by god’s grace

are you a silent star

a lovely belle

or a godess

you are heart intoxicating
heart stopping
or a light from the heavens
by god’s grace.
you are a breeze
you are a cloud
you are galaxy
you are a master
like the first beam of morning

like a unconstrained wind
you are showering the fragrance
by being so overjoyed..
by god’s grace.

standing still

February 5th, 2008 by hirah

early rise..
perfect day..
blue sky..
bright sun..
and i am standing still.

i could sing..
i could dance..
i could paint..
i could draw..
yet i am standing still.

it is raining..
im outside..
i saw you leave..
and all i did was stand still.

The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent
to be lost that their loss is no disaster.

Lose something every day. Accept the fluster
of lost door keys, the hour badly spent.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.

Then practice losing farther, losing faster:
places, and names, and where it was you meant
to travel. None of these will bring disaster.

I lost my mother's watch. And look! my last, or
next-to-last, of three loved houses went.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.

I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster,
some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.
I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.

--Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture
I love) I shan't have lied.  It's evident
the art of losing's not too hard to master
though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.

not forgetting so called best friend who had so much things against me,

didnt realise i was so bona fide,

i am indeed happier now.

cheers for 2008

December 17th, 2007 by hirah

without you im like the empty bells,

my eyes search for you every night,

my heart is restless for your love,

my ears is aching to hear your voice.

even the world seems dark and dull,

you took away my brightness,

when u decided to walk out,

you left me in despair.

diamond cut tears flowing down my cheeck,

my skin yearns for your touch,

the darkness filles up my loneliness,

solitude is my company,

im drowning in sorrow..

save me as you are my saviour.

with out telling..

December 3rd, 2007 by hirah

Take me somewhere without telling me
Where you smile, thats where my destination is
I’ve just tasted the sweet feeling of love
a lump of sugar, has become my life,my shore is where your arms are.

come down the road of the heart like small raindrops
my dreams will be soaked
The verse that you hum, that is my tune
blood has stirred to do something
blood has stirred to walk down the glass of the eyes
dripping from the body, enveloping the earth
rising from the streets and the paths

blood has stirred to fill new colors
With an open wound, with a large complaint, slowly, slowly
the finger of questions, a fist of answers
with all of this the blood goes.

i am she..

November 6th, 2007 by hirah

i saw her in the middle of the crowd..

she looked dazed..

i approached her as something in me said she needed help.

i asked her "miss are you OK?"

she said "i am lost..i see so many roads..i can’t seem to choose one"

i did ask myself what on earth was she looking at..is she mentally ill or something..there was no road..it was just a hall filled with people..the only road was the door which functioned as the way in and out of the hall.

again i asked "are you sure you see roads because i don’t."

she replied "of course!! can’t you see it..i feel lost and lonely. what do i do? where do i go from here?"

all i could do is just sympathize her.She looked extremely helpless..i decided to pull her one side and did my best to comfort her. for a moment she looked like a child whom has lost her parents.

she said " I’m feeling so low,so ugly,so wretched..sometimes i wonder what am i doing on this planet, am i here for a purpose? all life gave me was blissful pain, i am a laughing stalk to society. I’m unseen and unheard. oh what do i do to make this empty feeling vanish?”

she looked directly into my eyes. i couldn’t say a word at that moment,i was pretty astonished with what she told me.

a moment later i said "life is such..we have to go through up’s and down’s..life is filled with anger,animosity,pain yet it is filled with sweetness,grace and bliss. everyone has a purpose in life..we design our destiny, we choose our path."

she looked at me and all she could do was tear. little that i realize i could feel her pain so deeply.

i did not have all day to sit with her. i did my best to comfort her at the same time i had to leave. i looked at her and gave her a hug for the first and the last time. before i left i told her " learn to love yourself first, nothing in this world is more important than to learn to love yourself and search your true self. once you have done the burden you feel on your shoulder will lighten and you can clearly see the path that you ought to choose."

i stood up and turned towards the exit..she grabbed my hands and said " i want to show you something."

she brought me to a mirror..i saw me.. then i realized  all this while i have been consoling myself…….. i am she.

when you are not with me…

November 1st, 2007 by hirah

when you are not with me…
it feels like the heavens left me,
it feels like the sun in my life walked out on me.

when you are not with me…
each day feels lamentable,
the darkness is maddening,opaque and dense.

when you are not with me…
my eyes seacrh for those captivating eyes..
my ears ache to hear the sound of voice,
my skin longs for your touch.

when you are not with me…
i become capricious,
solitude is the only companian i have.

when you are not with me…
my life stands still,
my heart beat..constantly fading..

like my black renegade kohl streams down my face.

there is no law when it comes to love

May 24th, 2007 by hirah

for every disease,

there is a cure.

to every extent,

love itself is pure.

every moment,

is precious.

in a crime of unrequited love,

there is no law.

for love is incomplete,

when given not received.

if love is a crime,

then where is the law.

if love is bliss,

where is the eternal smile.

where is the law for a broken heart…

as there is no law when it comes to love,

pure,

sweet,

bliss..

yet..

painful,

bitter,

torturous..

and we still search for the blissfull pain.
