Love can be boiled down to science
A solution of chemicals colliding to form feeling
Oxytocin, testosterone, endorphins
It’s something you can learn
But it’s not

No one can learn the way you smile
Without seeing it for themselves
No one can memorize the curves of your body  
Or how they feel under my touch
The fluttering in my chest when you laugh
Is not something that can be injected
Your lips against mine
Not something to be sold on dark streets

You’re fireworks exploding in my rib cage
Setting fire to my bloodstream like it were gasoline
And I have no regrets for that
And that’s not something
That can be formulated
Calculated
Or taught
By anyone other than you and me
Baby you're my drug

I'm sorry for leaving you alone
Be Patient..I won't be Gone long
Everyday that passes by
I pull out your picture..I look in your eyes
Cherish the memories that we share
They live in our hearts will always be there
Our love a chorus to our favorite song
My crying heart sings when you are Gone..

it's the way
you look
at me
that ignites
a fire
so intense
it could burn
an entire
empire

҉

One day,
I will tire of waiting for you
to love me ~

You will lean back
and fall
finding I am not there to support you

You will turn around
and see the nothingness I have become
having given my all to you

Forgive Me.

Catching Up

If you are in a hurry,
go ahead and don't
bother to wait for me.
My life still needs me.

Some untold stories,
an unsung song,
an incomplete conversation,
an unread book.
Some bridges to build
some to burn,
wounds to heal
fences to mend
relations to tend...

In my hurry
to catch up with you,
I breathlessly ran and
I left behind
so many moments,
breathtaking moments.
Let me catch up  
with them now,

I'll catch up
wtth you later...

You have a universe
All to yourself
You are a God,
It begins and ends
With you.
You decide
If love
and
cruelty exist

You are immortal
Infallible
And gorgeous
Move like a dancer
As you
Float through
The space
Between you
and
The world

The stars are
In your eyes
Galaxies expanding
Beautiful madness
In your head
We all have
Black holes
That **** in
and
devour us.
Tried something different with this one.

I sit here mama,
and i wait and i wait and think
thinking of the next days that come
weather they'll be good or just full of
greater mistakes
and as i inhale this cancer into my lungs
i question how i am still breathing
i swear to myself and i swear to others that
i am fine and that i am better but i still break
these endless rules like an inconsiderate
slump
i dont know where i am leading my life
but as the days go on i leave the
ones i love
questioning if i am worth
the wait
i dont know what im suppose to
expect from this life i
live but honestly,
this life im livin isnt lookin so
great

She said: My Love .. You will forget me
وتنسى أنني يوما
And you will forget that I, one day,
وهبتك نبض وجداني
Have granted you my heart  
وتعشق موجة أخرى
And you will adore another wave
وتهجر دفء شطآني
And you will leave my beaches warmth
وتجلس مثلما كنا
And you will sit, as we used to
لتسمع بعض ألحاني
To listen to some of my tones
ولا تعنيك أحزاني
And you will not care for my sorrows
ويسقط كالمنى اسمي
And my name will fall as hope
وسوف يتوه عنواني
And my address will get lost
ترى.. ستقول يا عمري
So, my Love, will you say
بأنك كنت تهواني؟!
That you (once) loved me!?
* * *
فقلت: هواك إيماني
So, I said: Your love is my faith
ومغفرتي.. وعصياني
My forgiveness and my disobedience  
أتيتك والمنى عندي
I met you with hope
بقايا بين أحضاني
Remaining in my arms  
ربيع مات طائره
Like spring without a bird.
على أنقاض بستان
On the ruins of a garden,
رياح الحزن تعصرني
The winds of sadness squeeze me
وتسخر بين وجداني
And laugh in my chest.
أحبك واحة هدأت
I Love You .. like an oasis  
عليها كل أحزاني
On which all my sorrows have calmed down
أحبك نسمة تروي
I Love You, like an aura that tells
لصمت الناس.. ألحاني
My songs to people’s silence
أحبك نشوة تسري
I Love You ..  like ecstasy that runs
وتشعل نار بركاني
And fires my volcano.  
أحبك أنت يا أملا
I Love You .. you, Hope
كضوء الصبح يلقاني
That like morning light meets me.
أمات الحب عشاقا
Love has killed many lovers,  
وحبك أنت أحياني
And your love has given life to me.
ولو خيرت في وطن
And if I were to choose a home,
لقلت هواك أوطاني
I would say; my home is your Love.
ولو أنساك يا عمري
And if I were to forget you,
حنايا القلب.. تنساني
My heart would forget me.
إذا ما ضعت في درب
If I lost my way,
ففي عينيك.. عنواني
I would live .. in your eyes.
