Boundless Horizons: The Paradox of Growth

Boundless Horizons

Although my expanse includes constriction,

It does not hold a lesser volume than any vastness!

Expand as much as you can, O world,

The scope of my count and urge does not diminish.

I am a river connected to the ocean,

Each day a new transformation appears,

Floating and sinking.

A peak directly above a depth,

A direction mirrors…

Although my expanse includes constriction,

It does not hold a lesser volume than any vastness!

Expand as much as you can, O world,

The scope of my count

The opposite of the manifestation of growth.

Aslam Murad
