I WATCH YOU ALIVE AND I DIE

I WATCH YOU ALIVE AND I DIE
By Mahmoud Said Kawash

There across the vast expanse of the earth
I inhabit the cities of silence alone
And I do not accept any letters that console me
I have abandoned all languages
I have broken the chains of silence to scatter around me
Nothing envelops me but dark concrete walls
Without holes of light penetrating them
I have established the borders of alienation
And traveled with my sorrows
With cracks that live on the features of my parts
Moaning from the excess of pain
I rest with my pains at the farthest-limit-s of the abyss
I am covered by skies that no sunrise´-or-even sunset can reach
I inhabit that pale spot without any rituals and without any life
Leaving you with all the signs of joy covering the ice of your features
You live in the cities of longings alone
You inhabit the kingdoms of love without me
If your heart can do that
Yes, my love, I will leave you all the spaces of the world
To accommodate only the breath of yourself
Perhaps you will realise how I contained you
As for me, I will remain on this other side of the pulse of life
Watching you live and then it’s over!!
