Beauty of Music
Aminah Aleem Oct 27
Waves of vibrantly charmed,
peaks and lows,
tuned to souls upon souls.

Through the ears,
humming and drumming,
these sensational mellows.

Vibrating to their highs,
opening my eyes,
to what i love,
and know.

Swatching Lipstick
Aminah Aleem Oct 27
Coating the contoured edges of my lips,
A small tilted corner,
reveals a smile.

Velveted swatches,
as each swipe of color,
brightens,
a whelved style.

Loosen Bones
Aminah Aleem Oct 27
Hold me still,
enclose me,
against your skin,
warming me like a blanket

I’m cold,
out of control,
shivers burst beneath my spine,
bones,
firm and strong,
feel weak in time

Who will carry me,
future me,
me as in a girl…
who can’t even see a week.


Frantic i am,
uncertain about it,
what feels like an unraveling curtain,
this girl is hurtin’
buried,
in her desertion.
A novice poet <3
