Fragile! Poem

By Youssef Naciri

On a snowing evening she rose,

But I warmed her shades to doze;

So, her pride begun to grow,

As I rained long to know;

To this rose, I was one in her thorns

As flesh in her skin and Bones!

But as summer came by,

So long! Said as if to deny:

That snow is no fancy, but a lie!

****

So, she faced her threat,

As silence conquered her breath;

But then she broke the stroke!

And when she’s done she spoke:

That out of roughness comes death!

That out of loss lies her threat.

****

Fragile as if she’s tied!

She felt as deemed inside;

That fate ceased her last cackle;

That fear waters her empty bottle!

As bullets in a rifle.

****

And then she said….

Oh ‘mother’ take me aside!

Oh my gentle pride!

My heart was raped

By a wolf all naked.

****

Still, by time!

She’d be old to know,

That she went with the wrong flow;

As we took the same boat,

The Anchor left us in the desert;

I sold out my meat,

As if lost beneath her feet…!

But the liver of thoughts remains on its peak,

Long as the books of each season speak.
