in love’s strangely lit beds, where the cold springs creak:
for there is...

Sings the story at twilight 
When the moon is just rising, 
Sings a simple troubadour 
The short tale of life. 

How a fine boy, 
Born in a palace, 
A palace like crystal, 
Became a proud...

Don’t you want to be saved from fear?

I won’t let you go into the flames of destruction

Don’t you want to live our life in cheer?

I shouldn’t worry the way I do or I won’t function

One individual called "she" stepped into the sheets of a life story
Sheets that used to be occupied
She walked back and stopped at a chapter which tell the story of an obsolete chamber
A space which stands...

Fake can never trump real with its mimickation.
Would you rather walk among Real Flowers in a real flower bed
Or would you prefer to walk among flowers, plastic...

Take a drive along a lonely road,
A dull highway with only the husks
Of cars and rotting flesh inside.
If you can find a certain groove
In the road, a particular line, then
You will be able to drive...

Woke up this morning, in my home all alone
Set up your picture, in the hall by the phone
I glanced at the kids faces, hanging there on the wall
Dropped to my knees and prayed, there in...

Life is not a simple path
It has many twists and turns
Neither it is a bed of flowers 
It gives you very painful burns.

Challenges are a part of life
There are many crossroads in the way
But we...

our hearts were once joined,
 
now apart the degrees
 
of separation are burning,
 
my wounds are weeping 
 
there is no other day
 
 
 
judgment came yesterday
 
Autumn leaves began their journey
 
as my...

I seek you in the silence of the night when the moon rises over the sleeping world,
On deserted streets where memories ripple like a delicate mist,
Where every whisper becomes a murmurous carpet of images and...

Take me back to them days in the fall
When we spent our days breathing each other in with the air. Entranced. In thrall.
Where I held you beside me stood out in the entrance. Like them...

Mother in the kitchen stirring a batch of lemonade,
Children in the wheat field hide and seek is what they play,
Father in the shed tinkering with his little trains,
Grandparents listen to music talking about the evening...

Pixie walks in the magical forest with sprites, 
pixies, and leprechauns all play all day long,

I give you rains of crystals,
Clouds of golden silver flakes,
Rays of rainbows in a misty dew,
I dance in a bed...

I look into your eyes and I see green
Green as the grass growing underfoot
Lips the colour of ripe cherries
Or an azalea bush as its flowers float
in the pond of life which is so blue
Maybe a...

kissing your lips is like falling into a bed of flowers
you use them lips to talk to me on the phone for hours

the very thought of your lips touching mine
runs shivering chills up my spine

O'er the mountainous peak,
Unto the valley portrayed,
Amongst thine own life to dwell
Alone to bittersweet day.
   Do thou knowest thy beauty
Of thine own beloved in thought?
Faithful to the heart of yore,
Enraptured romance is sought.

Single for life


Alone I stride in life contented and glad,
No need of love, for it can make one sad
Just me and my mind, never divided we two
Free from worries, that come with being wooed.

False peace...

Standing alone in the land of frozen dreams
She awaits him in all extremes.
Unknown enough yet she entrusts her life with him.
Unconditional is her love and strange as it seems.

He gleams through the darkness as she...

Silver threads amongst the gold
They have  a story to be told

Of balmy nights and satin sheets
Of hands a touching and kissing feet

Lying in a bed of flowers
Steamy fun under the shower

Legs entwined tongues on fire

Drunk Happiness
Tarek Hasan

Maya ghunura is why you today?
Why do not you see! The old harness
Dancing on music , bowl of wine in hand
sitdown nearby, Large lost.

Drunken traverses, confer was mind 
Yet I saw your smile,

If only I were a fairy, 
then I could just fly away, 
and escape this toxic abyss 
that I’m faced with every day. 
With wings to guide me, 
and a magic wand to cure,
