Illuminating Lights : You're Away

By zeidalqadri
Have I not gone through a day without missing you?
Whom a part of my heart belongs to,
Where my affection resides by,
Whose smile is the apple of my eye,
Who has my love more than I could ever define,
Above everything I ever had in my mind.

So you said I wanted to forget,
That we painted them towns purple and red,
All the fine times we ever had,
All the moments I made you feel bad,
All the lies I told so you won't be sad,
All the silly jokes we cracked,
And my lame ones you couldn't even laugh at,
That I'm the only one who could swing your mood like mad.

Have I not gone through a day without missing you?
I'd be lying to myself if I said it wasn't true.

Silent Night Hymn #17 - A Toast

By zeidalqadri
here's to the chase,
the fix and the pace,
the tale that we missed,
the route that we braced,
the kiss on the hand,
the time that we spent,
the dream that we frisked,
the straw that we bent,
the path that we ran,
the wind and the sand,
the talk and the plan,
the song that we sang.

here's to the chase,
the pulse and the craze,
the eminence of your grace.

Silent Night Hymn #16 - The Sky & The Sun

By zeidalqadri
i'm not easy no more,
i'm not as fun,
so what's up my man?
the sky and the sun.

i'm far from over,
i'm no where near,
i'm biting things hard,
most of them are bitter.

so i'm passing through,
and you don't see me,
here's something you didn't know,
i saved you the front row.

i'll continue walking,
see the birds chirping,
i already lost my hearing,
your silence was deafening.

please don't apologize,
i barely take things to heart,
it was already missing,
nothing much for you to cut.

please don't start weeping,
i'll stay at the sideline,
paying attention and waiting,
for you to do nothing.

Silent Night Hymn #15 - Silly Compass

By zeidalqadri
this hymn,
you see,
it just won't stop,
no matter when
you're far up north,
and i'm down south.

this silence,
baby,
is not for nothing,
it feels like gambling,
can't be anymore exciting,
than to just see
what the tide might bring.

perhaps room is what you need,
at least that's how i read it.
or call me stupid,
for tardily pursuing my bid.

i do admit,
it feels like i'm losing grip,
which i never had,
though i don't feel so bad,
for such an exquisite scenery,
it's always worthy
to be silly.

Silent Night Hymn #14 - The Lure

By zeidalqadri
I am sent adrift,
and everyday is just another shift,
when all I need is a chant,
to send me ashore again.

I went astray,
still with hope on my tray,
though I can no longer listen
to what you have to say,
when you are too distant.

come on over,
take my hand,
pick the clover,
wipe off the sand,
stay right there,
comprehend when,
it's easier to catch a fever,
than to grab you for a dinner.

or perhaps just a supper,
I'd still get to
spend minutes together,
send you home later,
we could maybe
take a detour,
get amused at the theater,
they're for you to consider,
my dear.

Silent Night Hymn #13 - Voices on Valentine's

By zeidalqadri
I heard voices telling,
I should give you something,
For all I know,
you deserve to have everything,
So what do I do
when I can hand you nothing?

For what it's worth,
I'd resort to stealing,
But what is worse,
I don't do this V thing,
Had a bad history about it,
and bad histories tend to keep repeating.

So take this words as a sign,
That you don't need a special day
to be in someone's mind,
Let alone when you're mine.

Now, would you mind?

Silent Night Hymn #12 - Purple

By zeidalqadri
how can i ever tell
how much i've been missing you
you put me under your spell
haven't been able to see things through

things happened in a snap
never saw it coming
thought i could see the ending
tried to do so with a clap

although i would be lying
to say i wanna shake off this feeling
because when you opt to be silent
i wear purple to feel your presence

so i'm telling that i'm missing you
that things can't be any truer than true
and i'll forever be in blue
waiting for those eyes to shed a clue

Silent Night Hymn #11 - Silence

By zeidalqadri
now listen.
can't you hear
the deafening silence?

it's awkward.
it's not even unclear
this is weird.

*
whisper to me how
to ease my pain.
show it to me now
i wanna be sane.
again.

we're celebrating.
we're jumping around
but something's missing.

i pondered a while.
i'm longing for
that blissfully burning smile.

SIlent Night Hymn #10 - Echoes

By zeidalqadri
she's getting further,
she's moving further,
off beyond my reach,
i used to smell flowers.

i'm going deeper,
i'm pushed deeper,
and i'm barely hearing,
the questions to my answers.

there're plenty to be told,
not much are bold,
Her Highness couldn't care enough,
none could be sold.

it's falling apart,
it's rumbling hard,
the hope of the states,
on a house of cards.

Silent Night Hymn #9 - 9

By zeidalqadri
how can i take you off my mind,
when you turned me into a blind,
when suffocation turns out to be something so fine,
when every path looks like a straight line.

how can i take you off my mind,
when you turned me upside-down in every kind,
when an honest smile on my face
is not a luxury hard enough to find,
when i'm in haven sans any wine.

how can i take you off my mind,
when the only number i can think of is nine.
