Cigarette Ashes

Clock, ticking down the moments Time a delayed bomb Cigarette my timer Time a reoccuring dream Abandonded Minds Spoiled Lives Hard Road Empty Feelings Smashed Souls Ashes fall Smoking lingering on the red-hot ash Mingling with my mind The sweet scent of tobacco Burning Ticking My secret timer Watching the ashes fall Or maybe it was my world. © Ubaid Ullah Ah...

Butchered

Trunk to Branches to Leaves to StumpNothing remaining, just butcheredReason unknownMotive knownBut who cares? Do you?Only after the last tree has been cut down, Only after the last river has been poisoned, Only after the last fish has been caught, Only then will you find,That money cannot be eaten...

Ecstasy Unraveled

Drown yourself in passion; drown yourself in love or just let the music take control over you. Let your feet thump, your body groove. Let the ecstasy unravel, and take full control of your emotions and soul. Tight-knit hours and an abundance of demands. Let us consume each slot of that day, catch moment, and thought, all passing by every day. From sunset to sunrise give yourself up to remember a moment where everything becomes quiet except...

I fade away

 A thought, a dream My name, a word Just another line Fading... No one would notice As everything I feel fades away Confused, yet smiling Falling, yet surviving Distorted, yet thumping Fading so slowly... With the rising sun A new day would start as I fade away..... © Ubaid Ullah Ah...

Caged birds (Revisited)

How high will i have to fly,Before i can no longer see you, You are so far awayIt may get easier if i turn my eyes awayBut I want to always keep gazing at you from somewhereBecause there is no way i can forget you... I can do nothing,But I look up at the sky,Just like a caged bird... I wander about aimlessly,looking for a windowI want to see you right now because i love you,I miss you... Although i want to run away because i am afraid of being hurt...

Solacing Dead Ends

 The motions of life never cease, constantly turning the clock towards our most certain end. The passage of life are similar we walk and walk until we see the end... And if we see the dead end, we turn, because there's always light coming from a better end rather then blindly walking towards a dead end making it a solacing one. It is good finding a little solace when an end to it is as inevevitable as the passing of days....

Cerulean Twilight

I'm lying here, oh so peaceful..... ..... In serene harmony I¹m dreaming yet I feel awake I¹m dreaming yet I am awake Subjected to pain. Dark screams repent And in a foreboding rage, a soul will die..... ..... a soul will die My mind is burning, I¹m burning I can't feel you anymore Have I reached my point ? Will I drown in delusion ? The winds fell silent And in my cerulean twilight I left myself once again ..... it's overwhelming Suffer yourself,...

Innocence

He told him self that he'd never do drugs,He told him self that he'd never steal,He said that he'll always have good faith,Fait in him self, faith in God. Despite him starving to be thin,He never lost his confident,He never lost his hope,He never changed. He's the type which I'd call innocent,Shoorting stars broke his heart,Sunset made him cry. Innocent as a baby cuddling up in his mother's arm.Naughty as a child of his age can possibly be. Young...
