Shalom


A Conversation: Part 13


Usman:

As I sit on the cliff's edge, and think
Of her, and her luscious lips of rosy pink
Her voice flows down the mountainside
And gently pushes me off the brink


Sai:

This one is called "Shalom"

Close your eyes and tell me,
What do you see?
Do you see a reflection of that person,
Who you used to adore,
Or a reflection of you,
Standing there just alone?

Stare for a while...
You'll see the image fade,
Right in front of your eyes.

Then maybe you'll know...
If it's the loss that makes your eyes tear,
Or if it's a blessing in disguise,
That has unleashed
Unknown tears of joy.
Shalom.
