Written Poem: The Journey – Poet Nazir

Poem Title: The Journey
Written By: Poet Nazir
Year: 2021

I’ve been waiting for so long
For a person I doubt to ever see again
In the heart of where I once belong
I smell the smiles of nothing but pain.

To cast my mind rewind
I could only feel the beat of my heart in the wind
Rounding and calling the thunders to never fall
For a heart has been left to dwell on the side of the wall.

Even when I remain silent
With the tears fearing up my courage
The clocks ticks, tick tick tick
And a beeping sound telling how many hours I’ve being alone.

Silent! Silent! Be, be a man!
My other twin called up on me
Shouting and cheering my watery face to be broad
None a reason to make that happen.

I’ve lost my soulmate
I cease to be alive
It’s worth than calling me to live
Purposefully, I deject to be human.

It is better to move far away
Away from the scars I call a memory
For the deity I pledged to worship has left me without a word
Then, but the time walks rapidly, I must admit.

I’ve grown grey hairs
As part of my world, I thought that would last
Meanwhile, I waved the white flag
While still hoping to hear her voice before I finally go to rest.
