3 Things

Only someone who truly loves you
understands 3 things from YOU:
-the pain behind your smile
-the love behind your anger and
-the reasons behind your silence ...!!!

Solo quien te quiere de verdad
comprende 3 cosas de TI:
-el dolor detras de tu sonrisa
-el amor detras de tu rabia y
-las razones detras de tu silencio...!!

DARK



Why so much sadness lurks under those beautiful eyes,
LIFT UP your eyes to heaven,
and see how DARK goes with your sorrow,
the SUN no longer shines,
TEARS falling from above
Look at the birds in the tree,
and their SINGING is not heard
only SILENCE and their bright colors is FADING
Tell me, beautiful girl how I can restore
the SHINE to your eyes,
to SMILE again,
so the SKY shine with
the SPLENDOR of the sun
and the BIRDS sing again ...!!!

Por que esconde tanta tristeza bajo esos ojos hermosos
alza tu mirada al cielo, y mira como se oscurece con tus pena
el sol ya no brilla, lagrimas caen desde arriba
Mira los pajaros en el arbol, ya su canto no se escucha
solo el silencio queda y sus brillantes colores se desvanece
Dime nina hermosa como devolver el brillo a tus ojos para
que vuelvan a sonreir, para que el cielo brille con el
esplendor del sol y los pajaros vuelvan a cantar...!!!

Gaza





There in Gaza ..
Where death is not as seasonally rain ..

Of overlooking you dry wells ..
Of empty oxygen tubes ..
Of the weeping windows  ..
Of lighthouses shattered ..
Of roads congested with blood ..
Of vibrant oppression walls ..
Of empty wardrobe ..
Of children's toys scattered ..

Death in Gaza is never sudden ..
But life there comes suddenly..!

Taboos




I stood in the hands of the interpreter of dreams
I told him: sir, I saw in a dream
I live as human beings
And from around me humans
And my voice in my mouth
In my hands a food
I walk and no one tracks the effects of my feet.
Then shouted me afraid:
This is taboos, my son
You ridiculed of the fate ..
O my son, sleep when you sleeps.

Every Morning





I feel ravished until the last pocket in my life..
I decreases gradually..
Such as treasury corrupt country..
I do not understand how I always open the faucet ethics...

And forget..

With every morning discovered drier else in my body..
I say: If the night came will unfold Blatant nudity..

The night comes to pierce me last hole..
Even extort food for the stars..!

How to Understand What a Relationship Means.


1
Know that Relationships can mean different things to different people. There are various types of relationships such as friend, work, dating & marriage, and family relationships. As we go through life, we will meet a variety of people and will build relationships with them, whether they be good or bad. The relationships we make with other people will be with us forever so it is greatly important that we make these relationships lasting and good.

2
Understand that good friend relationships are essential. A friend that you have a good relationship with is someone who is always there for you no matter what. A friend is someone who you can trust to tell anything to. A friend, most importantly, is someone who tells you the truth especially when you don’t want to hear it. They tell it to you even though it may hurt, because they care about you. That is what defines a real, true friend. Always do things in friendships, without expecting anything in return. This is what makes a great friendship. One needs to work on friendship continuously in order to keep it viable.

3
Learn about work relationships. These are the people who we see every day but are not necessarily close to. These relationships can be very important to your success. If you build good relationships with the people you work with or the people your in school with, it can only be asset to your success in your job or life. Great thing could come from it such a promotion, a raise, or just being liked by your coworkers. But to build a real relationship we shouldn’t have our focus entirely centered on just getting a promotion or raise and those things. Good relationships aren’t based on those types of things but rather on a inward desire to love others regardless of who they are or what authority they have over you.

4
Familiarise with dating & marriage relationships. These are some of the most common relationships that we encounter in our society. Whether it be dating or marriage, relationships like these sometimes cause controversy. In relationships like these, you have to keep your focus on the right things to make it work. If you love someone, try your best to win this person over. True love, even a great love does not come by very often.

5
Know about family relationships. These types of relationships are probably the most important of all whether it be with a father, mother, son, or daughter. Good relationships with your parents are very significant and can dramatically effect the life of the son or daughter. It is proven that a child that has grown up in a good relationship with their parents is more likely have a better attitude, better grades, and make better decisions. You can see how big of an effect a good parent/child relationship could have on the child’s life. It can potentially effect every part of a child’s life. This is not to say that a child that has grown up in a bad relationship with their parents can not be successful. But it tremendously helps if they do. A child that has grown up in a good relationship is close to their parents and therefore, a lot more likely to listen to what they have to say.

6
As you can see, relationship play a immensely important role in one’s life. So it is more important than ever to build good, long lasting relationships.

7
Look for quality in any relationship. Depth and sincerity should be most important. Have a few good, solid and rewarding relationships rather than focusing on too many people, who slip in and out of your life as and when they please.

How to Have a Healthy Relationship..?

1
Take responsibility for your own happiness. Save yourself several hours of arguing by remembering this one rule: it's not up to anyone else to make you happy. Sure, you can choose to be in a relationship with this person and derive joy and happiness from it, but it's not your partner's responsibility to dig you out of a pit every day. That's a tall order for anyone.
Change your mindset. Don't expect that being in a relationship will solve all your problems — it won't. Instead of expecting it to make you totally happy, choose it as something that contributes to your happiness in addition to other choices, such as hobbies, friends, family members, your job, and so on.
Recognize depression. If you find that you're consistently unhappy with almost everything in your life and you don't feel like it's something you can change yourself, seek professional help. Depression can severely strain a relationship, and unless your partner's a trained psychiatrist, you can't expect him or her to fix it.

2
Devote time to each other. Make spending time with your partner a priority, even if it's a little inconvenient at first. Relationships need shared experiences to grow, and you're demonstrating that nurturing yours is important to you.
Take up a hobby. Learning something new together can help you grow closer, as well as discovering a leisure activity you both enjoy. Try sports like tennis or basketball, learning a new language, cooking, crafting, or whatever else you've been wanting to try.
Find small ways to serve each other. Doing small acts of service for your partner shows that you're aware of what he or she needs, and you're willing to help out. It doesn't have to be an extravagant gesture: make dinner, take care of a small errand, or offer a foot rub at the end of the day. Don't make it a big deal, and don't automatically expect payback.

3
Develop better communication. Most people aren't born great communicators — it's something nearly everyone has to work at. The way you talk to your partner might seem small, but you do it several times a day and it does have an effect. Consider these fixes:
Don't use directive language. Try to keep phrases like "you should" or "you can't" out of your relationship. You and your partner are equals, and neither one of you should have the authority to direct the other.
Relay your expectations. If you expect your partner to do something, say it. Don't expect that he or she should read your mind, and don't rely on hints. Being clear about what you want gives your partner a fair shot at succeeding. (And keep the above point in mind: instead of "You should take the garbage out every day," say "I'd really like it if you took the garbage out every day.")
Say "please" and "thank you." You should be able to let loose around your partner, so there's no need to worry about having impeccable manners all the time. The exception to this is asking nicely and expressing gratitude when your partner does something — don't just assume he or she knows how you meant it.
Fight fair. Don't just let all these good communication skills go out the window during an argument. Try to get your point across in a loving, respectful way that doesn't seek to hurt your partner. If he or she insists on yelling or throwing insults, quietly request a calmer attitude.

4
Be realistic. Every relationship has disagreements and days when staying isn't the easiest choice. But what makes a relationship healthy is choosing to resolve those problems and push through the hard days, instead of just letting issues and resentment fester.
Review your expectations. Do you see your partner as a person, with both winning qualities and flaws, or as someone you expect to be perfect? If your expectations are so astronomical that no one could live up to them 100% of the time, you're setting up your relationship for failure.
Accept that conflict happens. If you expect to be in a long-term relationship, you're bound to have the occasional disagreement. Remember that one argument isn't the end of everything, and there's no person on earth that you'd agree with all the time.

5
Admit your mistakes. If you know you've done something to hurt your partner, intentionally or not, own up to it. Humble yourself and apologize sincerely, without making excuses or justifications like "I'm sorry you made me angry."
Commit to changing your behavior. If you notice yourself apologizing for the same mistake over and over, step it up a level. Tell your partner that you recognize this mistake keeps happening, and you want to train yourself to stop. Request help and ask for him or her to gently point it out to you when you're making this mistake again.

6
Practice forgiveness. Forgiveness is a decision of letting go of the past and focusing on the present. It's about taking control of your current situation.
Remember who forgiveness really benefits. Forgiving your partner absolves him or her, but it also frees you from carrying around anger and resentment. Don't view it as an entirely altruistic act — it's something you're doing for both of you.

7
Support each other. Being supportive means making your partner's happiness and well-being a priority, in ways big and small. Keep in mind that part of why you're together in the first place is that you're each other's biggest fans, so make sure you act like it. Try demonstrating your support in these ways:
Be a good listener. If your partner needs you to lend an ear, do it willingly. You don't always need to come up with a solution, just support.
Offer encouragement. If your partner is trying to make a positive change, start a new hobby, or undertake a difficult challenge, be his or her biggest cheerleader.
Provide a safe place. Allow your partner to be vulnerable in front of you without fear of judgment.

RAIN SONG


Your eyes are two palm tree forests in early light,
Or two balconies from which the moonlight recedes
When they smile, your eyes, the vines put forth their leaves,
And lights dance . . . like moons in a river
Rippled by the blade of an oar at break of day;
As if stars were throbbing in the depths of them . . .



And they drown in a mist of sorrow translucent
Like the sea stroked by the hand of nightfall;

The warmth of winter is in it, the shudder of autumn,
And death and birth, darkness and light;
A sobbing flares up to tremble in my soul
And a savage elation embracing the sky,
Frenzy of a child frightened by the moon.

It is as if archways of mist drank the clouds

And drop by drop dissolved in the rain . . .

As if children snickered in the vineyard bowers,


The song of the rain

Rippled the silence of birds in the trees . . .

Drop, drop, the rain

Drip



Badr Shakir al-Sayyab 

Ashes


Don't you feel we have lost so much
that our " great " love is now only words ,
that there's no more yearning , no urgency,
no real joy in our hearts, and when we meet
no wonder in our eyes?



Don't you feel our encounters are frozen ,
our kisses cold,
that we've lost the fervor of contact
and now merely exchange polite talk ?
Or we forget to meet at all
and tell false excuses . . .
***
Don't you feel that our brief hurried letters
lack feeling and spirit,
contain no whispers or dreams of love ,
that our responses are slow and burdened . . .
***
Don't you feel a world has tumbled down
and another arisen ?
That our end will be bitter and frightening
because the end not fall on us suddenly
but came from within

Samih Al-Qasim 

To Two Unknown Eyes


Mistress...
Should these enamored words chance to meet your eyes
Or pass between your lips
The forgive me; it was your eyes
In whose shade one evening I leaned resting
And snatched brief slumber
In their repose I caressed the stars and moon
I wove a boat of fancy out of petals
And laid down my tired soul
Gave to drink my thirsty lip
Quenched my eye's desire.



Mistress...
When we met by chance as strangers meet
My sorrow too was walking on the road
Bare, unveiled
With heavy tread
You were my sorrow.
Sadness and loss
Silence and regret
Were embracing a poet consumed by struggle.
For poetry, mistress, is a stranger in my land
Killed by emptiness and void
My spirit trembled saw you
I felt suddenly as if a dagger delved into my blood
Cleanse my heart, my mouth
Prostrated me with soiled brow and supplicating hands
In the shade of your sweet eyes.
***
Mistress...
If suddenly we meet
If my eyes see those your eyes
High-set, green, drowned in mist and rain
If on the road by another chance we meet
And what is chance but fate?
Then would I kiss the road, kiss it twice.

Muhammad al-Fayturi
