Garbage .... A Short Story

So he left, and she's left all alone
She bumps and bounces
Turning in vicious circles
She's free, she thinks
Free in a trap designed by her own mind
Little did she know
That snakes are sometimes poisonous
She pretends to be careful
She thinks she's got it all figured out
He knew her worth, and she knew
No one else would know her worth
She reduces herself
Loses whatever is left of respect
Slowly
Snakes surround her
Turning their bodies around hers
She starts to feel uneasy, but it's too late
The poison spreads



And before she knows it
She's back to where he picked her up
A sorry excuse of a life.
Garbage.




And only trash belongs in the garbage.

Hey Stranger!

Hey Stranger!
Fellow ranger
Hey stranger!
Life changer
Hey stranger!
We're in danger

Hey stranger!
Take me with you
Let me do the things you want me to

Hey stranger!
You interest me
Hey stranger!
Similarly
Hey stranger!
Why so cranky?


Hey stranger!
Take me with you
Let me do the things you want me to


Hey stranger!
Love me not
Hey stranger!
I change a lot
Hey stranger!
You hit jackpot!


Hey stranger!
Take me with you
Let me do the things you want me to

The 18th

"IT's the last time," he says, "None again, I promise"

she takes a deep breath as she remembers, and writes;

But I know that
No one would ever do
What he did for me
But I know that
No one would ever go
As far as he did
No lips would ever smile
at me like his did



No hands would ever touch me
As sincere as his
My lips would never know
better than his kiss

A child within a man
The strongest embrace
A firm heart that can
Float in a subliminal pace
Always a random plan
To swim into space



Maybe I should run away
It's too hard a game
For a dreamer like me to play
Will I look back?
Wish back?
Linger?
For this day


She takes another deep breath, turns on her side and sleeps in peace.

Always with me, Always with you

And I turn my back again
At the things I had back then
I walk, I talk, I kiss and caress
I think, I sink, and randomly obsess

Why you? why me?
Why now? not then?
Why not the days back when
white was white and black was black?

I sink
deep into myself
into feelings i never knew i was capable of having
and i realize
there are a lot more things i am suddenly craving

I sink
as i watch the sun dip itself into Cairo
as i listen to this bohemian city call for prayers
i take a sip of water
and nothing in the world feels better than this.



I am myself

Dear Cairo,
You should know by now that my love for you is inevitable, so please don't abuse it any further.

Dear Wael,

I will miss you, dear friend and brother.
You were always a great example of an honest and brave man.
You lived, and will keep living in my heart.
I love you, man.

May your soul rest in peace.
