Justifications
Aslam M Nov 2024
In this Era we live …
Questions answered by Questions
There is no Right or Wrong.
But Lives are lost.  

We look in the past
Rather than the future
Blaming one and another
As Lives are lost.

We just keep on Justifying
The Whys and The How
While Millions Die

Not only am I ashamed
To be a part of this Era
Sad and Angry
As I am  helpless.

The Fire has started
Everyone is burning
Without Realising
Giving Stupid Justifications.

The Cup

Water takes  its own time
for Boiling
so does Milk.
Ultimately they both go

Depth of Words
Aslam M Apr 2018
Has the depth of words taken you far away from Reality.  
Or is it Reality taken us far away from the true meaning of our words.  

The disturbances in our sentences coming in form of pauses creates gaps in the flow of our thoughts. Or is it designed to be there to make our words more and more meaningful.  

Dazzled I am with how we so talk so fluently at times.  Especially when we lie and lie most of the times. And so with a heavy heart and sentences full of pauses do we always speak the Truth so that we can hide our fear in the self created gaps and pauses.

Muharram
Aslam M Jul 2023
In the sacred realm of time's embrace,
Where Muharram's days find their place,
A journey starts, both mourn and reflect,
In solemn ways, hearts genuflect.

Amidst the echoes of ancient lore,
A tale unfolds, a truth to restore,
Where valor clashed with the oppressor's might,
In the battle's shadows, courage took flight.

A legacy kept, through ages long,
Preserving essence, a sacred song,
From whispered verses to silent scrolls,
The truth endures, as history unfolds.

Yet, some shadows seek to distort,
With veiled lies, they aim to exhort,
Fabrications woven into the fray,
To hide the truth, lead hearts astray.

But steadfast souls stay true and strong,
In the face of change, they right the wrong,
With wisdom gleaned from ancient art,
They guard the essence, they won't depart.

In moments dark, their light will shine,
Upholding sanctity, a sacred sign,
Through trials faced, they'll persevere,
To keep the truth forever near.

And as the cycles of time renew,
In Muharram's days, the story's true,
In hidden verses, hearts shall seek,
The timeless lessons they'll still speak.

Long Drive
Aslam M Jun 2018
Having drove for miles......
Sometimes in  long dark tunnels.

The fear increases to its maximum.
The Pain at times is unbearable.  

No choice but to  Drive Fast.
The Pain then transforms into a Smile.

Dreams
Aslam M Nov 2023
Dare to dream, either big or small
Dare to dream, rather not at all
It gives u joy, it gives u hope
With all the odds u can cope

Don't go aimless, for the fear
Of your life going haywire
Sky is the limit, aim for the stars
As u start achieving, raise the bars..

The Thunderstorm
Aslam M Oct 2024
In a fierce thunderstorm,
you’re bound to get wet—
so why blame the umbrella?
Sometimes, even our best defenses can’t shield us completely from life’s storms. Instead of looking to cast blame, we might find peace in accepting that some challenges are inevitable. It’s not about avoiding every raindrop but learning to weather them with grace.

Words Words and more Words
Aslam M Jun 2018
Words words and more words....
Empty meaningless weightless words....
The patent words the jargon words....
The sugar coated fake spurious words...

At first they are the mirthful words...
Slowly transform to blithely words...
The words that heal and the hurting words...
I’ve lived with them all kinds of words...

But words are just but only words...
No life no feel no bleed these words...
The love and dreams and hopeful words...
Are but just only laboured words...

My Mind
Aslam M Nov 2023
Too many things on my mind,
O! I wanna unwind,
How I just want to relax,
Take a few things off my back.

Heart says- Hey! Slow down there,
Mind says- Gear up! Things may go astray,
Wondering into the space I stare,
Balancing seems the only way.

Trust ()
Aslam M Jun 2018
So many years passed by
Trust you me not ?

So many endless talks
Trust you me not ?

So many feelings shared
Trust you me not ?

Better not to talk
Trust me you not ?
Trust being the essential Ingredient in any relationships but at times some always have doubts on the other inspite of so many heart to heart and endless talks over years.  In the end its better not to continue in that relationship where Trust is expected but not given.

Final GoodBye
Aslam M Nov 2023
Through the years, time slipped away,
Love for Dad unsaid, in the fray.
Busy lives, work's relentless tide,
Expressions of love, we chose to hide.

Decades danced with a business theme,
Heartfelt conversations remained a dream.
Hospital walls, a stark reality,
God's grace granted a final decree.

In silence, his eyes spoke profound,
Unspoken love, a connection unbound.
In those weeks, a sacred space,
Emotions unveiled in that tender embrace.

"I love you," whispered, long overdue,
Appreciation expressed, feelings true.
Regret lingered, a silent, haunting cry,
Wishing sooner, love didn't shy.

Millions lament, words left unsaid,
In the heart, the weight of what's dead.
Share your love before the dusk,
Life's too brief, an ephemeral husk.

Speak your heart, let emotions flow,
Before the final, inevitable blow.
For in silence, regret finds its reign,
Express your love, release the pain.

No Response
Aslam M Feb 2020
And then there are times.
When we talk talk and talk.  
Will pour our Hearts.
Will try not to Cry.
But no matter what
There will be no Response.
The time when we meet our dear ones in the Grave Yard. Missing my Dad already. Its been only 10 days.

Sand Castle
Aslam M Sep 2019
A long long time ago.  
She made a Sand Castle.
Hard Work Finally Paid.
Then came the men with their horses
Broke everything  with great force.
She lost everything and cried.
Built the Sand Castle again.
Then came other men with their horses.
Broke everything again with great force.
She lost everything once again and cried.
But Built the Sand Castle again.
She would Build and They would break.
This has been going on  for so long.
The Sand Castle now remains
Waiting for the Horses and its Men.

Pain ….
Aslam M Oct 2024
A heart that beats in quiet pain,
A longing voice, yet calls in vain.
The stars look down with silent glow,
As dreams of warmth fade soft and slow.

Each whispered hope, a fleeting flame,
Fades like the dusk, but who’s to blame?
The days stretch on, the nights grow long,
In search of where the heart belongs.

Yet through the shadows, love remains,
A gentle balm for unseen chains.
Though paths may twist and seem unclear,
The soul still seeks, despite the fear.

For even in the deepest night,
A spark still yearns to find its light.

The Doors.
Aslam M Jun 2018
The Sight of those beautiful doors
Elegant and Delicate to the core.  

Beyond them I see well covered  Walls
Dim Light with strong Side Supports

Those Passages are  Asymmetry
Leads to the Un Explored Mystery.

As the Storms comes
These Doors Open Wide.  

The Winds Enters with Full Force.
And makes the most soothing voice.

I am now stuck at these Doors
Waiting for the Storm to go.
This is about the hesistation and fear we have before starting a New Project.  The Door is the Proposal and Asymmetry is the Risk.

The Makers of the Board
Aslam M Aug 15
While we all play the game,
Chasing wealth and fame,
Moving by rules we never wrote,
On squares we barely note.

A chosen few, unseen, unheard,
Carve the edges, draw the gird,
They choose the size, they set the rules.
We play the game ,  they make the board.

My Friend
Aslam M May 20
You stood with me through storm and fire,
Shared dreams that lifted, hopes that inspired.
We built from dust, with calloused hands,
A vision stitched from shifting sands.

We laughed in light, we fought through shade,
And for a time, the fears did fade.
You gave your heart, your strength, your will,
And walked beside me up the hill.

But life has turns we can’t foresee,
And now you say you must break free.
Not out of spite, or loss of care—
But need, and weight too much to bear.

I see the truth behind your eyes,
The quiet hurt, the last goodbyes.
And though it cuts, I understand:
Not all can stay and still withstand.

So go with grace, not guilt, not shame,
You’ve carved your part into this flame.
The road diverges, and that’s okay—
Our bond was real, if not to stay.

And I’ll keep walking, lone but whole,
Still burning with the same old soul.
For those who leave, and those who’ve gone

Your footprints help me carry on.

Nostalgia
Aslam M Jun 2018
Do not stare at me with those eyes
Paralysing me completely in disguise

The depth of your effect is too deep
Sadness in my heart I  may no longer keep.  

The nostalgic moments returned to haunt
with the sounds of laughter and taunt.

The sarcastic smile now followed me for a while
Wanting me to go forever in exile.  

As you completely ignored  as our eyes met.
Revealed the lies and game you played as yet

Shattered my soul with those words u said.
Putting  me ultimately to eternal rest.
My First Poem.

We all can just watch this show.

Indeed this entire world has gone mad.
