Nayyab Younas Khan Poems

You'll try to see me
What you'll see, a mere silhouette

You'll try to feel me
...

Who I am, I asked myself
without any clue
I see things appearing, vanishing, deceiving me from what's true
...

This emptiness that you feel inside your soul
The abstract you had, feels in pieces from it's whole

World's gone upside down and things are mould
...

The rays of sun, dash through me and burn
The hope to see an antelope in the clouds,
surviving the doubts
...

I believe I see Pain
More than just what makes you cry

For when you are in pain,
...

Sitting on the edge, what I see
All roam here and there, busy like a bee

Faces depict queries, sorrows or some worry
...

The worries that hold me back today
The chains my life right now portray
Are all going to break, I will say Hurray!
...

I rose from my throne one day, and came out of all falsehood
What to witness, many little souls living in austere childhood

I found my heart drowning, fading like a setting sun
...

Oh we carry hearts of stone
We stay like this till we turn to bone

The pain we carry all alone
...

It was summer, and it rained
I can't express the beauty, world gained

On my way, Oh I saw, A beauteous sight
...
