Reflections

Me: Naked in your eyes i crawl in my shell..
pretending and hiding my cries is impossible..so i start to dwell...
fighting away my demons in your own beautiful words..
i see what i fear and hate all this hurt
pain and sorrow consumes my core
for sanity and salvation..for your words i roar!


Rania El Embaby: and yet again the pain never ends
it dwells, it rips our hearts and still we pretend
our first trial to smile is a failure we lust
and once we get higher, our wings rust
let it be that we keep our words inside
yet your eyes will always stagger into mine
leaving no space between truth and lies
to you my faith will never be a surprise


Me: In precious denial we drown too deep
From senseless hurt we cry and weep
Surrendering helplessly to dreaded pain
We spin, we flutter and fall in vain
Questioning our strength to survive
We breathe darkness, though for sanity we strive
But in mere words we find our salvation
In peaceful numbness we express our creations..


Rania El Embaby: Ever really wondered what it would be like?
to escape darkness and live in light
yet having to listen to their lies
yearning for truth that will never arise
Ahead is our destiny, together we withhold
in states of insanity our breathes will be on hold
In shadows of profanity a truth will never be told
slipping into clarity is hope we try to own
our souls seeking remedy are still alone
A curse that will never set us free
we're eager for a world we call home


Me: Yet our bleeding hearts whisper silently for a haven
Lost and aimless, pleading for someone to save them
Our crumbling spirits barely holding on
To our own demons we yearn to return
As anything is brighter than this hollow vanity
This world is too cruel, too shallow. Its pure insanity!
Abandoned and reckless we doubt everything there is
Massacres, Holocausts, blood and tears...
This ugly world you should certainly fear
Numb and frightened we caress our mourning souls
For a better tomorrow we pray and howl
