting noises n’ my cries For let me rest in peace afore; Veils are laid as my beloved dies

Let Me;
The colors that best define the beauty of colors is black and white; hence the reason my memories are all grey, for they preserve the best of colors of life.

The Best of Colors
O’ bewailed seeker of the seeker Wandering in the corridor of tenet Yet opening doors as a blind valet To the master of secular need That materialistic greed On your slumping soul it feeds Won’t you lift the veil from your heart? For the doors are new yet all the same To the rooms of silken gold of shame O’ lamented! To annihilate this lust and moist your lips Don’t cup your hand, nor take the sip “To quench this thirst, be the sea” Your heart is vessel so sail THIS ship Cruise the waters; sail wide and strive Dig the hole deep, drown and rise O’ grieving self Now you conserve the flame of “fikr” You are the sea yet how good is When contained in self, veiling the bliss? “To quench your thirst, be the rain” Sprinkle the leaves and be that trail Of lush green ivy once livid and pale Undone the knots and unlock the chains, For the dust, for the smoke and the fading lights Aren’t those ones who have most right? “But to be the rain, must be that vapor” That gazes at “shams” and let it burn The glistening surface of its being Surrenders its berth of cradling sea And submits its sole to the Highest being A sage once said Fire and Rain Are in unison; are one name Immortality!

Immortality
It always hurts to turn and finish last pages of the book.
