Abdul Basit Poems

sometimes i feel so happy,
sometimes i am kind of sad,
at times i hang by a thread,
somtimes i am soaked glad,
...

why you always suffocate in these walls,
which trample your good feelings and thoughts,
and then make your tears come out and fal,
and you feel no one listens to your wails and calls,
...

gradually strolls on my soul
its fierce, harsh and cold
grasps ma heart squeezes out
hope that i hoped wud last out
...

snow flakes brushed the focus of my sight,
which was affect, sheathing an axiom,
in the back of my mind,
i held curiosity,
...

when pain embraces me and becomes riveted to my heart,
when my heart is shackled by failures,
when my heart sears with depression,
whenever this world ought to strangle my blue sky,
...

tears sliding down the courses of my cheek,
for i was bleeding inside, my heart seared with pain,
for pain remained undented inside me,
crippled and mangled the living optimist in me,
...

my heart all but mutilated,
happiness strangled inside me, myself disconsolated,
the knot of depression tightens inside me,
suffocating in pain i cannot break free,
...
