I’m Yasir Kayani, an Attorney at law, Writer, Poet and Human Rights activist. I belong to Pakistan’s district which is far flung from the capital of my country. My city, Kasur is situated on the periphery of Pakistan’s eastern border with India. But how far I am, we all belong to one family and that is human family. Poetry given a flip to imaginations. I do poetry in English as well as in my National language i.e. Urdu. As no body has ever measure, not even poets how much the heart can hold. Poetry is the medium that tries to measure the heights of imagination and depth of one’s feelings. Rainer Maria Rilke once said, “The only journey is the one within.” And through poetry, I travel from within, I am in search of the universe within, the secrets and mysteries within myself, the woof and warp of Nature within and the dazzling light that guides me always. Being a Human Rights activist, I wish to depart this world feeling content that I fulfilled my duty to my fellow human beings. I wish you all an illuminating journey towards yourself! ”               

Love beyond time and space

Beyond the sight of my apparent eyes

I see you in the garden of love

Where the souls fuse into each other

Around the bezels of seraphs

Under the ceil of divine light

Just you and me holding each other

With an everlasting heavenly thread

Sheathing us tightly to become one

Out beyond the time and space

We experience the purity of love

Love takes us towards timelessness

And changes our finiteness to infinity
