JOURNAL #35 bleed no more
wounded heart
of before
heal and be whole
of those rib knocking
bruises of the prior
aches' sore
much balm from your words
has been wrung
much joy out of pain
has softly now come
smile through your tears
and divorce yourself of
those long, harsh empty years
today is so fresh sweet and
shiny all anew
come turn your aching back on what
was
take my hand
and walk with me
out of the pain
because don't you know
tomorrow is the most beautiful
word in the world
begetting such hope
it comes in second only to love
and we both know
you've saved up plenty of that........

Hi Melissa, I am Shazi (dr Shehzad Latif) Naveeds best earthly friend. We go back to the school days in 68. Yes we are ancient. I am happy that you have lifted his spirit and this poem is yet another in many that I have viewed overnight. I like it, my only prayer is that he takes someones hand and crawl out of the cocoon he has weaved around himself. Keep writing and keep smiling. If you have the chance see "Nostalgia and Nostalgia2" written for him by me.
Cheers and lovely writing
Shazi
