Mariah Ali Poems

The veil of darkness stretches thin with thy appearance
Fear flees like an angry cheetah
Giving hope to the hopeless
Your light of hope never losses its lustre
...

Oh gifted soul
Why go for breadcrumbs
When ye have fresh loaves on thy head
...

And when the dark ocean waves submerges ye
Keep in mind the light in ye is much stronger
And when ye walk in the alley of darkness
Keep in mind the light in ye is a force to reckon
...

You chased me like a cheetah in the wilderness
And passed your minutes in bitterness
Only to assault my young heart
And to see my young soul hurt
...

Bright lights yelling
The stage dancing
The acts thrilling
The applauses thundering
...

You stupid woman
You messy woman
You dirty woman
These are the words he uses on her each morn
...

She was the rose among roses
Tender and young
The attraction of all bees
The delight of the morn
...

Fain heart
Weary limbs
Dreaded fate
Drunken skies
...

Oh time! the goddess of nature
 And the mother of nurture
You are a respecter of none
But a mother to everyone
...

Oh my friend
Treat thyself with awe
Because you are sacred
Create the invisible line to preserve thyself
...
