The Black Rose

I contemplated the black rose in admiration
Out of the floral families it wasn’t typical
It steadily rested waiting for the sun confirmation
waiting patiently for the sun daily was original

But for the black rose it was never ordinary
The sun rays were its only inspiration

During heavy rainstorm, unlike other flowers
The black rose was strong & powerful
It kept an eye on the rainbow and its colors

“Thank you my creature the most bountiful “

After then, it looked for the formed dewdrops

They were on its corolla like the gems & jewels

Now most of daisies & flowers got wet & drained
They didn’t survive, they easily decided to surrender
But the black rose refused and was the only remained
The creator gratified it for its very long patience
And from now on, his gifts to it are going to squander

When The Soul Is Sober

When The Soul Is Sober ..

A purified soul wandered in darkness.
In a trial to perceive its mere reality.
It insisted in spite of its harshness.
It never believed in immortality.

The lonely soul started conveying.
But her body was still and stagnant.
It was neither joking n or dreaming.
It smelled like the flowers’ fragrant.

It was able to go through the walls.
Overcoming its all past parapets.
Not paying attention to mind calls.
She was dazzled by a palace exists.

It crawled on a very steep slope.
It found a sign which says “stop! “
“ Who are you? “ asked the guardian.
It stroke like a whip drives it dystopian.

It was a lash that restored its evocation.
Everything is clear, vagueness has gone.
Only one solution to the soul’s salvation.
Probably It was Escapism, it was to run.

She remembered her body and its funeral.
“Yes, I’m dead! “ she communed herself.
Now the image is complete, real and figural.
She’ s simply away from life fantasy and pelf.

With love : Esraa =) xx

{Never Reject The MIC.}

{Never Reject The MIC.}
September has just arrived & the new schooling year is knocking the doors. The majority of us detest it & I was one of those who used to, & actually everyone had his special reason for hating. Some –if not the most- for the Educational process, the teachers, or maybe the school itself! But for most of them, the thing that made them afford it was the people around, friends & the staff surrounding them was the only thing that made the year pass.
On contrary, that was my past reason for hating school as much! In my school, despite being famous for my results, I was the chameleon type of girl who  wasn’t categorized as the “ funny “ , “ nerd “ , “ silent “ or  “ intricate “ one. Whoever wanted to give me a nickname did. They primarily put self-opinions & appearances as judging scales without really getting to know me well or being built on actions. I had a notion that they only did this out of jealousy but then I stopped and asked myself a simple question “ Is it their problem or mine? “ I concluded that it was my own problem.
I don’t say go stuck to each group in order to prove your personality! Have a life! You don’t have to explain yourself to others anyway. But you can also impose your personality by simple situations. And that’s what matters after this big introduction :D !!
On a typical day of honor, in a hall full of honored students like me, their families, teachers & above all my sharp principal, I was asked to give a speech out loud! I was really afraid –not shy- & rejected the idea at first but I didn’t want them to add “ timid “ to their list of my qualities :D Now there was no way to reject as my computer teacher disturbed my train of thoughts by handling me the mic & announcing out loud ” Attention all, please.. Esraa is going to give us a word “. I had to live the bitter truth; I took a deep breath knowing that I was now in the limelight. Surprisingly, I found words floating on my mouth without moments of thought. Although I had lots to tell in that moment but I managed in order not to enter in gabble rather than explaining my ideas in brief & meaningful words. It was my first speech & it was somehow a GOOD ONE! What was noticeable about it was me proving myself, ideas & random thoughts in a sudden moment & attractive accent. (They said)
For my shock, I heard the ovations & immense whistles aloud, crowd voices praising me to the skies! This simple situation really marked on me & helped my personality being shaped & proven. I firstly thought it would be faced by sarcasm, silence, or nasty looks but I realized I was mistaken.
From that moment on, I feel my colleagues will look at me from a different angle, not the self-conceited & many other qualities they saw.
So it’s all about you, when you look at the mirror & see yourself ugly or untidy of course you won’t have the ability to change the reflection, but you’ll make a slight difference in the real you so that the reflection becomes better. Everything around us may have a solution if we just contemplated it once again J
So dear reader: Take your new schooling year as an experience & every situation you pass by as a guideline for your character, come out of the shell, express yourself, hazard your opinions & never miss a chance to hold the mic!

Only 1 Last Day

I sat thinking about what to write, trying to muster the genes of my brain as I really had no intention to write. But then, a random question stroke to my mind: " What if it was my last day in this cherish world? "

" What did I do in this life until this very moment that's worth mentioning? "

If I died, now .. exactly .. in the moment

Would my presence from my absence make a big difference?

Would it leave a gap in life?

Or did I live this life & I'll leave it as if I never even came to it?!

Have you ever tried asking yourself those questions? What was the answer then?

Indeed, that was the reality, - not of me - but of many others like me.

And here comes the question " Do I live for me, or live for others? "

" And what does the ME part include? My dreams & desires only? What if I achieved them but died, well .. Would they last? " --> They won't last either in real life or after being a ghost.

From this point, I decided to live a day as if it was the last & see whether it's a big deal or not.

But how can I start? Those are some tips I reached & you, dear Reader can add to them :

- Drawing a smile on someone's face

This is a very small thing yet of a great impact.

Smile is like the drug that activates & strengthens the immunity system. But not the immunity system against physical diseases. Nope, I mean the one against the EMOTIONAL ones. :)

Have you ever tried keeping a smile all a day along?

How does it feel? Great, huh? Have you contemplated it?

So why don't you try applying it on someone else..

You know, sometimes we might meet strangers who know nothing about our lives & we know nothing about theirs, but once you pass a smile it makes their day & makes yours as well.

Others we know for a life-time not knowing how to express our love to them either in sweet words or appreciable actions. We don't know how to confess that WE SIMPLY ADORE THEM ! <33

But the answer is so obvious: What ever you do will always pour in one outlet which is their HAPPINESS!

Drawing a smile on someone's face is a very low-prices job yet can cause priceless moments!

Try pouring the fragrant of the smile so that you can make vulnerable flowers thrive (:

The thing that turns them from fury to joy. That's it (:

- Sharing Love:

Have you ever wondered how many people truly love you?
How many people would stand praying over you while you're settled in your tomb?
Try to share love, with whoever you know, don't be afraid of love. You might be afraid & someone else is, as well.
You're not the one-man kind in your world & despite considering yourself strong enough to stand alone you'll always end up needing people..
People around you are the ones who create the moments & capture them. And what lasts in the end is the Moments not the days. They create transcendence, joy, pleasure,laughter even sorrow that gives life its bitter-sweet taste :)
Many other precious meanings that whatever you reached or achieved won't be in the same balance.
You know? In my point of view, those are the seconds that count, those are the moments to be mentioned in the book of your life, not the achievements and certificates :)
