ON A FOGGY MORNING IN KARACHI
Sunlight creeps
Seeking a way through
The dense wintery foggy dark.
Venus peeps
Into my sad eyes
As if bidding its farewell.
I can't blink
It is not easy
To hold back unwept tears.
Long ago
I wondered about
Pegasus and Orion.
Perseus
And Cassiopea
Hercules and Andromeda.
Why the stars
Had gone so silent
About those they are named after.
Fairy tales
Are always pleasing
With their happy conclusions.
Life moves on
Like ships in whirpools
Spinning till everything sinks.
It's Sunday
A time to relax
But for me just another day.
I love walks
On foggy mornings
Just me and the roads ahead.
Thinking of
What I still possess:
The true love of someone gone.
