Love Is Not The Only Theme Poem by Wael Karameh

Your face is always in the middle of the scene
As if you are the only woman I have seen …
Where is the nature, where is my nation
Only through your existence, I find a relation…
You are the poetry, you are the reader
You are the pain, you are the healer…
Maybe I am just a sick creature
Full of complexes of a strange nature
For life can not only be summarized in one dream
And love can not be at any time the only theme…

Tonight… is the night of my inside revolution
I will break the old shell and find a great solution…
I will dive inside the future with the eye of variety
Taking the lessons of the past as a guiding reality
Live the moment with wisdom, with joy …
For Life is partly serious, mostly like a toy…
Tonight…
I will take my freedom from your hand
I will wisely love you …to a certain end …
Because… I will be drinking the wine of life
With all its charm and experience
From the dawn of consciousness
till the ultimate satiety of happiness…

Wael Karameh.
