HOPE
I fell in love
And out of love with you
When truthfulness expired between us.
Drawn by the sadness of time
Minutes of repeated striations
Hours of wounded sketching
Days draining color
Outstare me...I dare you
Survey my damage
Morphing into
A dueling masterpiece
For the young artist
A rose flower on my hand
Every night and morning
And noon and the evening
Waiting for someone like...
Because I am romantic poet
Who is designing art of pure
poetry, in midnight on my
bed close to my wife's lips

Is peace to be free

while a war is raging on --


in other countries?

Collection "Human excess"
I came with you,
A Gift from Allah,
And I will return back to HIM with you.
You are my guide,
My companion,
My melodius song.
You get me through life,
I cannot live without you,
Each day and night I pray for your purity.
Soul of mine,
I am glad you are there for me,
One of a kind.

Aishu
Somewhere out there,
two souls waiting
for the kind of love
they deserve.
The eyes and tears were blind to the sorrow of the heart.
