My Moon Has Two Faces
By Syed Sajjad Qadri
My moon has two faces, I believe!
Spot I hide in my fist belongs to me
Glow and gleam has fallen in your lap
I swing between ecstasy and despair
With all the feathers in your cap
My moon has two faces, I believe!
With the tiring trail welting my soul
Your glittering glow croon me to calm
I hide the scars of my misfortune
With the pain of holding you in my palm
My moon has two faces, I believe!
The turn of night could not be far
First ray of sun could be mine
The spot in my hand would disappear
You will hide under its sheen and shine
My moon has two faces, I believe!
One dark for me, one bright for you
Till the night ends…
