Poetry. . . from Susan Afzal
Immortal
I, The immortal, wander through the night
In some sad and lonely flight.
I thirst for blood and
crave to feel pain.
My lights have fled and
my spirit is dead. I, The immortal, fear no heart
but am afraid of the light.
Though with desire to see just one sunrise,
even if it burns me to ashes on sight. I, The immortal, have such power
but my immortality came with a price.
As I have witnessed
the death of those I loved
for they were helpless and
fell in the hands of time. I, The immortal, now wander through the
mist of time and space.
In some dark and forsaken place.
Cursed forever and
my sins too deep.
I grieve for mortal hearts
as if I feel pain! I, The immortal, shall be what I am.
Till the end of time..... .................................................
Nothing but trouble.
Thought we brought happy ending
but it was just the beginning
of a story never ending.
Sacrifice is like a lame word,
Misunderstanding keeps us apart
from the precious things in life.
Cannot break this bond
for the sake of fate.
So, we wait, as our love slowly fades.
Until we part and find peace
in our graves. .................................................................
By a never-ending sea of darkness.
All things in my room seem
Motionless
And the atmosphere adds much to my
Restlessness. Surrounded by a veil of what seems like
Eternal darkness
I venture into a deep mysterious world
Where evil wins,
Darkness prevails
And shadow my sins.
Devils torment my soul
Till to Nothingness I sink.
In some sad and lonely flight.
I thirst for blood and
crave to feel pain.
My lights have fled and
my spirit is dead. I, The immortal, fear no heart
but am afraid of the light.
Though with desire to see just one sunrise,
even if it burns me to ashes on sight. I, The immortal, have such power
but my immortality came with a price.
As I have witnessed
the death of those I loved
for they were helpless and
fell in the hands of time. I, The immortal, now wander through the
mist of time and space.

Cursed forever and
my sins too deep.
I grieve for mortal hearts

Fate
Life together seems like a struggle.Nothing but trouble.
Thought we brought happy ending
but it was just the beginning
of a story never ending.
Sacrifice is like a lame word,
Misunderstanding keeps us apart
from the precious things in life.
Cannot break this bond
for the sake of fate.
So, we wait, as our love slowly fades.
Until we part and find peace
in our graves. .................................................................
Dark Hours
Every night, I am engulfedBy a never-ending sea of darkness.
All things in my room seem
Motionless
And the atmosphere adds much to my
Restlessness. Surrounded by a veil of what seems like
Eternal darkness
I venture into a deep mysterious world
Where evil wins,
Darkness prevails
And shadow my sins.
Devils torment my soul
Till to Nothingness I sink.
