Reflections

Life sometimes
feels like a story,
countless dreams,
endless memories,
billions of faces,
without a name.

Every mouth
that speaks will,
questions, opinions
beliefs, accusations,
answers unknown,
the truth insane.

How we see,
is who we are,
searching, exploring,
learning, understanding,
guided by emotions,
mainly pleasure and pain.

Our eyes,
mirrors to our soul,
looking for reflections,
another snowflake,
yet as decaying matter,
we're all the same.

Time everlasting
tik- toks life away.
We didn't start
the death clock.
You were born into this,
now play the game.

Interstellar Love

yellow drops of paint
glimmering on a dark wall
infinite and silent they twinkle
big but seem so small

speak to me
show me where i am from
give me a sign
see how far I've come

Pieces of glass
stuck on a velvet blanket
is this light yours
or do you just reflect

answer me now
there is nobody around
say anything
just make a sound

electric light bulbs
floating in space
who keeps you running
I see no trace

tell me your story
I'm all ears
break my illusion
I got no fears

sparkling bright eyes
staring at me from oblivion
dance with me, life
my mind can't reason

take me with you
far away from here
to a place of love
where you'll always be near

- Salman
