POETRY BY MARIYAM NINA ALI

Have you?

Have you ever looked beyond your eyes?
Have you ever wondered what's beyond those skies?
Have you ever felt the magic?
It goes hand in hand with the tragic,

Spread your arms and kiss the breeze,
Experience how it feels to freeze,
Sustain a level above common horde,
Where your passion never let you feel bored.

In life's each day seek your pleasure,
Then every part of it will treasure,
When you are in despair watch the moon,
See how it relaxes you so very soon,

In life people go separate ways,
But memories they can't erase,
Realize that life has a meaning deep,
This secret joy in your heart you must keep.

Remember I’m always there…

If you ever need someone to talk to,
Remember that I am always there for you
If you ever get into trouble,
Come to me and ill give you a warm cuddle,

If you are sad and wearing a frown on your face,
I will give you my smile instead in its place,
If you are hurt and your heart is torn apart,
I will give you my affection and mend
you’re broken your heart,

If you are exhausted and about to fall,
I’ll give you my hand and remind you
this is a friendship after all,

Whatever you need, whenever it may be,
I assure you that you can always depend upon me…

Daddy
 

It gives me pain,
When I recall the good old days,
The times when I use to sit on his lap,
And play in the rain,

I remember all those days,
When he use to feed me,
And took me on the shoulder,
Showed me the heaven in earth,

I still remember his nap,
From which he never got up,
And took all my happiness away,

I wish I was gone with him,
‘Coz he is the only one I had,
But now he is my only sweet memories
