Undersized limbs

by Sumaiya Ahsan Bushra

 

I opened my eyes to sunshine beauty

I found myself in the warmth of love

I opened my eyes to truth infinity

I raised a finger to feel what she was made of!

 

I had played in the Garden of Eden

As I vaguely recall the day

I had much to do then,

And little to say!

 

I woke up in the middle of an ugly day

Wondering which hell I was wandering around today?

I saw her lean, figure

Silent and asleep, as if entire day had been taken up by me!

 

I wonder if she knew how I felt,

So I let out a moan of joy and agony

Her dark brown eyes looked at me,

And she knew right then, I was her baby!
