Immortality
Quaid-Uz-Zaman 1954 (Jamalpur)

I never existed.
And I do not exist now and so will never exist
but always a being out of nothingness
that traces back to the Supreme, the eternity
the essence of which I know not
I am a soul
A body of lust and desires.
I am a thirst perpetual
A love universal
A fire indistinguishable
A riddle answered
unwisely,
over described,
Yet undefined .
I am a pulse to be felt in the pulsation of an unknown pulsar. Existence is on the other Hand.
I have always been immersed beyond my existence.
And without mortal existence
I glorify myself in Oneness.
Quaid-Uz-Zaman, Station Road, Jamalpur.
