DREAMLIGHT || RAHMAT A MUHAMMAD || POETRY
DREAMLIGHT
The skies home little twinkling stars
Singing my name in an alluring accent
When darkness descends.
Here, we fold ourselves into metaphors
Calligraphed within untitled verses
And sing them out to the winds,
To the waters that hold the history of ours.
Take my hand, dear, look into my open heart.
Tell me, what does it look like,
Say, unborn dreams and forgotten memories?
Dear, tell me why you giggle at the sight of dawn.
Singing my name in an alluring accent
When darkness descends.
Here, we fold ourselves into metaphors
Calligraphed within untitled verses
And sing them out to the winds,
To the waters that hold the history of ours.
Take my hand, dear, look into my open heart.
Tell me, what does it look like,
Say, unborn dreams and forgotten memories?
Dear, tell me why you giggle at the sight of dawn.
