Hajra Khan's Profile

The Moon Game by Hajra Khan - Pakistan

It's okay to feel it all.

It's okay to feel half,

Or nothing, nothing at all.

Shhh... Can you hear her silent plea?

How she gains when she falls,

How she knows her own path.

You'll never know if she cries, mourns or rejoices,

For she hides herself in daylight.

Away from the people, away from pain,

I have told you once and I'll tell you again...

When I look at you

I fall into your mirage

as a thirsty crow in a desert for water

The heat haze turns me blind every day

burning my desire to see you each day

Making my heart thump as fast as it can
