Autumn Never Rusts Away

Yawar Maajed

Forget the fantasy of the thousand nights,
For, its been centuries and I have been trying to embody just one single imagination
The mammoth of the wish
I have in my heart
Is just this curiosity, unending
Dying for the moment when it will find its destination

But that moment!!
That dreadful moment,
When all the wishes of the heart
Join together
Becoming one
Wearing the mourning dresses
In the below freezing cold of time
Leave rust on a world of mine!!

The spring time calls me
from far ahead
from the gardens of my dreams
But the autumn
It just refuses to rust away
