HOW LONG SHOULD I WAIT?

HOW LONG SHOULD I WAIT?
By: Mahmoud Said Kawash

It is you
Whom I lost my bearings in order to reach
It is you
Whom I endured all kinds of suffering to end my life within your hands
I put everything behind me and followed you
I declared my affiliation for a moment that neither reason nor madness can comprehend
How I longed for that day!!
The scent of cold mountain flowers spread everywhere
My patience leaned on looks that do not know the languages of silence
Moments fall apart from my life
I admonish fate with a question that has always exhausted me:
Was I born to wait my destiny?
The cruelty of waiting made me tired and exhausted!!
The sailing to you without hope made me hopeless and pessimist
I saw you as the sunset of life hidden in the remnants of a torn sail
As ship light sparkles in darkness
As grains of stars which will not be realised by the day
How long should I wait?
When will you realise that you have lost your sails?
No matter how long the farthest shores take you
Addicted to the night meeting, I will keep waiting for the sun to appear
No walls of distance will prevent my heart from sensing your warmth
No chains can prevent me from breathing your cold sighs
I have the patience of all the mountains in the world
I have the silence of possibility and impossibility
I will travel all around the world to look after you
Carrying my lost steps towards a port of wishes
My raindrops that fell from my tears mix to the deepest depths
Despite all I do you stay away from me as much as I get close to you
I make thousands of ships and sails to meet you
Throw them towards the sunset, so they may reach you
They all drown in the horizon and depart to infinity
Gloomy darkness covers me, swallowing all the meanings of life into its depths
A bitter cold embraces my depths
So I stay with the features of the moon
Where I see you in
