La pureté définitive
D’une jeunesse incompréhensible
La beauté des moments
Doux
La sécheresse des esprits
Est-cela la promesse des adultes?
Devenir esclave de nos travails
Abandonner notre esprit
Et se fixer sur notre corps
On nous a menti
C’est quoi cette vie pleine de problèmes
Pourquoi elle est si imprévisible?
Comment faut-il gérer notre vie?
Quelles sont les normes qu’on doit suivre?
Rien n’est sur
Tout est improbable
Illisible et incompréhensible
Puis-je revenir enfant ou c’est trop **** maintenant?
Marie-Lyne Feb 2020
Patience
Is what
We learn
Along the way
Marie-Lyne Jul 2019
We choose
Who we
Want to become

Absence

We don’t need validation
To be ourselves
Marie-Lyne Mar 2018
What you want
Isn't right for you
So why do you just change it?
Maybe it will work out this time
Marie-Lyne Jul 2018
Stop blaming
yourself for not living
Your life is fully
You should enjoy
your slow days
where nothing
happens
You should be
satisfied that you
are doing nothing

It’s okay if you got affected
By a celebrity’s
Sudden death
It’s okay if you lost
Your childhood hero
It’s okay to cry
To feel sad
To turn off the tv
To stop seeing his face
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
Become something for yourself
not for others
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
You should always
seek refuge in yourself
not in others
Marie-Lyne Jul 2018
I want you to see in yourself
the same potential
you see in others
Marie-Lyne Apr 2022
Get away
from anything
That makes
you suffer

I was born in a country
where you aren't respected for what you are
but for what you have, what you own.

Nobody taught us how to love
That’s why we express it differently
Marie-Lyne Jan 2019
Whatever
Kept
Souls
Attached
To each
Other
It
Certaintly
Wasn’t
Distance
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
What is love?
To act around someone
as if you're totally alone

What is hate?
To keep a distance
from people you used to love
Marie-Lyne Mar 2018
Ce que j'ai ressenti quand j'ai écouté ses chansons

True sorry
Sa musique t'envahit
Te coupe le souffle
Rien que des sentiments graves, étouffantes
Il te prend par la main
Et t'étrangle soudainement
Il te caresse dans ta gifle
Il est avec toi
et t'abandonne quand tu le désires le plus
Il est là
Sur des vibrations sonores hors norme
Ce qu'il fait t'exaspère
te rend malade
Il ment sans même rougir
L'improbable c'est lui
L'horizon , les jardins vivent dans
ses imaginations
mais il aime me montrer ses démons

Nomade Slang
Je me balade dans tes pensées
Je veille sur tes routines plates
Ton âme danse dans cet espace
Je te voix heureux mais effrayé de
ce monde et ne montrant que ta tristesse

Essentielles
La mer, le vent chaud
les gens qui passent
Tout est familier
Tu revoit ta jeunesse
A l'aise dans un coin
Ce que tu es ne te ressemble plus
Marie-Lyne Nov 2021
Snow is an ennemy
That you’ll learn
To conquer
Marie-Lyne Dec 2019
We'll become adults
when
we
accept
the timing
of the
universe
without
trying
to
understand it.
Marie-Lyne Dec 2017
What you keep inside
matters the most...
Marie-Lyne Nov 2018
Learn to leave
You're not stuck
You can move
Transformation is possible
Stability is not
a human feature
Motion is necessary
Marie-Lyne May 2021
Leave
Whatever
Makes you feel down
Leave what makes you feel stuck
Unwanted
Unworthy
Leave what glues you to the ground
Leave the dreams you have created in your own mind
Leave it behind
Focus on yourself
Discover your soul
And let go of unnecessary relationships
Marie-Lyne Jan 2019
Sometimes
People
Leave
Scars
Instead of
Memories
Marie-Lyne Jan 2018
When you left
I became whole again
And that was life weirdest paradox
Marie-Lyne Feb 2022
I need to use my mother tongue
Whenever I feel down
To express my feelings
To talk about what bothers me
Marie-Lyne Jan 2022
Museums
Remind us
That even dead people
Still get visits and attention.
Marie-Lyne Nov 2021
When family reunites
They are supposed to talk about their needs
What bothers them
What make them suffer
It’s not a spectacle
Where you only talk about the positive things
Just to show that you’re strong
Stop acting
It’s not a tv show
Marie-Lyne Jul 2018
you are enough
no matter who you are
how old are you
and how much you gain

Second chances
will make you feel better
or you’ll get destroyed forever

Imagine
life without
sacrifices
what a piece of heaven

belong to yourself
to your thoughts
to your piece of mind

I am not yours
even if sometimes
all i ever want is to be with you

Never underestimate
what happens to
people with a broken heart
Marie-Lyne Sep 2017
Nobody can make you feel unwanted nor sad
Because what you have felt this evening was sacred
Three souls playing, fighting, crying
As if I have witnessed a conversation of people
who understood how to make life a
living, a misery and a land where we could forget our differences
To become one in their little world of music
To witness magic
Endless shadows
To feel so happy
A sentiment of pure excstasy
To experience patience, rage , sadness in a second
Is  rare in our world
To experience pain, nostalgia and a piece of your
distant country
To close your eyes from all this madness
To see lights in Ouds
To witness a cozy litlle night filled with
nothing but candles
and people making you forget that your soul
is trapped into a body that constantly suffers
Our deepest selves have found a shelter
We have visited our loved ones
with our invisible wings
We've known what made us human
We've seen three persons merging
into one for the sake of music
We've seen them through moments of excstasy
but most of all hard and severe body movements
Giving life to a woodly instrument
Making the robotic and the technological a human for once
Marie-Lyne Jul 2022
Their music have the power to erase identities
For an hour and a half we forget where we come from
We are mesmerized by three souls dancing with their ouds
Their music make us feel nostalgic to places and people we will never visit again
We are in the presence of chaos, beautiful sunsets and wildfires emerging from a crescendo of melodies
Every person in the audience felt like they belong to this circle of life that they have created in their songs
You can understand them without words
You can enter their world of passion and feel alive, content and calm
Even your negative thoughts leave you
You are in the presence of performers who transformed your mundane reality into a majestic scenery that you can’t stop staring at!

let's go there where the road is hard
but you’re happy and that's enough
let's open up
let's be free
let us show our soul to the world
let's make things that eliminate  our tensions
let us write to express ourselves
let us run in the wild
let us contemplate nature
let us listen to the sound of the wind
let's go where nothing is usual
where everything is new
where we finally find ourselves
where we’re not shy
where we can say everything
and act as children
and talk like grownups
and think like our grandparents
let's talk about death , about life
about the conscience
about the human behaviour
about sexuality
about kids
about adults
let's sit on the floor
and read books
and listen to loud music
let's tell each other all our secrets
our childish fears
our simplest pleasures
about what makes us happy and sad
i want to take a walk around the world
to see the sun above me
and the sea behind me
let me stare at strange faces
and let me guess about what they’re thinking of
let me hide in a house in a forest
where no one knows me
and i don’t even know myself yet
let me take your hand
and we will face this together
nothing will stop us
and nothing will makes us sad
we have detached ourselves from worries and regrets
we have learned to be thankful
to always believe in a greater power
to know that our road is simple and complicated
to know that the truth is always hidden in the deepest seas
and that lies float at the bottom of the oceans
i want to listen to unknown songs
to read books that people never knew existed
to get to know someone who is talented but not famous
to visit houses
and see what they keep in their bedrooms
what is their vision of life
how they see themselves
i want memories that keep me alive
i want a world that understands
i want people to feel me
to know me
to get to know me
not because i’m special
but because simply i’m like the others
Marie-Lyne Jul 2021
Let there be love
Wherever you planted your regrets, sufferings and endless betrayals
Do not keep track of everything
But let go of all this weight
You can choose what you deserve
You are never stuck
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
Letting go
of everything
that stops me
from being free
Letting go
of what anchors me
to the ground
Letting go
of what strangles me
Yes, letting go
of the person
that I wasn't able
to give up on
for years
Marie-Lyne Nov 2021
If it takes time
It’s worth it
Marie-Lyne May 2021
There are places
People
Places
That make you feel alive
They remind you of your strength
They bring you back to a challenging life
A busy one
Where distraction
Is a must
Marie-Lyne Jul 2017
Life is great you know
It never fails to show you your strength
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
L’amitié ne se regrette jamais
mais l’amour toujours

L’espace qui reste de nos sentiments
se rétrécie chaque jour un cm de plus

Tu peux avoir tout
sauf une âme similaire à une personne que tu aimes

Ce qui nous fatigue
nous rend malade
sans remède sur
des terrases de maisons
d ’inconnues
Marie-Lyne Jun 2018
I made a home out of you
But you deserted me

If only years went by
Without disappointments
And giving away
Useless second chances

Screens
Always ruined
Relationships

To be able to speak
What's on your mind
Is impossible nowadays

I don't want a perfect ending
I just want to spend
A day with you
Where I can feel completetly safe
Marie-Lyne May 2018
It was his voice
That I miss the most
I hope this was mutual
Marie-Lyne Nov 2018
I am loosing interest in myself
In others
In the world surrounding me
I am lost
Not knowing what to feel
How to feel
And what can I do to stop feeling
Does missing someone
Makes us loose ourselves
Does missing someone
Crash us to the ground
Make us desperate
Unworthy
Tell me it’s okay to feel this way
Even if I don’t want to
If I even think this makes me weak
And at others times
I accept that it is perfectly normal
Lost human quality
Should I continue moving on
Even if I don’t feel like it
Can i take a pause
Because my mental health needs some rest
Marie-Lyne Mar 2020
You can’t change what happened
You can only try
To change your way of thinking
Marie-Lyne Mar 2018
To deal with loss
is deal with yourself
You have to accept things
that you can’t control
But feel sad it’s okay
Don’t act strong
that’s not the point
Loss means appreciating what you had with him
Loss is loving people more than before
Loss isn’t scary
But it’s hard
It will **** you at  first
You won’t believe it
But it will make stronger
by giving you a closer look to life
death is the only thing that brings closer to life, to reality
Let yourself miss the person
Cry when you talk about him
Express the little things that you remember the most about him
I love you
I miss you
And I wish I could see your smile once again
For it was my greatest blessing
Marie-Lyne Aug 2018
Loving you
meant
loving myself
Marie-Lyne Dec 2018
You can guess
how much a person loves you
by the amount of freedom
they give you
Marie-Lyne Dec 2017
Am I enough?
Or the world is too
demanding ?
We challenge ourselves everyday
But life is not a competition
I think we need to feel
grateful in a society that
is constantly trying to put
us down
We are not humans anymore
We should quit the jobs
that make us suffer
Have a roadtrip to
an unknown place
Sit on the grass
Look at the immense sky
It's not about how
much you've achieved
But more about what have
you learnt in order to
love yourself
and to accept your fragile soul
It's a long journey
But we'll get there someday
I promise
Marie-Lyne Jul 2018
Wanting something
and not receiving it
is madness
Marie-Lyne Aug 2018
It was an adoration of the body
the male body
It reminded me of statues
of desire
of a ****** gaze
and multiple pleasures
what an aesthetic way
to compare life
to water
the cycle of life
the maternal side of life
what a tragedy
Marie-Lyne Nov 2017
Mashrou’ Leila will lead the revolution
Songs made in my country never fought the system
They never expressed what the youth wanted
or how they really felt about themselves
But their songs make us dream to the Marrikh
They give us a connection to reality in Fasateen
They expressed what the society of spectacle is in only 3 minutes
We could think about our ex in Ala babu
We are able to remember our country in Lel watan
How we always live in a state of exile in **** El-Khandaq
Manipulations In a daily life in Taxi
Grief and tough love in Abdo
Evolution and infinite surrenders in Wa Nueid
The barriers of language and sexuality in Kalaam
The devastating stages of a separation in Bahr
The closeness of strangers in Habibi
They are The Doors of our generation
They made crowds go crazy just like The Rolling Stones
But at the same time they were pure and melancholic just like Jeff Buckley
Thank you for keeping us alive in dark days and heavy nights
Your music will always give us new and unfamiliar feelings

May
Why does my happiness
Always depend
On external
Components?
Marie-Lyne May 2020
Movies are meant to make us feel
alienated
sad
happy
suicidal
grateful
inspired
or simply remember
the people that we love
