1999 - Part (1)

In 1999 a young walks into a cafe' in the old Egyptian superb of Heliopolis, everyone seems to be a little concerned and the intensity in the air matches the chill winter breathe on this day of the year. Undecided he grabs a chair and sits all by himself staring at the wall directing his long back to the chair he just sits there staring for a long time. The noisy sounds of the old city of Cairo doesn't seem to grab his interest that day. He just sits there uncaring to all the hustle taking place around him. The smell of shisha fills the place like a breathe of sadness that fills his soul as if he's going to order one. The small coffee shop boy comes near him waiting for the order, but the young man doesn't answer. "Tea, ya basha" and to make him leave his small piece of freedom he nods his head in anger.

The young man looks different than everyone around him yet everyone seems to be bothered by the news than to wonder about the sadness of that young man with long hair and tiring eyes sitting in the corner starring at the wall for 2 hours replacing a cup of tea with another one as long as he feels like shutting the noise outside out....

Dark days

Maybe,we enjoy our dark days.
Heartache before sunrise,
black stories before bed time,
endless sea of confusion in life.
Days keep flying through our eyes,
birds of hope keep our company.
The full moon loneliness remains a mystery.
Maybe,we enjoy our dark days,
or maybe ... it enjoys our company

Dear Sunday

Dear Sunday,
It's my first time to decide to write you a letter to tell you that i hate you, from all my heart and soul i tried to make you a feel good day but i failed. No matter how hard i try i spend you all with myself fighting and debating like the whole world is over our shoulders. My dear Sunday i keep on trying but i fail to be happy with you. It's like you're cursed or something with me being born with you. Together we started and every week you keep reminding me of things i don't want to remember , like why was i born and where am going and how am i doing in this thing you brought me into. I wish i could tell you that am tired of you and no matter how slowly you go or fast you could go , i wish one day i could find peace within you.
