Recess
It is time
to run away,
Again.
One more time,
My heart is injured.
Blood
in my feeble veins,
Thrusting shy.
Now,
These lips, pale-dry.
And somehow and,
Before she curses
this heartless land.
As I begin to freeze,
I must flee,
Running away,
Again.
Where is it
that lost,
Remote a place?
Deserted for sure,
Where I camp,
I worry no more!
The truth,
This head is jammed.
Now,
I think
I need a break.
First,
I will make some fire!
So to warm this face.
I am bearing this face,
A stone!!!
Over my cold body.
I must nourish this fire,
With tree limbs,
With wood.
Reflecting,
I should,
In darkness.
As flames rise,
They hiss.
Drowning me
in dark space,
Careless,
I am careless
What (times) I miss.
Around this fire,
Staying awake
till a fresh dawn.
Where skies cheerful,
Where ferries
scare them away
A strayed demon.
Alone!
Breathing purple shadows,
Inhaling descent air.
May be,
I should pause for a while,
To think of
"Henry"
Waiting,
Anticipating in his cave.
Edgy,
He is jittery,
Suspended Henry.
Walking back and forth,
Then,
Falling down,
Crying!
On the broken bench.
Besieged, my Henry!
I can't tell that my boy,
I am helpless.
Then,
Suddenly,
"Ammar"
Will be flying by,
Under dark sky,
Eager to play a hero.
I keep changing
his course.
"Sultana"
Oh Sultana
Stranded now,
In shallow waters,
Amidst illusive elegant capes.
Only trilling,
Whistling winds,
Daughters of hurricanes,
Her companion.
She could have sailed,
Sultana
to "New York" harbor!
By now.
Oh! yes.
I must write,
Even though,
I don't know how!
One eulogy, at least.
For an honest girl,
They murdered,
those beasts.
Her name was
"Ghusoon"
Around this fire,
Sipping coffee,
Sniffing saffron's aroma.
Sniffing wilderness,
When birds singing
a .........crescendo.
Rehearsing to greet
the lazy sun.
Soon,
Very soon,
He will rise,
He will shine.
Yes..........!
Yes... yes
I will be fine.
A couple of days I need,
I shall be fine indeed,
For,
I must and will regain
my humble self,
Back and....
Again.
