Tell me, Qabbani How did you bear the weight Of such a love In each of those moments When you were left To bear it Alone

The few times I pray Are when you let me swim Out in the open When those greatest of waves Pound down upon my body Expelling the oxygen from my lungs And with it, a hope of life

My heart becomes a whisper I shrink down as a child If I were a flower They’d call me دوار الحب Waiting patiently For you to remember

Sometimes I think If I hold you close enough For long enough That you might be jolted awake By that ticking clock And what once you shared With somebody else You might also wish To share with me

I am a ghost riddled with holes scrambling to fill before I am lost

ګهېځ چې راپاڅېږم د لمونځ پر ځای ستا انتظار باسم

در عمق فساد انسان نور حضورت راه مرا روشن می‌سازد
