LET US WRITE THE LETTERS OF THE END!!
By Mahmoud Said Kawash
I saw him disappearing from me
His ink bleeding deliberately
To remain silent
He used to live my lines as a suicide
His letters ascend to the same gallows every day
To practice the same sin of surrendering to my fate
To return as a suicide again
Travelling with lost lines
Engraving fleeting dreams
Because he knows the end
Just worn-out papers
Exhausted by the journey between the geography of the land of love
Inhabiting labyrinths of dark caves
And all its anchorage was terrain of dullness and mountains of selfishness
Rocks that draw all its shores
And sails of sailing hearts outside the borders of its pulse
I read my alienation with my own eyes
My pen spoke it as rains poured by the clouds of my thought
They met between the folds of a cloud of tears Fire
The nozzle of my inkwell throws it
How heavy I am
Even my teardrops carried my pain
They were all reflected on the mirror of a city that carried my soul
A pain shattered my sad mirrors Small mirrors
Each one carried a part that engraved me
Lost among them I did not find myself
Black curtains folded me
Announced the death of feelings that were alive
And the suicide of pulses on the walls of desolate caves
Sentencing my body to depart from me
Oh the pain of my shadow s reflection
How miserable you are with me
And nothing makes me lonely except you
A stranger. I live my homeland
My identity is exiled
Isn t this enough for you to leave me?
Isn t this enough for your farewells from me?
Isn’t enough for you to say goodbye to me
So bid me farewell
I have lost the appetite to devour my sorrows alone
I promise you my pen that I will make my palms ports of life for you
And you will never sail again among the meanings of deception
Come, let us inhabit islands of lines that do not swallow mines of people
You have endured for me what is unbearable of bloody inks that write me
I resisted and endured until I finished
And it is time for me to carry you with what is in you
Come, let us write together the letters of the end
Yes, the end!!
