Permanent Peacemaker
Have you ever thought about the river of time
Each wave with its ups and downs
Every step brings transformations
You don’t know your own identity
Nor do I have any existence
With our own emotions
Disliking the direction of the destination
Just flowing along
Come, let’s stop at that shore
Where the waters are continuously still
No madness, no turbulence
Just a lasting peace
Come, let’s pause
Like tears in an eye ready to cry
Held back by the perfection of grief’s restraint
Aslam Murad
