Drowning In Thirst Poem by Mehreen Mujeeb

My clouds keep getting heavier
Please tell me if they’re clouds
Or just mist floating by
What lies in those clouds
Feels stranger to I

My thunder keeps getting louder
So loud
I cannot hear
I don’t know if I hear silence
Or sound I fear

My lightening blinds me
So bright
I cannot see
If I’m blinded by darkness
Or light

I don’t know what’s wrong
Something I thought I felt
Was but a disguise not for long
I don’t know what flows in my blood
Am I a drought or a flood?
