Merry-Go-Round
Remember that feeling on the merry-go-round? You can’t focus, Can’t look straight, and all you feel is a constant misplacement. That’s how my brain feels like. Like an endless merry-go-round ride, with bullies that won’t let you off the damn thing. It’s silly to think of it that way, but I like to simplify things…

Possession
Do you know what it’s like to be possessed? To have no control over your brain, body and muscles? To have no idea what tomorrow brings? No, you don’t. I do. I know what it’s like to be possessed. It’s no demon when described, but it’s the same feeling of horror. I wake up in…

Rear-view Mirror
It’s one of those days Where you take a peek at the rear-view mirror One of those pointless days Where you can hear the pure giggles of a happy little girl Where’s that innocent little girl? I can’t seem to find her I can’t find anyone, actually. When did I get on this highway? Last…

I Don’t Know
I spot a girl through the window, and go to say hello. Hello; what are you doing? “I don’t know” Who are you waiting for? “I don’t know..” Well, what do you know? As tears build in her eyes, she says once more; “I don’t know!” I reach to touch her, comfort her.. But my fingers…

Moments
Some things in life, define you. Whether it be how you were raised, the fact that you don’t put sugar in your green tea, or that your favorite color’s red. These little things can turn you, into you. But it’s not those things that really define you. So, what does? It’s a lovely little thing…

Me & My Abaya
It’s me & my abaya today, all day, everyday. It’s me & my abaya, lurking the streets day by day. It’s me & my abaya, strolling to the bookstore. It’s me & my abaya, shopping, being a bore. My one and only companion, like a shield it protects. My one and only part, that covers…

Trust Issues
When growing up, you’re not aware of the things reality teaches you. You subconsciously learn things, through the people around you. Through the people you grew-up around. I, for one, learned that the closest people are capable of truly hurting you. So, I lived through that knowledge, and set a line of trust between me…

You Won’t Let Go
How am I supposed to move on, when you come and go like that? How am I supposed to recover, when you leave a trace at every visit? You come unannounced, and bring numbness along.. You make it hard to move forward, hard to breathe, to sing a joyful song. Bruises leave scars, supposedly attempting…

How Are We Defined?
It takes a while to get to know yourself; and through that while, change is inevitable. You could go from a spoiled little kid, to a responsible adult without even feeling it. Time flies, and you’re too busy wanting to grow-up. You crave it, and think it’s gonna be spectacular! Then, reality hits you. And…

The Waiting Process..
It’s in every human’s life-story to wait. Wait? For what? For an answer you want. For a reason you need. For a sign you crave. & maybe for an ice-cream scoop. I don’t really mind waiting for an ice-cream scoop, but it’s those other things you wait for. They’re making seconds feel like hours. Days…

The Brain or the Heart?
I don’t think I’m only speaking for myself when I say: I’m always thinking “What if?” There are many times in life when you end up thinking about what could have, would have happened, if you’d done something differently. You think about, and analyze every little mistake and situation, wondering how you didn’t see the…

Yourself, Your Mirror.
Nothing is sadder than watching all these people wearing masks. Why? Why is it so hard to be yourself? Oh wait, I know! Because of the other half of the population that thinks they’re the judges of America’s Got Talent. Let me rephrase that; ‘Arabs Got Lagafa’. I’ve been through so many phases as a…

Eat Tbn, be Happy.
As most people in Saudi Arabia probably know; “eat tbn” is an expression used on a daily basis, to either show disinterest in something, because you became frustrated about something, or even just because you’re too lazy to give a solution. If I ask you to try and remember how many times that phrase was…

The World is my Oyster ♥
What’s life when you set boundaries to it? What’s life when you plan every little aspect of it, and leave absolutely no room for the slightest bit of surprise, or moment of serendipity? It’s not supposed to be like that. I’ve planned out most of my life, and I have literally 100 notebooks full of…
