Whispers Between the lines

If I could walk through time again, A ghost upon a different stage, I'd see the faces then and when, And skip the next, blank, unseen page. I'd pass the stranger on the street, And turn away from every door, Lest their hello become defeat, And leave me wanting something more. For in their eyes, a future sleeps, A coming hurt, a heavy cost, A vow that's made, a wound that deeps, A love that's found and then is lost. So I'd retreat from every face, From every hand that reaches out, To keep my heart in its safe place, And quiet every lonely doubt. To stand alone, a hollow form, Untouched by joy or bitter strife, And build a shelter from the storm, By never truly living life... Nidal Sati

 It’s time to move on, Leave the past behind, Old love is fading, New horizons to find. New journeys to start, New love awaits, Though my heart is broken, Hope never hesitates... This pain will fade, Just a shadow in time, A chapter closed, A brighter climb.. Nidal Sati

Don’t ask for love it should arrive, Like morning light that warms the sky If whispered hearts don’t beat your name, No plea can set their soul to flame Don’t beg for loyalty to stay, It walks beside you or it strays away The silent vow, the steady hand, Speak louder than obedience demand Support that waits for you to call, Will never catch your deepest fall The ones who stand without request, Are truly those who love you best So let them go, the ones unsure, Because forced feelings never stay pure For what is real, you'll never chase It finds you first, it knows its place.. Nidal Sati

 Longing for you arrives   Uninvited,   Without reason,   Without mercy.   Memories bloom like wildflowers   Your face,   Your voice,   The echoes Of where we once sat.   My soul drifts   To every place  Your presence touched. Nidal Sati

 My friend,  I know exactly what it feels like   To look with  disappointment   At the same things you once looked at  with hope...   To sit in silence with a heart that once danced   At the sound of a name,   To feel the weight of dreams   You once carried like feathers.   It hurts but it’s human.   And sometimes, surviving it   Is the quietest kind of strength Nidal Sati

 I now bear the weight  Of all that hope my friends heard  In my voice when I first spoke about you.   And today, it's my heart that speaks to me with logic.   How heavy is the blow  Of disappointment  When it's your heart  Not your mind that reasons with you.   Some storms don’t come to disrupt life...   Some storms come to clear the path Nidal Sati

 If I could love you   Without falling to pieces,   I would have stayed.   I would have whispered your name   Into the quiet of every night   And kissed your sadness   Until it forgot how to stay. But love The kind I felt for you Wasn't soft.   It burned in my chest,   Clawed at my sleep,   And left me wondering   If I was loving you   Or slowly losing myself. I gave too much   Hoping you’d give just enough.   I held my breath   While you measured your silences.   I stayed still   While your moods moved like storms. I wanted to be your peace But I became your pause,   Your maybe,   Your “not now.” So I left,   Not because I stopped loving you But because I had to love myself   Before I disappeared completely. If I could love you   Without breaking,   You’d still be ...
