Sacrifice Poem by Ala' Elouri

They saw you in my eyes
When I heard your name
And began to cry
They heard my heart beats beat
And my smile fade as I heard your name.
They saw that I truly loved you
And how insane this love has gotten you
They have noticed what no one ever noticed
All this time; all those from before
Were nothing but a unmeaningful joke
They saw what no one had ever seen
You are here, always been here, inside of me.
I wonder if you remember my smile
Or the way we would chat all night
I wonder if you think of me like how this mind never stops thinking of you
I wonder don't blame me...
I truly love you.
Don't blame me for the tears in these eyes
Or that I think about you hopeful every single night.
Don't oh please don't
My love for you forces me to call your name in my dreams
To sing a song about my grief
To write a poem like its midnight eve
My love to you makes me do things I never would do
Like look for you from in between all that crowd
Love does things you can't control
Love can kill
But my love to you will not die.
My love to you will grow as I am alive.
Think of me and smile
Think of me and dream
About us and our future life.
Think of us and achieve...
for me;
If you really want to grant me a new life
