Awakening

Samer Amin

 

 

 

 

 

From my dreams, you are created.

 

 

 

 

From the core of my weakness,

 

 

 

 

 you have built all your current strength and capabilities.

 

 

 

 

Because of my wishful thinking,

 

 

 

 

 you have built all your sandcastles on my seashore.

 

 

 

 

Because of the misery of my years, 

 

 

 

 

you have installed yourself as the queen of my purported prospective happiness.

 

 

 

 

Because of the naivety of my mindset, 

 

 

 

 

you have claimed the right to stipulate my ways of thinking, and how to interpret your imposed data.

 

 

 

 

Because of my intrinsic love for the warmth of your proximity,

 

 

 

 

 you have infused an addictive behavior into my heart towards your closeness.

 

 

 

 

Because of my ignorance of how a real love should look like,

 

 

 

 

 you have pretended to be the perfect model of genuine love and affection.

 

 

 

 

because of my stranding in the desert of this arid world,

 

 

 

 

 my vivid delusive imagination has depicted you as a fertile oasis amid this brutal desert.

 

 

 

 

because of my lifelong loneliness, you have seemed like a homeland,

 

 

 

 

 and a big house surrounded by leafy trees.

 

 

 

 

because of my bleak long journey amid the desolated paths,

 

 

 

 

 you have been acting like a reliable friend and a real supporter during tough times.

 

 

 

 

However, it is like everything in this world, nothing is perpetual.

 

 

 

 

Delusive dreams would go away immediately when we wake up.

 

 

 

 

At that moment, we can realize the true nature of our surroundings and ourselves.
