Perspective By M. Ali

A Day Such As This By M. Ali

A rainy slow Sunday

Quiet and still

Searching for purpose and reason

Drinking slowly on poor mans liquor

Gazing out out of a blurry window

Into nothingness

Thinking about the past

Remembering a love

Wishes and regrets

Mistakes and glory

Feeling old

Feeling alone

Feeling small

The Best of All Pleasures By M. Ali

Just the simplicity of me loving you

was the best of all pleasures

No reciprocation beyond a smile was ever needed

It was an honor greater than all other

A divine luxury

A gracious privilege

Just your presence

Just the thought of you

Just the experience of me loving you

was the best of all pleasures

I Loved You By M. Ali

I loved you

I loved you hard

I loved you more than everything

You were my vice

You were gravity

You were everything perfect and pure

Girl, I loved you more than sanity

I loved you more than family

I loved you so hard

Didn't you know
