Beautiful scars

You gave me beautiful scars that once made me cry.
But now I smile about it all!

[ Happy Father's day ]

24. I'm twenty-four

Hello, I know there's someone out there
Who can understand
And who's feeling the same way as me
I'm twenty-four and I've got everything to live for
But I know now that it wasn't meant to be
Cause all has been lost and all has been won
And there's nothing left for us to save
But now I know that I don't want to be alone today
So if you find that you've been feeling just the same

Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

I've got a photograph, I'll send it off today
And you will see that I am perfectly sane
Not for a lifetime or forever and a day
Cause we know now that just won't be the case

Call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

There will be no commitment and no confessions
And no little secrets to keep
No little children or houses with roses
Just the end of the world and me
Cause all has been gone and all has been done
And there's nothing left for us to save
But we could be together as they blow it all away
And we can share in every moment as it breaks

So, call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

So, call me now it's alright
It's just the end of the world
You'll need a friend in the world
Cause you can't hide
So call and I'll get right back
If your intentions are pure
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

Chris Cornell: Preaching The End lyrics.

Three times three

Would you paint my light creamy walls,
turn the dust into notes and sing me the waltz?!

Would you play me the sax,
share my Fax and and stop loving me after glasses of Jack's?!

Would you fly me to a white land,
freeze until we band and make me a snowman out of sand?!

I say, let's melt.

I'm [ here ] not there

_ Where have you been?!
_ I've been swinging between digital landscapes and rolled portraits.
[ Furn El Chebbak ] living

The land I come from

_ I just don't know what I'm supposed to be.
I thought maybe I wanted to be a writer... But I hate what I write, and I tried taking pictures, but John's so good at that, and mine are so mediocre...
And every girl goes through a photography phase, like horses, you know dumb pictures of your feet...
_ You'll figure it out. I'm not worried about you. Keep writing.
_ But, I'm mean.
_ That's ok.

[ Green Syria Land ]

“ You're so [ fresh fresh ] exciting, so exciting to me.

She couldn't speak properly anymore
but she knew how to ask for her mirror, comb and powder.

She wanted to look chic; nothing more
when I could smell her perfume turning souer.

I set there.. Holding her hand for an hour or so.
Carressing it and getting replies every now and then with pressure too low.

I kissed this hand for the first time in my life.. I kissed it twice:
I communicated properly with an old version of my own mother through the wrinkled hand.

She didn't have to speak anymore. I understood that she was leaving.. So tired to carress mine that she had to leave.

And this morning of September I see her blue silent face wrapped
in a white fabric - looking so alive yet so anxious to leave.

A little anger is good for the heart.. The circulation, the skin.

لم يكن الاسبوع الاخير مصدر الهام لافكاري بل غافلني كاعصار وجرّدني من مشاعري

شكّكني بهويّتي؛ عنّفني كما لو في البراري وتركني جائعة لكلمات أنهي بها أشعاري

I'm sorry for being such a coward.

ماما هالة

أنتِ هالتي

هالةٌ يرَوْنها الآخرونَ تنيرُ كياني

أنتِ معلِّمتي

معلِّمةٌ درَّست الكلمة لأجيالٍ غيري

أنتِ والدتي

والدةٌ حَبلت بروحَيْن اثنين مثلي

أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ أحبُّكِ
