ContemplativeFaryal Gohar

Night sky

Have you seen the moon in the sky, Hiding all its pains with a grace, No one can imagine the things it had to face, And now has no urge to win any race, All the losses and fears it has embraced, It has more depth than anyone can think, One can stare at it for hours , Without even a blink, It has friends like stars , They add to its beauty, And do not leave it , Even when it's dark, And someone who was once , Afraid of the black night , Is admiring this cold glamorous sight, And when I look at that sky,

man

as I metamorph questions filled my heart and my mind and jewels filled my eyes I wanted an answer but all I'd get are sugar coated lies with a pinch of salt inside. maybe it could've been wrong I utter all the time; but it is never wrong lying just made it wrong. it could just have been a single drop of honey from your mouth at least it is sweet and true. I asked for an answer. a true answer. I could have accepted a dead bouquet of true words. do not think of me as a person who could not appreciate wilting flowers just because I am a such a bee

Borders

Borders are man-made But the border between us is natural

Afternoon Blues

Blue hues hepicanny The suns rays have gone Clouds absorb the sky I breathe in the oncoming night, Dark tones overtake my woes Like an aesthetic photo, colors go awry In my surprise, I have no dark demise. I sit in peace, not missing the sunny side skies.

Rainstorm

Grey clouds blanket the sky, Bringing shadow to the land below. One, two, droplets fall snatching my attention. The winds pick up, moist air clinging to it. Purple plasma snakes the clouds, like vicious leviathans, bringing thunder. The rain starts pouring on the asphalt, like grass growing rapidly. Soon, a symphony of splashes are heard miles around. Swathes of grass swaying in the wind. the grass overflows, opening puddles with mirror worlds. The water flows on all colors, a cacophony of sight. Rain flows so heavily, almost to clean the world. Tires splish the grass, becoming fiercer than sea waves, Almost as if the tires surfed. Soon, all storms come to an end.

Heat

One gives heat And one gives light One moves left The other, right Working day Working night Shades of grey Black and white Earth is round Blocks are square Look and read The letters there Strings of symbols Complex meaning Pen on paper Ink is bleeding

risks

when you think about it you shouldn't make risks and you shouldn't do what you want and maybe you just shouldn't "live life to the fullest" but honestly, if you don't, who will?

Rapunzel

Prince Charming is taking a while I like my hair short and frankly being alone makes me happier than I bet he could. so maybe I'm modern day Rapunzel without the longing to be found, rescued, and to see the world; but the longing to be lost, forgotten, and left alone.

Books

You know what they say "Never judge a book by its cover" And it's completely true. There are so many beautiful covers With exquisite details, But the story reflects nothing of that. The plot, the setting, the characters Have nothing in comparison to the Cover. And the climax, Of most stories I've heard, Are actually the downfalls. But the worst part, Is the ending. Because some stories Don't even make it that far

Tattoos

All the ink that covers my body are all the stories I could never tell. Secrets I've always kept, every confession I've never made. Tons of memories made into drawings on my body. Things that have scarred me so much will literally stay with me forever. All the things that have hit me so hard, are now visible. You look at me, and judge you might, but I'm covered with the stories of my life.
