my darkglasses are broken <br />i used to wear them in the dark <br />now my eyes are swollen <br />i could not see much far; <br />much far, in the dark <br /> <br />i always wore them in the night <br />i used to block the dark rays <br />i used to see the light <br />and the gleaming passage-ways <br />the passageways, in the dark <br /> <br />the passageways led me to my world <br />i had created the luminous world <br />around my world was the dark void <br />my world was free of any dirt <br />whoever entered it was overjoyed <br />but there was some error <br />some error, in the dark <br /> <br />although my world was well-lit <br />yet it was surrounded by the shadows <br />and darkness fell on every bit <br />my world was showered with the dark <br />so i was surrounded by the darkness <br />the dark rays pierced my eyes <br />pierced my eyes, in the dark <br /> <br />and i couldn't understand anything <br />either i was living there <br />imagining myself wearing those lenses <br />or was i wearing those dark glasses <br />and imagining myself in the world <br />the world, in the dark <br /> <br />in either case, i was in the dark <br />i tried to tear up the world. <br />i snatched the world in my hand <br />and threw it in the gap <br />the world shattered like a glass <br />i realized that i was too fast <br />i had broken my darkglasses <br />so had lost my world <br />my world, in the dark... <br /> <br />19-01-2008<br /><br />Usman Hanif<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-world-33/
