Birthday.
Some people celebrate
Their birthday
Each year on the same day
They hibernate a whole year
They live far away
Having nothing to say.
They wake up once a year
Is that fair?
What is a birthday party
If your yesterday was so *****.
We celebrate the day we were born
The truth is that for many years
We have been torn
What's a birthday
If your today is worse than yesterday.
What's a birthday
If you look back
One day
To realize that you have blown
All candles
Leaving no candle for a dark day.

Souvenirs
Today is
Yesterday's souvenirs.
Tomorrow is
Today's souvenirs.
We are nothing but souvenirs.
I wrote this  poem because I have just received an email from a student I taught 26 years ago. He attached a photo of me when I was in my early 20's.when I saw it, I couldn't cease crying. I am a souvenir and whatever I do now, I can't be the image he sent.

A poet
A poet is an ocean of thoughts
The more he feels
The better he writes.
A poet's pen is a sword
Deriving its power
From our lord.

Today.
Today
Some of them hate you.
The day you leave forever
They will love you
Even those who don't know you.
Will mourn you.
Show your love now
Without asking me how.
Love them all
That is my love call.
If you don't love me soon
Try to fetch a place in the moon.

Your Perfume
I was walking late by night
Wandering left and right
When I heard a song from the sky
Making my heart fly
So high
I looked up
Searching for the site
Beautiful voice lightening
That dark sky
I turned back
Fantastic luck!
I smelt your perfume
In harmony
With that cacophony
I felt pulled out by the earth
And a bit more by the sky.
breathing your perfume
Helped me
Fly up with my mind
Your perfume is like a wind
Drifting me up to where you are.
Looking at the sea waves from above
Makes me fly like a dove
Come back soon
A voice from the sea
I am not up there
can't you see?
Your smell covered the sea
Making ****** waves
Look Like a bee
Are you here?
A voice from the sea bottom
Yes dear.
Looking up again
For whom the stars shine
For our souls
You are forever mine.
Dead or alive
Our souls are here and there
To survive
They thought you died
For that reason they cried.
Our love is eternal
I smell your presence
That's my own evidence.

Fertile land
My heart is a fertile land
Whatever you plant
Will grow up till the end
If you plant love
You smell only love
I f you plant hatred
Don't worry, one day you will be
Whether frustrated or castrated
My heart is a judge
Having no grudge
You get what you plant
I dance on that holy and fertile land
Our hearts will melt together
That's what I have meant.

What is love?
Love is to  love
           and be loved.
A one side love
            Is a shame
  If not a crime
          A heart that doesn't love            
Is like a dead dove
             Still maintaining its feathers
  But useless for fly
A heart that doesn't share emotions
              Is a dead heart

Deep heart
My heart is deeper than the sea
Plenty of secrets inside
That no one can see
My heart is a world of love
The deeper you get
The warmer you feel
My heart has no exit door
He who gets there
Will never die
You will live forever
Without saying goodbye.

Sometimes
Sometimes
Tears roll out your heart
Hiding your scars
They envy you for that smile
A smile that no one understands
You sing and dance
You sing a song
Showing that you are strong.
You dance on a painful arena
You walk here and there
Don't want to talk
Pains have invaded your heart
Sometimes
You cry alone
Looking at the mirror
What have I done?
Nothing
You cry at night
Looking for the light
A light to heal your bleeding heart.
Poor heart!
Sometimes
You dance out of pains
That's true
How many roosters dance on the ground
After being slaughtered
Out of pain
We might get insane.
Tears from the sky
are called rain.

A Poet's tongue
A poet's tongue is  like a flower
Thorny but beautiful.

Now
Now
I am neither
Yesterday
Nor
Tomorrow.
I am who
I am
Now!
Apr 2020 · 45
In my heart.
The day you left
Life  turned weird
Time became meaningless
Our Streets no longer shine
The day they knew
I fell in love with you
They tore your photo
They didn't know that
I have hidden it
In my heart.
What's life
If you are not here.
Who am I
If I can't see you dear.

Twilight
The sun shone brightly
On a cool summer day
The sun envied her inner light
They laid down by the bay
Just to see the majestic sight
The sun went down across the bay
And the lovers made sweet love
Till twilight.

Run away
Running away from his destiny
Taking a breath
Looking for an eternity
Afraid of life and its bitter faith
Carrying a heavy body.
Running to death
Yearning for a moment of security
Out of breath
Running away from his destiny
Throwing a sight
Need to know the sun and its light
The earth and its perpetual fight.
All lead to a the same site
Left is getting right
Fight becomes a human right
None of us will run away from
That gloomy night.
Apr 2020 · 40
Your love
Your love
made me discover that
The human body
hasn't been decoded yet.
How come many organs vibrate
Just hearing your name.
I no longer feel the same.
Your love is a healer
Not a heart killer.
People love with their hearts
And you make me
Love with all my body parts.
A woman's heart is an ocean of love. The deeper you dive, the better you feel.
Apr 2020 · 31
What is love?
What is love
If you don't sacrifice
What is sacrifice
If you haven't loved.
Love and be loved.
Once you love
The world is yours.

Life
Life is a dream
Full of lies and illusion
The day you wake up
You feel lost in this confusion.
Lost here and there
Looking for an exit
Nowhere
Trapped in a world of fear
Strong and powerful
Stuck at home
Having no power
No hope
But waiting for a savior.
Apr 2020 · 53
Doomsday
The day I met you
Was the beginning of the universe.
Today as you have left
It is my doomsday.
Apr 2020 · 38
Our dream
My dream is to dream
Of nothing
But our dream.
Being together
Day and night
Not hyperbole to worship each other.
I am the sun
You are the moon.
We are the world
We are not the only obdurate.
We are our dream
And this is our realm.
No  need to understand it.
Our dream is the truth
Yours is nothing but a film.
Wake up and be your own dream.

Decision.
Love has no final definition
My love is a decision
Not an admiration.

What is life?
The birth of death
The death of life.
Live and die
Going up to the sky.
They left
Without saying goodbye.
What is life?
What is death?
Young and adults
die out of breath.
Our world is a big lie
Before this threatening virus
All are expected to die.
Mar 2020 · 42
Your Eyes!
Your eyes are my prison
Looking at you
Makes me see other season
Neither spring nor winter
Your eyes are my own season
Worshipping them
With or without reason.

The poet's heart
An artist paints with his hand
While a poet writes with his heart.
An artist's brush lures your eyes
My poem revives your days.
The poet's heart is an ocean
Full of love and emotion.

Pray for the world.
Nature is the best school
Working against it
Makes you feel like a fool.
A virus capsized our life.
Killing dad and his wife.
Stuck at home
Having no power or tool.
Mother nature
Forgive us.
We cry our dears
Here and there
All stare
Love nature
Before our departure.
We lost control
All of us about to fall.
Mar 2020 · 43
United
Coronavirus united us
For centuries
Books and preachers
Divided us.
Each pretends to possess the truth
Which truth?
Show it today
Heal the world
All ran away
They told us
Be patient
We will go through
That's not true.
The end of the world
Believers  whispered
Shut it!
Scientists said
We are here
A vaccine is very near.
Love and spread peace.
Stop wars and hatred in the name
Of the unseen.
A scientist never urges a patient
To  hurt or ****.
How come
They trust a power that
Urges them to ****
Does he really feel?
United together
Our life will be much better.
Mar 2020 · 125
Today?
Today is another day.
Better than yesterday.
Today is tomorrow's past
Filled with dust.
Present time is an illusion
Covered with confusion.
Time is ruthless
Days become meaningless.
Be yourself
Seize your day
Forget about what they say.
A dead past
Makes  you
die fast.

Wake up
Life is a book
Each chapter has a different look.
Chapter one
Laughter and happiness
Served like a prince or princess
Loved by all
Watch out! He is going to fall
Hugged and kissed
Spoiled and blessed.
Chapter two
Sent to school carrying a wee tool
Lunch basket
Full of sweets and biscuits
That's cool
Go to bed
His father said
He started to cry
In his bed hiding his tears and sigh.
Wake up boy
His mother shouted
Don't play with that toy.
Chapter three
Happy birthday to you
You turned twenty
Set free
Enjoy your life with Betty
Chapter four
Getting married
Heavy burden to be carried
Work and feed
Rely on yourself
You are not a kid
Struggle with the unknown
So what if you are alone.
Spoiling your child
He doesn't mind.
Till he grows
Teaching him moral laws.
Chapter six
Getting retired
Going back home feeling tired.
You and Betty are alone again.
Sickness and fatigue
Chapter seven
Rest in Peace
Chapter eight
You started life with
Laughter and happiness
Ended it up with
Tears and sadness.
Look!
That's the end of the book.
Mar 2020 · 34
Your heart
Your heart is deeper than the oceans
Full of love and emotions.
Your heart is a shelter
Making me feel better and better
I idolize your heart
Day and night
I see nothing  in it like hate or fight
Your heart is my favorite gaol
Teaching me how to be a male.
A male ready to give and forgive
Not to cheat on and leave.
Plunging deeper in your heart
Makes me so smart.
To the one whom I love and let me love everyone on earth.

Our poets
The poet's eye
Is the only exact image of the world.
If you know how to read it
You will never die
He can see the unseen
And make your Dao so clean.
A poet's heart is so deep
They call for hatred
He never faltered
Calling for love
They call for war
He insists on loving more and more.
The poet's tongue is the truth
That helps you soothe
Wake up and say
My poets shine my day.
I was asked by a friend of mine to explain the term Dao. Well, the Dao or Tao as first used by the world sagacious man named Lao Tsu means the path or the road. I love his book "Tao te ching."

Dark Park
Taken away in the dark.
Faraway in a park.
Under the dark sky
Where no one could hear hi or bye.
Both alone
In  a  hushed tone
Bodies melt together
Drifted by love like a beautiful feather.
Eyes language is there
They show no care.
No word but right
Their love is the only light.
Feb 2020 · 78
A poet's mouth.
A word from a poet's mouth
Requires a sagacious mind.
Words are easy to say.
To get them correctly
Have you walked  my way?
Feb 2020 · 53
Love you
I
Love
You
Because
I
Have
Never
Seen you.
I
Have just
Felt you
In my heart
I love loving you.

My scars
My scars are not yet healed
As Years passed
I feel myself killed
Looking at the past
Makes me collapse so fast.
Tears won't even change
What was stolen
Today's scar  is yesterday's pain.
Feb 2020 · 41
My life
Life is a tragedy
Man is its melody
Make of your life a victory
And stop looking at their misery.
We live once
They die twice
Never regret being skint
Money and power
Won't make you a Saint.
Their power is fake
Our love is a world lake.

Dead nation
A nation that builds its future on
Its past is a dead nation.
Jan 2020 · 37
Hope
Never build a bridge of hope
On a desperate river.
Jan 2020 · 47
Morality
Love has no identity
Love and be loved
We are the fruit of love
Kindness is our morality.

The umbrella
It was raining heavily
Your umbrella was our shelter
We looked at each other
Speechless
Drops of rain
Were like a fuel
Making me insane
We stuck to each other
Love this melody
A melody of love
Played on the lyrics of the rain
Our heart were somehow
Drumming
Our eyes were flirting
She sighed saying
We are the world
You are my lord
We were drenched by rain
head to toe
What a wonderful show.
Making us above your law.

Love 2
A heart that doesn't love
Is a dead heart.
A man who knows how to love
Never dies.
Jan 2020 · 40
Universal love
Love
And be loved.
If you don't know how to love
Come and see
Only love helps you be
Life without love
Is like a desert yearning for the sea
A heart that loves
Is an eternal world.
Be the world
Love is our lord
Our lord hates your sword.
Jan 2020 · 61
Love
Love is easy to draw
Hard to show.
Jan 2020 · 84
Day and night
A fight between the day and the night
A war between the sun and the light
I am the light
You are the day
I make your day
Why don't you say?
The moon laughed and coughed
Stop abashing me
Can't you see?
Your world is lit
From head to feet
The sun screamed
Stop lying
I see you are dying
A heavy storm
In an enraged form
Filled the sky
The sun left without saying goodbye
The  moon vanished
Behind the sky
The storm shouted
Your war is nothing but a lie.
Jan 2020 · 75
Not blind
I was silent
But I was not blind.
A sagacious man
Knows how to be kind.
Jan 2020 · 33
Lost
Who am I?
In a world full of hypocrisy.
Jan 2020 · 35
Who am I?
We were born
Somehow torn
Given a name
Which was not the same
Baptised against your wishes
Losing your own wishes
We were born
Faraway from the norm
Taught to obey
And not to have a say
We were theirs
Later heirs
We carry their names
Lost in their maze.
We are the past
Which runs too fast
Who am I?
Nothing but a lie.
Jan 2020 · 33
Our future
Your past belongs to you
Our future is our treasure.
He who judges your past
Will have no place in your future

My temple
Your heart is my  temple of love
I worship it alone.
I wish I were a temple
And your heart is my idol.
Dec 2019 · 126
Love
Love and be loved
If you don't know how to love
I still have a space in my heart.
Love you all.
Dec 2019 · 87
Stop blaming.
They blamed me for
Loving you
They don't know that
My heart was your first prey
Our love is not a play.
The day I met you
I saw you with my heart
You were the one
I dreamt of
If you blame again
Get my heart
You will be so smart.
Love is feeling
That is all my darling.
