Written Words

Written Words
by Rizwan Ahmed Memon

The words 
On the paper
Are not mere
Words.
In them is a history,
A story of love,
And a chapter of sadness.
The words on the paper
Are not just words.

Voices of silent people
You will hear
When you read
The words on the paper.
You will know
The oppressor
And the innocent
The words on the paper
Are not mere words.

The Waves of the ocean--
 And the sand of the desert
You will feel
If you read,
The words on the paper.
 Lies and realities
Will surprise you
If you go through
The words on the paper.

The words
On the paper
Are not mere
Words.
In them is a history,
A story of love,
And a chapter of sadness.
The words on the paper
Are not just words.
