Girls still look at me <br />and though they smile... <br />Their eyes speak <br />A multitude of words. <br /> <br />Once offering me hearts <br />No longer I see <br />My age revealed <br />by the creases of time <br /> <br />I feel my insides <br />breaking into pieces. <br />The hope of the dream... <br />Vanishes in a cold sigh. <br />_____ <br />Poem In Pashto By: Afzal Shauq <br />Translated in English By: Alley Boling <br />Book: 'TWIST OF FATES' Poem No.263/Page.336 <br />Web Link: http: //khyberwatch.com/nandara/index.php? <br /> option=com_content&task=view&id=378&Itemid=1 <br />PDF files: http: //khyber.org/books/ashauq/index.shtml <br />Poet's weblog: www.tolafghan.com/members/afzalshauq <br />© Afzal Shauq<br /><br />Afzal Shauq<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/age-counts/
