Half Sleep

By Mohsina Dadu

Not many stars and drooped sky
Frozen plants and mosquitoes cry.

Heartbeat runs with whining dogs, 
Silence is piercing with crinkling knob
Thoughts in veins as blood flows.

Me, wrapped with thoughts
Lying layered with emptiness
Rolling eyes, chatting mind
And ears ringing for some forlorn
Dancing ceiling, claiming to fall
No one,my side to claim
No one for me to blame.

And then, I met with my dream
Starry morning,rosy sky
Dancing plants, all delighted guy
Humming doves,and sparrow's chirp
Baby's giggle and gaily family slurp.

Such absolute world desired deep,
And so remained lie in my world half sleep.
