YOU BETRAYED MY MEETING
Mahmoud Said Kawash
It is only you to whom I lost my ways in order to reach him
It is you whom I endured those difficult days of my life to end up in his hands
I left everything and left for you
I declared my belonging to a moment that neither reason nor even madness can comprehend
How much I burned with longing for that day
When the waves clash and scatter particles of a meeting over the whole world
Exuding the scent of cold mountain flowers
My waiting relies on looks that do not know the languages of silence
Looks that search for you and wonder about your whereabouts
Moments of my life collapse
So I reproach fate with a big question that has always exhausted me
Was I created to wait?
Yes, the harshness of this waiting has exhausted me
And my eyes are tired of sailing to you without hope
I see it as the sunset of life folding in its depths the remains of a sail
And the lights of ships sparkling in the darkness
Like stars that the day cannot reach
And a meeting that always wonders!!
How long will the wait last?
And when will you realise, no matter how much the winds wander with your sails
And take you to the farthest shores
That I will keep waiting for the appearance of a sun addicted to meeting the night
In the colour of sunset?
No walls of distances will prevent my heart from sensing your warmth
Or thousands of restrictions will prevent me from breathing the sighs of your cold
I held in my palm the patience of the mountains
And the voice of the impossible sang in my silence
And I left looking for you
Lost steps carry me towards a port of wishes
Some raindrops mingle falling from my tears to the farthest depths
And I distance myself as much as I get closer to you
I make thousands of ships and sails that carry my meeting
I throw them towards the sunset so that they may reach you
And drowning overtakes them
And they disappear with the departing horizon to the end
A dark darkness covers me that swallows all the meanings of life
A bitter cold embraces my depths
So I take shelter in the features of the moon in which I see you
Your image is reflected on it
And you see me waiting, but you do not care and move away
My waiting falls on a stone
My patience crumbles and the waves swallow it
My silence speaks, so I complain and complain
Yes, I complain, and I will complain about your deception
I will complain about my waiting for you and suffice with a cry of pain
How much I waited for you, but you betrayed my meeting!!
