There Are Times When I Need

There are times when I need to look long at my world
to piece together the fragments
and knit together the whole.
Times when I wish this unnameable thing
which is eating at the roots of the world never happened.
Wish I could push the hands of the mighty clock
back to the hours in the past
and navigate the earth back to its pristine days of purity.
The old books, some of them still unread, some half-read,
some I would never be able to read to the end.
Tonight, not the call of the sea; the sea being far away;
your cup of coffee is calling me back,
and that box of paintbrushes without the paint,
that elegant pen lying close by, just within my reach;
the perfume of the single rose unprotected
from the inclemency of the time;
I look long at my world hoping
some day I am going to put it all in piece.
Just poured the thoughts the way they came. I am feeling good now, dear friend Souheil
Your spirit needs recharging...
Make time to reconnect with
yourself...
Happy Saturday ☕️
