Bereaved of Breath
Just the thought of your presence leaves a young man bereaved of his breath
A single glance at those brown eyes, enough to govern life from birth till death
So as not to soil my mouth, toil then - I have to, I must
I can’t let my tongue out - so I plug my jaws with dust
Poetry is the palatial province of my imagination
And this here - is a transmutation of pain, into art
I begged the Governor and Architect of creation
Yes he knows you - are the capital, of my heart
In love with the version of you who woke today
Your soul’s outline unveiled so peacefully at bay
Steeds mounted with the sharpest lances have nothing on her piercing glare
Sun kissed waves have nothing on those beams reflecting off her shining hair
Life’s mission and spiritual clairvoyant named Love, just keeps filling it up
The chiming of God’s bells shimmer and roll, just over the ocean’s endless cup
In this visible theatre of divine manifestations
Separate from you - the entirety of the universe, is nothing
It’s from الله
