One Moment Poem by Asif Baloch

One Moment

Rating: 5.0


One moment
Alas! That one moment
I’m still waiting for it to come
My fate is slow and time is on the run

A dog is howling in despair
Someone is dying or
Maybe my death is near
I'm Trying to grab the hope
Dreams thus shattered
Soul is choked by strop

I feel like divested ground
Barren with no sight or sound
No birds, cupids or butterflies
Comes this way
Flower thus burned ashes doth flay

I really like what you have written, Maybe there is not a moment that defines us, but a life time of experiences. Do we wait on it or do we seek it? Questions, questions? ...very nice poem....10

That's a great use of figurative speech.. Great painting of how one feels when he is waiting in despair.. Nice..

lost in despair, waiting for that moment which would change the course of life- you have skillfully built the mood by imagery amd metaphors. emotionally charged poem - universal longing.10 Mamta
