If You Deserve Poem by Wael Karameh

I don't know if you really deserve
all what is hidden in my pen of magic words for you...
all the seasons of pure passion
all the colored dreams like fashion...
I don't know if I can still believe
the reasons for which you decide to leave...
In running from love there are no excuses...
I am trying to forgive you for all your abuses...
But before you simply go and turn my page
remember that you should free yourself from your own cage...
the cage of hesitation, of contradiction, of strange illusion...
of pain that paralyzes you from your early age...
Go, Go and don't turn around
I will not call you...
I will not see you...
I will hang my broken feelings and put them in a cast...
and put on the fire in all of my past...
Go, Go and do not turn around...
I will do nothing...
I will just... cry... and observe...
perhaps this is really what I do deserve...
