Come To My Rescue ~ Poem by M. Asim Nehal

When your thoughts still keep me awake,
I have no one besides stars and moon to converse.

All your promises fly like fireflies,
In the dark sky they keep teasing me.

What happened to those dreams you showed me?
Now my sleep has gone away carrying them from me.

Didn't that bath in the translucent holy river purify your heart?
Then why did you abandon me in a sandstorm desert to perish?

My lifeboat is now drifting aimlessly in the fog
All radar signals pointing at you appear to be beyond my reach.

Come to my rescue before it's too late.
