Beauty is scattered, <br />Even in a particle, <br />Below my boots, <br />What I need, <br />Just the eyes, <br />That can see. <br /> <br />Pretty is the man, <br />Even my enemy, <br />Critical and violent, <br />With a reason or not, <br />What I need, <br />Just to react friendly. <br /> <br />Lovely is someone, <br />That hates me always, <br />Condemns all my acts, <br />What I need, <br />Just a loving heart, <br />That can love him, too. <br /> <br />Light is flowing, <br />In all the rivers, <br />Seen or unseen, <br />What I need, <br />Some courage to swim, <br />May be it water or the fire! <br /> <br />The ocean is the same, <br />From East to West, <br />Different names at places, <br />What I need, <br />To fall in the ocean, <br />And forget myself.<br /><br />Akhtar Jawad<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-i-need-25/
