i was moving through the ocean
and flowing within
as flowers bloomed
i sprouted beautifully

the leaves witherd
and fell down


i turned back in my bed
into a perfect silence

i cant keep away
from writing
and seeing you also

then to hug you softly
to the silence of leaves
mixed with light and shadow
when we depart
he promised me
to meet again

what was in his face
untold me in the shroud

many days he came
in my dreams

i asked him
why you ended your life

by leaning to a tree near the grave
he smiled at me softly

his last words
was from poet shelley
here lies a man who
wrote his life on water

(in memory of my friend noufal atholy)

quoted from the film SYLVIA (life of sylvia plath)

some times i dream of a tree
and the tree is my life
one branch is the man i shall marry
and the leaves my children
another branch is my future as a writer
and each leaf is a poem
another branch is a glittering academic carrear
but as i sit there and trying to choose
the leaves began to turn brown
and blow away
until the tree is absolutely bare

it s pleasant time
to write poems
my poet friend said
i also agreed
a thin darkness is
creeping into the dusk
when the breeze swept us
we forgot the coffee cafe

when we depart
i told her
surprise me
with an unexpected call
now she surprises me
with her silence





your letters are windows
between you and i
a window without glasses and curtain
