What Is This Heart?

Dil cheez kya hai?

I walk a path in the sky where she tapped her nail

The frequency vibrates a chord in the emerald

This part of the bosom is helplessly frail

There is no faery myth nor whimsical tale

Were I to continue telling these stories - in full

Mangoes would rain sweetness from the heavens as hail

When I disclose my heart entirely - no bull

Hyacinthine honey gushes from eyes as syrup off the trees that wail

Blooming petaled lips pour forth the ecstasy of heavenous ale

Love brings me towards her soul - without a single angle or lever

This bloodied heart strung for her - and yet she chose to sever

It’s from الله

It’s from الله
