Without pleasure
Without feeling dazzled, at the end of this day,
its last hour is over and I’m still missing
The rising sun and the companionship of insects,
and aquatic weed and offspring .
Without blame
Without muttering
Without feeling pity for the dead and estranged

Without light
I would stand with my fortune
In a dark corner
Hey you; dark rusty edged lake
Our hollow faces will submerge in our tears
Until we float on the surface!
Amer Alttyeb
