“There must be some sort of beauty
In brokenness
You are broken again and again
Each time you got stronger

And I,
I am broken again and again
Till there were nothing but shatters

But that’s the beauty
You big as the sky
Me flat as the earth
In the horizon we meet

In dark, you rise with stars in your chest
I stay grounded, heavy with silence
You are made of storms every then and now
And I, of dust and echo
But for a moment, a breath, we are whole again.”

“Let the world spin without us for a while
No need to smile
No need to run
Just breathe, and let me walk beside

if you stumble, I will stand
If you fall, I will kneel
Let’s light a small fire between our palms

What does it take
To make a leap of faith
Trust once more
Stand up and walk again?

Take my hand, my love
I won't let it slide
Let's walk a mile
See? Your hand fits perfectly in mine.”
In my sleepless dreams
I see you coming back

The dusk casts a
Shadow on your face
The setting sun
The rising moon
Banish the gap
Between us.
Safrina Kabir Nov 2024
We could talk for hours
Me and your silent crooked smile
Instead I see you from afar
Cascade of curls, sun-burnt skin
Familiar movement across the barn
It's my evening hymn

O stranger
Come and shape my dream
Safrina Kabir Jul 2024
My heart was numb for so long
I forgot it was there
Cupid's arrow struck so hard
It beats again
And bleeds the colour
      It should always have
The red of love
It tastes so good
             The blood of heart
It hurts so bad
              The slit unstitched
Safrina Kabir Apr 2024
The sun seems dim in front of you
The stars don't shine the way you do
Every steps you take
Is another epitome of success
Is another hue of blue
Safrina Kabir Mar 2024
Under the hood of rain today,
A shining star is slipping away.
But still, I'll be lighted by you,
The brightest star, wherever you may stay.
Safrina Kabir Jan 2024
I am new
I am green
I can, and I will

I am not the past
I won't be the gone
I will be the new
I am the one rose just now
Bathed from the fire of the morn
