Awareness Inactive Poem by Suhail Kakorvi

Awareness Inactive



Not known what beloved wrote in letter
How faded some portion herein Oh! Messenger?
What has become the state of my heart?
Getting ruthless for me nothing brought?
The pain becomes drowsy suddenly
Reason is still to be known by any
Only matter hovers in running tales
Why and how such change prevails?
Its clear my ideal is surely manifold
Whether abstemious or drunkard bold?
Why such stillness covers thy face
Secret of thy within, hard to trace
I see flowers in my arms suddenly bloom
O! Lord miracle things seem assume
'Grief has its taste its own deliciousness'
Why said departing lovely capricious?
No decoration of self and dressing whatsoever
Oh! What happened to thee which occurred never?
Search thy lost heart only there in thee
Why cast such suspicious glances on me?
smartly glitters in the mirror of my thought
What moon like appears which eyes caught?
The fire of love is but the test of loyalty
Oh! Lover face that with heart free
