Aaliya Thahseen

Piercing grey stormy clouds with which he glares
Pitch black hair so silky like the midnight
Leather jacket snuggly fitting his body
Arms like steel and a grip like vice,
...

The darkest horse thou ride
And Seize what belongs to thee
I always want to be by thy side
Now, Take me with thee!
...

Thou sprint like the violent winds
Yet it is as gentle as a caress
Thy coat of armor ardent
Avowed to protect thy lover,
...

I gazed out the window
And saw a girl in tatters
Clutching a baby to her bosom
And clanging thin platters,
...

Children massacred and mothers shattered
It's not a rare sight here
I have lived with this too long
Now I have nothing to fear,
...

Let's not sit on this boring bench
Instead go out and get drenched,

Take my hand now and don't let go
Raise your face up and feel the wind blow,
...

The thread of trust is broken
My heart now torn and wrecked,

Toyed with it until it rose
And buried it callously,
...

I broke a promise
I made to myself,

I vowed not to love you
But now it's inevitable,
...

Why complain when you have a secure home
Strong men to love you and protect you
What of those women on the other side
Bloodbathed and slayed at sight,
...

Your knight in a shining armor is here
You have waited too long, my dear,

We will ride on my horse and make a getaway
To some place clandestine and far away,
...

I lived in a dream with you
Held your beautiful hand
And took a promise
That I will never love anyone but you,
...

Walked under the street light
Thousand thoughts smothering me
His face, His smile
Clouding my very judgement,
...

Murkiness I stare at
Bewilderment fills my insides
Rattling words ally my mind
But it forbids and disobeys,
...

I breathe fire instead
Losing control of emotions
Running wild and swift
Not stopping to pause,
...

A whisper came out of the shadows
I looked for the sound
But, I could not find anyone,
...
