I'M SCARED

I'm scared I'm scared, From the frame on my wall that glitters From the call in my log that flickers From the midnight clock that chitters From the creeky window that snickers I'm scared, From the bottom lip that quivers From the gushing tear that slithers From the undesired truth that bitters From the empty sea that shimmers - Ali Asad Zia

WHERE IS THE INNER CHILD IN YOU?

Where is the inner child in you? Who were you before they broke your heart? Where is the inner child in you? The dreamer, visionary and thoughtful? The one that opened doors of fortune himself The one that missed spring but was fond of colors Where is the soul that believed life goes on? The Courageous, strong and hopeful? The one that lived the idea of being broke yet whole The one that inspired people to believe in goodness Where is the warrior of hard-bitten lucks? The Determined, driven and purposeful?  The one that imprisoned himself to set them free The one that escaped the refuge of his bed Happiness falls bare in the heart of discontent Don't lose the beautiful art in this deep pain Don't find grey where colors once lived Don't let the strength of your wings fall unsteady Don'...

THE EVER LASTING STRUGGLE

The ever lasting struggle The Shimmering Cascades of love The assorted colors of spring tide The mounting fragrance of blooms The holy chuckles of a sinless child The conquered silence by birds The chattering aura of rain The listed calls on the phone The awaited knocks at the door The warmest greetings from f riends The enchanting praises at ends The ignited candles at the table The glossy lights down the street The sequel of childhood collections The wisdom in instinctive thoughts The charm in fulfilment of wishes The sight of a shooting star Nothing feels relieving enough Enough to extinguish the fire inside Enough to battle the recalls inside Nothing feels soothing enough Enough for better choices to make Enough for better chances to take Peaceful the lumi...

DON'T LET YOURSELF DOWN

Dont let yourself down Don't let yourself down It's dark, deep and welcoming there A trickery of unearned sufferings A collision between both divisions An illusion in brightest of visions Some forgotten remembrances Some begotten claims A cruising melancholy A rushing trauma Don't let yourself down Recall your quests Bethink your chases Embrace your souls Devise your goals It wish to be tough to battle A rough one to settle But you've been entrusted the strength As a divine intervention To end the strickening sequels To mend the course of dejection And win the happiness back in you! - Ali Asad Zia
