Dark Shadows of Lost Love

I am watching the dark shadows 

Of the ones who left me 

Without a goodbye 

From the balcony of my somber mind 

I want to throw the crumpled papers 

In which I wrote love letters

At the shadows 

And burn them with fire from my heart

I want to desecrate the shadows with 

The ashes from the papers 

Painting my agony 

Smoke may reach them in nightmares

Depriving them the joy of peaceful sleep

Like I am suffering everyday

For one night for 

Reminding them the pain of losing love

Her Memorable Picture

I saw her picture from 

Grand Mosque in Abudhabi 

In a black Abaya and Hijab

She is not a Muslim,

But she looked like one,

I never saw her that pretty before 

I've been seeing her from her teenage

I couldn't take my eyes off her smile 

She was glowing like gold in black sand

Her eyes sparkled like lights from mist

There was unusual grace and elegance 

I don't have words to narrate her beauty

I just wished to marry her with that smile
