Whenever in pain you are,
comes to your mind
no one but me.
No possible way out, you're stuck,
light at the end of the tunnel
you can not see.*
So you come to me crying,
assuming that I might be dying
to have you meddling in my life
wishful thinking it is so
uselessly keep on trying.
For all your affection
and each and every emotion
I had shown appreciation
through my utter devotion
No more you're my weakness
To you I have no attachment
as I have broken through
your strong enchantment
You might be aching now
atleast not faking now
the feelings that you showed me
which were a hoax and mockery.
This might go on and on
until we both move on
So as I'm moving forward
hoping you too will be gone
from my sight.
Never want to hear
your future plights
never again
not after this fight.
Enough is enough,
I'm taking the next flight.
For I'm out of there
into the fresh air
I can breathe now
gone that flare
that burned before
between us for sure
this time *
we are
not us not anymore.
Ali Qureshi Mar 2017
These aren't just words;
they are parts of my soul.
If they mean something to you,
it brings meaning to my life and
I have bled for years now to fill
the gauntlet within your minds.
Now, I might just need—
fresh blood.

Always trying new ways to figure out the best writing I can get done.

Writing a haiku
It can't hold a candle to
The previous ones*

Sometimes you feel that you have to do better than ever before,
and you- kind of- fail.

Practicing my prose
Poetry and penmanship
Writing whatever
You

You
Me, a poet;
and You, my poetry.
Poetry I love.*

A thought
Ali Qureshi Feb 2017
The more I write about your beauty,
the more the words fail to describe it.
Ali Qureshi Mar 2017
If I can become the wind, I will.
If I can give you wings, I will.
And then selflessly become
the wind beneath your wings.*

For when you can't help but love someone,
with all you have got!
