Without You

By Syed Sajjad Qadri

You smashed it too hard

Like a glass flaked in a crash

I saw chips flinging

Strange pieces of the shattered glass

Remind me of you setting apart

Broken to the bits, I see myself

Looking for marks of your bites on my pieces

To kiss them, as always!

Like a mole under your lips

Tears roll down my cheeks

And are still oozing through the edges of my eyes

That look like sharp glass pieces now,

Staring endlessly into nothingness

That is left of me and my life

Without you!
