Word, like wind, cuts through you / Withers all but true you

This Love

Khalid Mukhtar · January 22, 2022 · 1 Comment

This love is when you hear a name
And can’t hold back a tear
Because of all that someone did
Before you landed here

This love is for a voice you haven’t
Heard, a face not seen
And ways and manners witnessed in
Descriptions of a scene

This love is like the grief the son
Of Rabāḥ felt down deep
When words that once rang out of him
Could only make him weep

So khalid don’t be sad if all
Your love is shallow streams
Its waters drain the plains to reach
The ocean beyond dreams
