A Glass Shell of the Heart
Anwer Ghani
Here, in the jar of my heart,
the seasons of your love.
A wildflower that never withered,
flowing in a whispering night,
like a fragrance seeking refuge.
Where I drank
from the warmth of your soul.
My heartbeats were not fleeting,
but dewdrops kissing the cheek of your rose,
and piercing the breast of your longing,
to sprout new secrets,
like a river caressing the hills,
marching with your shadow
behind the windows,
in enchanting silence.
In this warm embrace,
I realized that your love is
preserved forever,
in a glass shell
deep within me.
