For the love of life
(Poetry)
21-03-2005
by Saad Javed
The scintillant laughters of my loved ones,
the radiant smiles of the innocent souls
All slaughtered to fulfill evil goals,
all massacred by bombs and guns
So much of this war and terror,
enough of this blood and gore
Is this what He...

by Saad Javed
The sleazy heat of the monsoon midnight,
the humid breaths of the seductress

Seizing my attention, my love, my affection,
the sorceress of night...

My First Love
(Poetry)

by Saad Javed
When the larks chirp from far way,
the blossoms bloom and lightly sway
The sun glows brightly above,

Of the ugly apartment building,
it was the sixth floor
And of the building's sixth floor,
it was the last door
Witha click, the keyhole lit up,

It spread out on the door mat,
and shone on the 'WELCOME' sign...

my unfulfilled desires,
and my shattered dreams

by Saad Javed
Far, far, far away
I've dreamt about alighting

22-03-2005
by Saad Javed
Where flowing rivulets wail their thirst
Where trails lead to filth and dust
The lark chirps of misery and dismay
Where the wolves lurk to snatch their prey
Where the breeze mourn the loss of love
Where mercy lies under assault above
The...
