Painting by Caspar David Friedrich
Manuscript of a Musafir
Sands of time
preserves
the enduring footprints
of an ancient
journey
Desert winds
carry
fragments of
a caravan
bidding adieu
to the mirage of life
Etched upon
the murky pages of night,
a dream
unveils the shroud
revealing a perennial
tale of a nomad
Horizon unchains
wild waves
smashing hard
upon the
mighty rocks
of kinship
A wayfarer, a
vagabond
walks alone
upon the dusky paths
amidst the
silhouettes of mayhem
A saga of
romance burns bright;
infected by
the madness;
intoxicated
by the liquor of infatuation
Lured by
potent sentiments
grimed with
satire;
a melodrama
seeps through
the scars of
a quill
In the light
of dawn the
dried stains
of ink glitter
on the mossy walls
of a graveyard
From the ashes
of past
a fallen hero
rises again
Beneath the crypt of memories
a manuscript
still breathes
a story of an
undaunted Musafir
