sana ali Poems

Frontline warriors, as the media identifies them
Wending their way through the smell of death
White knuckle tight, in foxhole
Scrawling the prescriptions for beleaguer souls
...

In the middle of the shivering night
My eyes widened with surprise
When i realized;
The shadow of death in my room; scrutinizing
...

I want to write a story
Beautiful and small
Full of suspense and chuckles
Where everyone loves and lives
...

Other night I had a dream
Eagerly I longed for what was not mine
To complete myself I had to fight
The destiny was brutal, never bat an eye
...

Stay afar
from self proclaimed avatars
They will shred you like an ogre
And will shed tears like crestfallen backer.
...

Beautiful illusion, delicately created
Soothing melodies, putting to sleep like a lullaby
then the chorus shifted
verses seething with vexation
...
