River
MY river runs to thee:
Blue sea, wilt welcome me?
My river waits reply.
Oh sea, look graciously!
I ’ll fetch thee brooks
From spotted nooks,—
Say, sea,
Take me!

YOU left me, sweet, two legacies,—
A legacy of love
A Heavenly Father would content,
Had He the offer of;
You left me boundaries of pain
Capacious as the sea,
Between eternity and time,
Your consciousness and me.

Dont ask me for the same love, my sweetheart
I thought that life was radiant because of you
Why complain of worldly woes, once in your love-affliction
Your countenance brings eternity to the youth of spring
What else is there in the world but for the beauty of your eyes
If you were mine, my destiny would surrender to me
This was not so, only my wish for it to be
There are sufferings in the world other than the suffering of love
There are pleasures other than the delight of our union
Dark, heinous spells of uncountable centuries.
Woven into rich silk and precious brocades
being sold in every corner, bodies,
covered in dirt, drenched in blood.
Bodies, burning in hot ovens of disease
Pus seeping from open, lacerating wounds.
My sight returns to this as well, I am helpless
Your beauty is heart-warming still, but I am helpless
There are sufferings in the world other than the suffering of love
There are pleasures other than the delight of our union
Dont ask me for the same love, my sweetheart!

Do you come to me to bend me to your will
as conqueror to the vanquished
to make of me a bondslave
to bear you children, wearing out my life
in drudgery and silence
no servant will i be
if that be what you ask. O lover i refuse you!
Or if you think to wed with one from heaven sent
whose every deed and word and wish is golden
a wingless angel who can do no wrong
go! - i am no doll to dress and sit for feeble worship
if that be what you ask, fool, i refuse you! Read more

My dear Master,
This is a letter from a stupid woman
Has a stupid woman before me, written to you?
My name? Lets put names aside
Rania, or Zaynab
or Hind or Hayfa
The silliest thing we carry, my Master - are names
(2)
My Master:
I am frightened to tell you my thoughts
I am frightened - if I did -
that the heavens would burn
For your East, my dear Master,
confiscate blue letters
confiscate dreams from the treasure chests of women
Practices suppression, upon the emotions of women Read more

She walks in Beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which Heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

I set here in front of this computer,
Wondering how this could be.
I was not looking for a suitor.
I just wanted someone to talk to me.
Along came you.
We started to talk and share.
Before I knew.
I began to care.
How can this be?
Now I want to know.
Do you feel the same about me?
Or should I just go.

You cheat me twice
rolling those dice
gambling on chance
simply playing romance.
Deal the cards
of my hearts shards
toy with me
to get what you see.
Treasures and gold
are the things you wish to behold
Stabbing my heart
is only the start.
Playing the slots
Lucky 777 was what you got
riches pour
and my heart grows so sore.

Want to be the face that stops you in your tracks
And when you walk by, you have to stop and look back
Want to have the smile that makes you share your own
And when you look at it, you feel you’ve found your home
Want to have the personality you just can’t resist
And makes you think it doesn’t get better than this.
Want to be that girl you like, but can’t explain why
And you start listing a million reasons when you try.
Want to be all you need, and never worry you’ll stray
But I’m not that kind of girl, so your wandering eyes say.

I met you not so long ago,
But you’ve already touched my heart,
With your smile, your touch and your loving presence,
It’s like I’ve been struck with cupids dart.
I fell in love with your amazing charm,
And your loving touch,
It’s like I already know we are meant to be,
It’s just I like you so, so much.
Everytime I see you,
It make’s my heart skip a beat,
And everytime I see you,
It make’s me feel complete.
