The Dervish ...

There is so much life in our days .. There is so much Light that we can hold .. There is so much space to carry our body within .. There is so much skies to look at .. There is so much air to breathe .. There is so much beauty to behold .. There is so much freedom to embrace .. There is so much self of ours .. There is so much projection to reality .. There so much flesh than our own .. There is so much heart .. There is so much of Nothing & there is so much of Everything …..

Coffee Thoughts ...

I will not hide my Happiness fearing a jinxing eye. I will not avoid speaking about amazement in my life. I will not claim things nor speak creeps to nurture void gossip. I will spoil, spread & share all the love and warmth within me fearlessly no matter the consequences ... I will smile in your face coz its contagious and it also maintain my wrinkles lifted. I will not give myself hard time even if the world is full of miseries. I will celebrate daily being young, beautiful and Alive. And most of all, I will not give an ear to bad mouths nor elementary mediocre speeches. Yes, am self-content and not afraid to spend time alone. There is nothing more liberating and joyful than wanting you rather than needing you. And NO, I will not hide my cellulite to look good infront of you. 

ثم تنتهي جميع الحروب و معها كل العُقَد ...

حبيبي , عند البحر سأنتظرك كى نقفز بالحياة قفزة الشجاعة ... تذكر أنني سأنتظرك ليلا كي نتخلص من ظلنا المتثاقل بالذكريات ... سأمسك يديك ثم سأقبل شفتيك و لن أغلق عينيي .. و أنت لن تغلق عينيك أيضا ... و قبل أن نسبح بأجسادنا, سنرقص عرايا , سنضحك ضحك هيستيري , ثم نسكت لنكتشف أنه لن يكون هناك فراقا بعد اليوم , لن نجد ما نلوم به أنفسنا أو الأخرين , لن نأذي أحد و لن يستطيع أحد أن يأذينا ... بعد اليوم, و من تلك اللحظة الي الأبد لن تسيطر علينا أي فكرة عن أي قهر محتمل ... حبيبي, عند البحر سأنتظرك كي نقفز و نتحرر و لن نعود بأدراجنا و لن يفتقدنا أحد ...
