Dedication

To Mom and Dad. You've been my rock through every storm and my biggest cheerleaders through every triumph. This book is as much yours as it is mine, a reflection of love and support you've poured into me since day one.

And to my incredible friends. You've been my partners, my confidants, and my constant source of laughter and encouragement. This dedication is a small token of gratitude for all the times you've believed in me, even when I doubted myself.

Together you've shaped my journey, and I am endlessly grateful to each of you. Here's to family, here's to friendship, and here's to the incredible journey we've shared. Thank you for being the heartbeat of this book.

Preface

I am an Eritrean, who was born and raised in Saudi Arabia. I have always been an author since my very young age, but I never gathered my works in one place. So most of my old thingss are lost. Only five years ago I started saving them in my notes.

In this book I have selected some of them, which I think are worth sharing with the public. Most of my works below are written during my travel away from home. Each has a story behind it. Enjoy!

Good Morning

Good morning, evening or afternoon!

Birds're singing, and the sun covers the moon.

Dizzy days, drunken nights, blurred vision…

Days are about to be reshuffled soon.

Romantic

Peony

Talkin' to the oxygen: you're not needed!

She is my breath-taker and my air.

Am I still breathin'?

Who's my life's savior?

Starin' into her eyes is like

Travelin' through the skies.

Am I in paradise?

Gosh!!! Those are chandeliers!

Shining like melting ice.

I'm diving into winds of emotions!

Intensified feelings immersed in me…

Things around are in slow motion

As if her smile is invading the entire me.

I feel lost!

Am I dreaming or living the reality?

Angels do exist and she's the quality.

Her courtesy is her official nationality.

I smell peony's aroma in her personality.

Listen!

You know what's in my chest?

Confusion is being a guest!

My heart needs to rest.

Ohh!

She's got a smile which is the best.

For her bullets

Silence is my vest.

See!

I know that road is dangerous,

But my heart keeps driving my beats!

CRAZY!

The road looks beautiful, Lighting is gorgeous.

But it wasn't easy for me to drive it.

How can I not just fall for that precious?

Can I… Can I… Sigh…

I just can't.

I can't hold it back ‘coz I'm too ambitious.

I can't stop staring at that pretty peony.

It seems so perfect.

Well, that’s so suspicious…

Through the Road

Through the road

Fiction and reality do look alike.

Through the road

I floated on my fiction's lap.

Through the road

I danced with my dream.

Through the road

I found me in her smile.

Undeniable obsession with her eyes.

Twice!! What will happen if I met her thrice?

Instant Attention

Hello princess, I mean Queen!

Sorry, may I be just in between?

I mean… I just don't know what I mean!

Sorry! I don't mean to be… mean.

Look in my eyes for a sec!

Damn! This is a freak!

Can you see my words leak?

Can you hear my tears speak?

Come closer, be nicer!

Can you hear my heart’s whisper?

Is this the beginning of a new chapter?

Red Rose and White Jasmine

I gave her a red rose and she had a white jasmine.

Saw a creepy smile on the face of jealousy.

Imagined things that can't be simply imagined.
