Explosion Poem by Wael Karameh

As if I am burying my own body
And my soul is there watching…
How could I let you go?
How could you do so?
It seems that it is too late to ask
This is God’s will and it is a must to accept it fully…
And just try to hide whatever pain had left
In the deep valleys of my broken heart…
Behind a smile working for me as a protective mask…

Maybe I needed this explosion in my life
To rebuild myself in a better way…
To retake wisdom in all my acts
To live peacefully my day…
To conquer the weakness of your love
For my great feelings to take again the highway…
Maybe I needed this explosion
To wake up from an illusion
That you will never go away! ! !
