Will You?

A Poem by Hasan Hafi

if i initiate, will you?
if i take the first step, will you?
if i take the first words, will you?
the universe know you've got something to tell, and so does the cosmos.
And the falling star accuses me for my immorality , leaves me behind and goes on his way.
i see him fading but i cant do anything,
and then i sit with jibreel every night, he shows me path,but at the stroke of the day I'm still the same,
i guess im just tired,
I'm tired and i want to rest
But when i close my eyes, there's a light.
I dont know where i am but its peace
Neither i hear anything nor i can see anyone.
its all deserted.
I'm close to my God and i think this is perpetual.
Never ending.
But your face strikes me, and again I'm at same place.
i stand stil
asking for perpetual happiness for you.
And the jibreel says me
you really have something to tell me.
so if i take the first step, will you take the last one with me?
if i take the first words will you take the last one with me?
i know one day you will tell me, what you have to, and end this conversation of eyes.
The wait will be over, the stars are uncountable.
