Amongst the Delusions: A Fragment

By Simra Khan

Far from fear and far from pain
I mirror those thoughts in the head for vain
A powerful trap of the delusional world
My senses, my mind, my feelings go hurled

What a perfect blend of beauty and the beast
I stay in this world, yet I stay the least
Embracing the darkness, while I pass through the light
Does this delusional world have days and nights ?

Their flaws I let go, imperfections are everywhere
Silent as I am, would they really care ?
My esteem at stake, my emotions repressed
What if I question, would they really address ?

So I do not hinder, the unimagined sorrow
Embracing the danger, waiting for tomorrow
Amongst the delusions, God shows me the light
As heavily I pray, he ask me to hold tight

Building questions and objections, unravelling emotions
Delusion collapses, my perception becomes the notion
Victim becomes the villain, problem an interrogation
Broken parts of my trust, lie in the conversation



As this heart obeys God, more than it obeys people
He seizes me from the delusion, letting go off the kipple
A firm believer if you are, God will never leave you in illusions
To open your eyes to that light, which you missed amongst the Delusions.
