![]() Innocuous InnocentA Poem by Khawaja Musadiq
Sun descended down the horizon, tired,
Blue sky turned red. A child in Heaven asks a man: 'You know why has the sky turned red?' A toddler's soul replies: "It is the reflection of my bloodshed... Not only you, The sky is crying too! Yesterday it was a Paradise: The glaciers, The million-inch Himalayas.. The Browns, the Blues, the Greens.. Today, it is only blood-stains! They care for the beauty lost, Lives like mine never cost. Look..they've put a label on my lapel It reads: In... It has left me puzzled, Tell me.. What does it mean, Innocuous or Innocent? ©KM © 2015 Khawaja Musadiq |
