Majdoleen (Maggie) Sukayri Poems

Tragedy is when a hero falls,

Not from fighting for his cause, but of old age
...

To speak ill of those who wronged you, is to speak ill of yourself,
Is to show poor manners. That's what I've been told
So you walk away, and you stay quiet.
You keep to yourself, is what I've learned.
...

In the ether, but still you live in me.
Constantly I see what our day would have been
We have a small and cozy home,
You're sitting here with me.
...

I sit here in the dark watching you
As you sleep away into the night
Color has slipped away quietly
Draining all your laughter away
...

Give me truth with no harshness
Grant me serenity with no deprivation
Show me honesty with no bluntness
Give me love without reminding me of heartache
...

In my land of dreams
I only came to witness sunsets
But now, after having heard sad good-byes
I witness my first sunrise
...

Tonight, blue circles surround the full moon.
My inspirations were supposed to come soon
But my words have run dry, and I sit hiding in my own cocoon
With no window to the outside,
...

Oh, how I wished to have been when titans walked the earth.
Witnessed the groveling of the earth in each step they took.
Like the saurus', the earth shaken by a smirk.
...

Pick and choose, those who enter your soul,
Pick and choose which doors to open!

Go out into the world,
...

I am a child.
I am every child.
I am the embodiment of all innocence.
I am loved by all.
...
