I’m constantly on this search  for the essence of who I am.  Sometimes, it finds me  and I can feel its presence.  But if I try to grasp it,  it slips away.  If I try to separate it  from the rest, it escapes.  So elusive.  Like the birth of a soul  with no one to receive it,  no shape to define it.  Spilling everywhere,  touching everything.  Free.

Can you ever trust

that you’re safe

in these dark roads of life?

If you open

your heart and

welcome the night,

you’ll see that darkness

is just a new place

to shine your own light.

“I am a different person to different people. Annoying to one. Talented to another. Quiet to a few. Unknown to a lot. But who am I, to me?”

— Unknown

How are you toxic? I think it’s healthy to examine our own behavior before we start putting labels on others and have the willingness to change it once we recognize it.

Innocent Despair

by Jadal Al-Qasem

When separate from you my blood will ache. An unknown part of me will ache and I’ll try to kill it. Or grab it. The cell that misses you will throb in me, and I won’t be able to spot it, it changes position often, drags out the game, hurts my senses. My eyesight will worsen, my auditory range will dwindle, and my nose, a hunting dog’s, will search for your smell. Whenever air touches my skin, a fiend will pierce my body and flee. My memory will hurt and eat my head, and my head will vanish but not die. My ache will regenerate my head. I’ll grow sad, an invisible feeling, a ruin, an infinite overflow of dread. And the angry universe will collect itself in a corner of my life to ask me: What have you done with the scale of love? How did you waste openness on detail? The answer will hurt me as will silence. Burning, I’ll go to my death and demand my right to a nap.
