By Ahmad Al-khatat

You see me,

you follow me

slow as the night

when it slaughters

the sunset above

the clear skies

Golden danger

that you hide

appears sad from your eyes

End me and allow

me to die above the

pool of my rusty blood

I don’t want to

be the soul

mirror with a mother tears
