green grass in Lebanon

Civil War

I used to lay down
In the tall grass
Face turned to the sky
Arms open wide
Welcoming
Breeze
Sun rays
Laughter of the woods.

Argument

The words floated
On a bed left undone
With sheets ruffled
Long ago
In a time
When our love
Was our manna.

يا ريت

يا ريت بقول لحالي شي يوم
الحياة ماشية ما بتوقف ولا بتنطر
ليش قاعدي بعدك بالهم واللوم
زتي عن كتافاتك هالحمل لي بضر

Fear

me thinks of fear
how it crawls under the skin
hurries the drumbeats
kindles the fire
into the blood stream
makes the eyes roll back
taking away a last breath
