Hidden Sun Poem by Afzal Shauq

Hidden Sun

Rating: 5.0


In dreams...
eyes Willing
to look upon
the green tattoo
The sun on thy head.

I have named you
with blind faith
my hearts desire.
This sun I seek
Remains hidden
by night's black hair.

Unfortunate my journey...
Unending dream
Waiting
longing...
Just a single gust of wind
come blow thy blacken hair
and show the sun...

Now comes the true sun
and my eyes are open...
And that I greatly desired
One look upon that sun
will be forever hidden
in the clouds of my dreams.
