| Amorous Episodes |
| by Aamir Aziz |
| Can you forget those summer afternoons?
When we made promises to confront the world Along the dynamic stream, in the shade of the harvest. And a sudden free fall of a ripened mango, Perspired us the very next moment. When exuberance of youth deceived us both. Those recurring avowals of love and our fool’s paradise Those dreamy afternoons and sleepless nights of our romantic illusion Remind me of our feverish and playful self imprisonment How narrow our cosmos was, where no dream came true. Our timely escapade, from the emotional cage to the dusk of reality. Though grim and strange it seems, struggle and perseverance its message is. Here tears follow cheers and pains enjoy monopoly. The silent victim counters the jesters but what for? His mind becomes a whirlpool of unanswered questions He sings a song of melancholy and remorse, but for whom? Who will solve this earthly riddle and escort us to the shore, And who will rescue these hostages to fortune, Who are in a dreadful insomnia, a painful prison. O ignorance is a bliss and knowledge retards our reversion And this brings the drop scene of our drowsy amorous episodes In complete fiasco |
