The sun taught me how to control this house of fire
I light up floating candles throughout the way to an empty land where I fire cursed fireballs
I burn less as I shoot my shooting stars
I am present
I am here
I am the daughter of the Sun
Don't come too close
Don't wish upon my dead shooting stars
Huda Mar 2018
Falling under the pressure of sanity, I let go
Crawling back to myself, insanely comfortable
How to not drown? **** learning how to swim, avoid water
Don't get burned either burning hurts as much
I've been burnt underwater and let me tell you
It stays with you forever
It shows sometimes
sometimes it's you
Huda Mar 2020
I wonder if I'm going to ever be in complete control of my emotions, I wonder if I want to have that as well.
It effects all aspects of my life, I water a flower and if it doesn't grow I get all sorts of emotion, every person I let into my life I cannot imagine ever losing them which is wrong but I feel it anyway, if the ocean is frustrated and the waves show it, I feel it too.. When it's calm I'm calm. I want to own things and this is the hardest part, starting with myself to everything I love deeply.. I have wronged myself letting my emotions take control. I cannot feel this heavy anymore, I'm too old for this but I also refuse to never feel again. What is the Grey area? I'll learn to accept it and love this color instead of black or white.
Huda Mar 2018
Flipping through the pages ignorantly, walking out of everything before it walks out on me, before it rips me open.
I walk, I run but I seem to be doing it on circles
Collecting what's left of me to find a way out of the circle.
All the voices are repeating what is said in order
LEARN YOUR ******* LESSON
And I'll leave the circle?
People are people
it's endless
endless is a circle
Huda Mar 2017
I might be out of words when it comes to you, welcome me into the world of nothingness.
Huda Apr 2015
You slowly, carefully add the tiny navy blue feathers one by one after fully believing  I can't grow wings on my own. You hold my hand and tell me all about dark broken promises and promise me one. You hold me like I'm a million hundred worth glass crown that's about to break and place it proudly on your head for people to see. Or, at least that's what I thought. You're a part of me I thought I can't detach, true it was hard and painful when you started detaching me but I still believe that you're a part of me I can't ******* detach. My trust lowers slowly on the only person I fully trusted, but it's all right. It's alright. I look at the mirror and see your words written on my forehead, and I weep. I remember your words, how my secrets disgust you, how you say I disgust you. I close my eyes and ears to hear you hating on me to see you effortlessly break the glass crown with your bare hand and wipe the blood from the glass cuts away, I see you burning down my wings, you know all I thought I had was you, all I thought I loved was you and the only place I thought I fully belonged was where you accept me. I hardly believe my own thoughts anymore. I hardly fully love anyone anymore. I trust everyone but with complete trust that they'll betray it and it feels so good, it feels so good because at least I've learned my lesson this time, or haven't I? I miss you a lot, if you're thinking that I've placed a stranger in your place like you did, you're completely wrong. As I said, again and forever, you're a part of me and you can't just cut a part of your body and live like nothing happened. Or can you? It's either you're proving this fact wrong, or I never was a part of you in the first place. I'm in denial about this, I'll always be. Hopefully not.

اظهر لك ما أخفيه عن نفسي
تعال لأعزف على اوتارك ألحان التمني
فمعازفي تشتكي شوقا
وسفينتي تريد ان ترسي
عشت ببحرٍ، بعاصفةٍ، بقصرٍ
لكن افكاري تتوقك حينما تمسي  
إليك الرجوع و الانتماء
و أقصى رغبات البقاء
فكل ما دونك هراء
والحنين.. فيني لعينيك ليس له فناء
تشتهي نفسي الصحيح منك و الخطأ
تشتهي نفسي و يكاد ينهيها الظمأ
تشتهي نفسي لكن ما رغبت به بعيد
وليس كل مرغوب يدرك
وليس كل مبتسم سعيد..

Free yourself
If they free you
They're your freedom
You're stuck
until you no longer want freedom
Huda Jul 2017
يقولون صبرٌ جميلٌ
صبرت و سوف اصبر
يقولون الصبر مفتاح الفرج
صبرت و لا زلت اصبر
أمطرت صبرا
شربت فنجاناً من الصبر
غرقت ببحر من الصبر
نمت و ما أيقظني الا الصبر
وجده يعدد لي ههمومي و يقول لي انا حلولها
صبر جميل؟
نفاذ صبري لا يرى الجمال
ولا فنجاني يقرأ لي حروفه
اني اغرق بوعود الصبر الكاذبة
سأجد بقعةً دافئةً تواسيني
فالصبر مجرد وهم
كذبة اشبعتني دقّاً على كتفي
و اكْتفيت بها لسنين
فهي ليست لي الان
لا ارى كلمة تواسيني
ولا سحابة تمطر
فبدل الصبر و الحروف الهائمة
سوف أخطو خطواتِ العمى
Huda Feb 2015
I stand alone where we first stood
and the place offers me three pills

the first pill will give me the rush, the shivers and the loss of breath, one more warm cup of coffee with a last cigarette, burnt fingers with a puff of cold breeze and three cracked stars that no longer shine

The second pill will make me live through everything again and gives me a chance to ask the unasked questions for the sake of sanity

The third pill offers nothing but making all this go away
there was no good and bad
it was all just a sneak peek of perfection

I cling to my bed, sink your scent in
whisper to myself: "It's just you"

dragging myself into earth
I open the doors of reality to pick between
the burning fire
the darkest cave
and the edge of falling an endless fall

But knowing that by picking any of these doors
I'm accepting to be alone

I take all three pills and pick to stay where I am and go to deep sleep and let my dreams and nightmares choose for me
Huda Dec 2015
Don't look at me, let's not talk.
let's not fall, we'll both **** up.

But I'll write this one for you and only you
I don't get it
but I do surely understand

I don't need you to talk some sense into me
I felt your words crawling under my skin
when you try and hold my hand
when you try to kiss me
after breaking eye contact that barely lasted a second
We shall forget what's forgotten.
Huda May 2019
بل النور واجب اخر النفق و يرحلون و ترحل بعض من عقلانيتي
يرحل خليل و لا ترحل ذكراه معه
و يرحل خليل ولا ترحل  وعوده معه

و انا يا صديقي تهمني زخارف تزين طبقي
فالجمال حولي يجمل يومي
و لا تأخذني ذكريات كانت بيننا
الا لنفق عاتم الظلمة
و يرد عليها عقلي
بل النور واجب باخر النفق
تعلقي يالنفق

الشمس توعدك بالشروق في كل غروب
و تعود بدفئها ووعودها الصادقة
تعلقي بالشمس
لا تتعلقي بباتسامة خليل
بل تعلقي برب العباد
Huda May 2022
أستمع لأغنية تذكرني بماضي انتهى
بماضينا الذي انتهى
بقصتنا التي انتهت
بحب حاولنا انقاذه و انتهى
و لا تفاسير للشعور الذي يعتريني
كأنه لم ينتهي..
خسرت روحي روحك قبل ان يخسر جسدي جسدك
فما هذا الشعور الذي يعتريني حين أستمع لهذه الكلمات؟
و ليس من المفترض ان اكتب ما اكتبه
لأني موقنة اننا وجدنا انفسنا حين خسرنا بعض
لكنه شعور لم ينتهي
ان قرئت ما كتبت
هذا ليس عني و عنك
ليس هناك انا و انت
هذا للشعور الغريب
المؤكد انه سينتهي
تمنيا ان يهجرني
Huda Oct 2015
I wash my hands seventy five times trying to get rid of your invisible fingerprints on my hands, I walk hundreds of miles trying to beat the record of walking the path to reach at least a thought from your head, a glimpse of your imperfection, but I fail miserably.

The End
Huda Aug 2015
Just because I'm giving you your space doesn't mean it's easy for me to do so, my distractions aren't working anymore I'm dried up while drowning, swallowed all the water and still half alive wishing for the best.
Huda Nov 2017
Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and again and again and again and again and again.

Take a peek, is it good enough?
Do you know what you want?
Would you rather choose for it to be chosen for you?
Do you know what you want?
Do they know what you want?
Does anyone?
Do you?

المحبين التائهين بين الشك و اليقين
Huda May 2020
اراقب الفضاء الذي يحوم حولنا و أراه يتمدد ببطء
و اتمدد و اتمزق و أتوجع لكني انفسح و اتوسع..
يعتريني شعور ان ما احس به لا ارض له لا جاذبيه لكن شعور يتلذذ بأسفل البطن لا يمكن أن يخطأ
أنتظر الشمس بعد كل فجر لعل هنالك وعد مسموع
أتذكرك قبل المنام و تأخذني لأرض الشواطئ
"مفتاحك هو أن لا تتوقفين عن المضي."
لا معنى لتفاسير الواقع
لا صديق للوجه الضائع
لا ام للروح الضائعه
اذا حقا مضيت، لا معنى للذكريات
"تخلصي من كل هدية تألم، كل رسالة خط يدي بها يجرحك، لعنة الصور لا تمحى حتى تُحرق"
و تلمس أطراف قدماي الأرض و يتقشعر جسمي من دفئ الأرض و تبتسم شفتاي و أشم الياسمين و ارى جماله و اتذكر عيناك التي تبرق بزنابق الماء و احس بمفتاح بين كفاي و احتفظ بالرسائل، احتفظ بالذكريات، احتفظ بك بمكان لا يغرق، و أغلق الباب
لسخرية القدر و لصحتنا العقليه
لقد تركت المفتاح تحت نبتة بابك الخلفي..
فسأنتظر بعد كل شمس تنطفئ
Huda Dec 2020
و حين بدأت رحلة البحث على نفسي، وجدك راحلا
و حينما احلم في منامي ويقظتي أجدك راحلا
و حين اقبل عيناك و امسك وجهك بين كفاي، أجدك راحلا
و حين تمر رجفة بعظامي وارى نفسي تبحث خارج جسدي، اجدك راحلا
و حين تهدأ العاصفه و يصمت الوجود و تشرق شمسي محبة، أجدك راحلا
و حين أجد نفسي.. أجدك راحلاً
و نفسي لا تشتهي نفساً ان تفخر الا ذاك الراحلَ

There will always be a knock
there's always a new stranger to knock
for a conversation
for a glimpse of your brain
for comfort
for a safe place
for reassurance
for a deal
for your heart maybe..?
but not all of them is love sober
some will knock to find what they've lost
for someone like her
for an exchange of fake feelings
for fake druken words
for a touch of lust
for a distraction of their mind with yours
for visions your brain might not have the colors of
for one stroke on your strings, of a song they've played before but is completely new to you.. you might be intrigued, but you shouldn't be
I've been knocked
knocked at
knocked for
knocked out
but I never let just anyone in.. Or do I?
Once upon a new constellation in the sky, in a new side on the moon I've never seen, a new shade of black when staring directly into the sun, that has always been blue and purple..
I walk to the door to knock, and there you were already knocking.. I've been hearing these church bells for a year now, I've been feeling my heartbeat sing along to it, a different knock, a sober knock, a new knock that I couldn't resist opening the door for, hell I opened all the doors and all the windows for, I opened my heart, I kept my mind open, I was completely and utterly open and I sang along.
But I knew it was bad, I felt fear and fear and whole lotta fear, but nothing could stop me because you're here with me and you are singing along, you were singing along..
Where did I go wrong? I keep forgetting people can have a change of heart, they change their mind, everything changes in a short period of time and it makes my lungs so tight and my knees weak.. because it's never my change of heart. It's never me. I don't know what the **** is wrong with me but I know that it's time for me to knock on other doors.. because I am not accepting new visitors
I'm knocking on a door..
for love that I know doesn't exist
for reassurance
for sweet little lies that makes me smile
for the final exam of all the lessons I learned
Huda May 2015
I'm sitting here in a waiting room somewhere that feels far away from home, mom is sitting right next to me and she's making me nervous as ****. This is not some poem but I'm terrified because I don't know what to expect and its terrifying, but I do believe deep down inside that fear is a really good feeling, fear is probably the best sign you can have. I feel the stars bleeding disappointment,I hear the moon screaming silently for only me to hear, they know I'm crazy but they don't want it to be fixed, I apologize to the moon and stars for I need to make another true friends and it's about time to reveal my farewells, let's hope this doctor fixes me, let's hope I am crazy.
Huda Sep 2015
I felt everything and nothing all at once and thought this is it, hope, lots of hope.

I bet this is what a mother feels like when she holds her new baby born for the first time, or a struggling person leaving the doors of a rehab behind forever, or every kid seeing a rainbow after long rainy days

But this is happiness, not love
I've felt lots of happiness
Not a lot of love

Whispers in my head repeating what they said: There's nothing wrong with you, it's not your fault and you don't deserve this.
This is not what they call love.

I've had my definitions of love, for a movie or a song. For a mother or a sibling.
But this is not what they call love.

I'm breaking my brick wall and building it all over again but I'll make sure I'm doing it all by myself with no love's help

I'll add colors to my own skies
Black is not my color

I'll learn music and poetry
And plant new trees

This time, at least for once
I'll be there for me

Love has not yet proven its existence
Huda Feb 2018
I've reached a door after twenty-three years that I apparently can't walk into unless alone, as foolish as I always am.. I decided I'd never let go of my loved ones and lost that last piece of me behind that door and stayed here. Lost, confused as ****, loved but not like I should be loved, communicating when I don't even believe in the word or the magic of that action, but at least with my loved ones.. Eh?


Oh well, if any of you people are reading this behind the door, did I miss it? was it wrong that I quit it? I know it was a mistake, I knew it while I was walking the opposite direction from it as well. I said all the stupid things I'm supposed to say but only when it "felt right" well, nothing feels right. But at least I'm with my loved ones, yeah?


I lay in bed in mornings and for hours at midnight, I walk the roads to everything alone my heart can't stop feeling this sort of unbearable feeling and I think it's trying to tell me something that I still can't figure out or most probably in complete denial about, I eat the food I'm supposed to eat, I hydrate, I walk as much as I can, I stopped listening to blues and only listened to what made my heart race, I've watched my cat give birth to the most beautiful six kittens ever existed, I sit with my mother until she's out of talks, I take long therapeutic baths and treat myself right.. from time to time.. but my heart is still feeling the same way, almost nothing but that feeling, and relates to nothing but that unbearable feeling.  So.. I decided I'd try and talk to my loved ones, my darlings, my whole life which is the reason I chose them over myself and it goes like this:
My sister, my guardian angel: "You should go have a full checkup."
My best friend: "Same"
My loved one: "..."
And I knock the door
Once
Twice
But I stand here alone
hours in the morning, hours at night
roaming all the roads
staring at every wall built
the sky, clouds and the sun
alone
but thinking about my loved ones
Huda Mar 2020
Sometimes I wonder why I tend to almost always **** the muse in my head that gets me writing.
I've facing the sun, I've been facing the moon, I've been facing myself, and I tend to almost always avoid fear.
Fear is one of the strongest emotions I feel, and when I feel it it's real.. And by that I realize that I don't want to write because I know want to know the truth behind all the fear I hold in.
So here goes nothing.
Huda Jun 2015
Storms, crashed buildings, burning trees, fading colors, silent screams and losing hope all comes in one shape: quiet tears
In a room filled with people where comfort isn't an option, I try to hold back the storms and burnt trees and everything else but it cheats on me and fires away, yet no one notices.
I feel the broken glass and all the blood and screams from the storms
I burn
I burn
I burn
Everything that once grew with me burns
My favorite color now depresses me somehow
I live for the colorless, there I find it
The tears keep streaming down my face on the loudest form it can ever be, but still no one notices, I am happy no one notices but yet I'd be pleased to let all this disappear and I may need some help
But I lose hope
I have a sip of my tea and smile back
A smile full of anger and hatred
A smile full of disappointment
A hopeless smile
A fading smile
I remember how I once got hit to smile in a family picture, and I smile a real one.
Blue lips, red eyes remembering how I laugh hysterically when I'm depressed or after crying so hard and after losing breaths, and it all makes sense now. It all makes so much sense now.
Huda Feb 2018
I’ve realized that I’m being more vague by the day which leads to being more misunderstood but for the first time, I don’t try not to be..
I can go silent for days, but only if I wanted to.
I cannot confess what’s real
I cannot not think of you in every step of this
I can shush my brain and let go for once
I can pretend you never existed
I sleep away reality
I am using your methods
And now I know how it is
I still don’t understand where you come from
I can let go of a lover but I can never let go of a friend, I’m sorry I wasn’t yours as you were mine, I’m sorry I thought of you differently
Huda Nov 2019
أسوء من أخطائك البريئة
هو مواجهتي لك..
ثم  تكرارك لها..
مره..
مرتين..
.إلى نهاية السبعين عذر و بداية سذاجتي
أرى الهجر بكف و الصبر بكف..
وليلى يصرخ..
هجرٌ جميلٌ والله المستعان!
فلا جمال في الصبر الغبي.
و تُقْبل أفكاري الخبيثة في أول الصباح
و يمضي الصباح.. و تغرب الشمس..
و لا تمضي أفكاري ولا تغرب.
Huda Feb 2020
أعيش بزمان كنت أخافه، كنت ادعي الرب ان لا يأتي، أن لا أتذوق المر الذي تذوقته، أن لا
أُهزم أمام الحب، أن لا أضيع، أن لا أتوه، أن لا أتلعثم بكلمات، بحروف ليست حروفي
أقف أمام مرآتي و ارى وجهاً جديدا
وجها يرحب بآلام و يقبلها علما ان القادم أفضل
وجها يشرب المر كل صباح تهيئا
وجها هزم أمام خليلي لكن لا يخسر أمام حب النفس
وجها ضاع، تاه تلعثم تألم لكن تأقلم
وجها بشوش و صامت
الا بالمشاعر الصادقة
لا يسكت

— The End —
