    2 poems: If not you are a wolf like! \ Childish Time


    Poem - 1 : If not you are a wolf like!

    I feel as if my hands are shackled
    Nothing in this life amuses me
    Even among my friends, I feel isolated
    Methinks my papers turning ashes
    Soliloquizing I ask
    "Why do people madly love life?"
    Thus, I accuse myself if I am in delusion
    Life has two wings separately flying
    One is devilish other is a humankind
    So which one can we comply with?
    Looking to a swarm of birds were flown
    As those swarms my thoughts accumulated
    And no longer my thought has been united.
    I saw one falcon for a corpse swooped down
    Thus, I think greed makes people selfish
    At once I picked my pen and wrote:
    Nothing in life is joyful if you are captive
    To be free in thoughts you must be fearless.
    Life is never easier unless you struggle.
    Then to fight all of the earth devils
    Once you had victory, you had life
    People of nowadays themselves are devils
    If not you are a wolf like you will be eaten
    Then your bones turned just fossils
    And you are unworthy to live life

    Poem 2 : Childish Time


    A girl of my neighbour of an ancient time
    For her sake, I changed my rhyme
    A flirtatious girl of wide-eyed
    I kissed her once when I was child
    But she at once told her father
    He sought to punish me and chased
    In that time he was the mosque server
    And for him I listen out of temper
    When I saw him turning nervous,
    I went hiding myself behind their fig tree
    Then I kissed her twice
    Her mother always would say Woe!
    But when I misled she would further guide
    Saying, "don't worry my son"
    Still you are young to marry
    When I heard such speech, I became timid
    Then I may go back staggering in my way
    My mother would say, please boy!
    But I seize time for a new pleasure
    And this indeed is the childish behaviour
