      Aspirations and Fulfillment - Taimur Awan

      Aspirations and Fulfilment

      Many consider worldly life

      To be an episode of suffering,

      A prison and jail,

      We aspire to the skies,

      For the fulfilment of our dreams aspirations,

      And desires,

      Yet like an eagles cut wings,

      Are bound to the level sahara.

      God, allow me entrance to the flowery meadows,

      Vast expanses, and like a falcon soar,

      Above all the summits of humanity,

      Become an oasis to quench my thirst,

      Be the fulfiller of all my desires.

      Poets

      Poets are beauticians, embellishers, and aestheticians,

      Providing the regal banquets of philosophy, psychology, theology,

      I am not addicted to life’s dark realities,

      But the light, colour, and fragrance of existence,

      A torch can kindle many candles,

      Let my poetry be like a congregation of violets,

      Spreading perfumes east and west,

      Till I achieve laurels, crowns, and victories.

      Healing

      Dear God, remove pain and fire from my heart,

      Heal the injuries of my heart, body, and mind,

      Till I enjoy the endless fountains of happiness.

      A single Star

      Out of all the galaxies of beautiful women

      I am in search of a solitary star

      The light of my heart the jewel of my lifetime

      Because a woman with a beautiful body

      Pure heart and intellectual mind

      Is a gift from God and will be the princess of my mortality.

      Glimpses of God

      Divine and alien sunsets,

      That rest on the mirror of calm oceans,

      Their rays filling the horizon with rays of beauty,

      Are a glimpse of god.

      Perfection Achieved

      We must fall many times before we learn to walk endlessly,

      We must sin countless times before we achieve the summit of piety,

      Hearts polished like gold, syllables and actions of righteousness,

      With fortified and lifelong faith in God,

      when the light of the universe shines upon our hearts,

      Like a lamp kindled by a flame that burns for a lifetime,

      Till pain, fire, and lust is removed from our lives forever.

      Unrequited Passion

      Beauties have cast their arrows of fire in my heart,

      By me falling in love a thousand times, they as distant as the
