Hashmina Habeeb - Adieu And Back

I had flown over a bridge
a bridge that lead to pearly gates.
While on my way I stumbled, stopped by
a milestone that read'it's not yet.
Directed me back to land
of seven wonders
Where grave diggers and followers
of Hippocrates lived.
They brought me back and chained
me to life.
Suffocated I feel now in sympathetic air.
Both blown and breathed out of
blood relations care.
Night blankets day and day wakes
night summer, winter autumn and
spring again
Thoughts remain as life remains
when its time, I will fly again.
