Analysis of My Names ' Secret
My Names ' Secret
By :
Assma Sakir El-Qasseme
Translated by :
Hassan Hegazy Hassan
***
Light has a resort on the eyelid of time
It penetrates the tunnels of my dim soul
Fighting me,
Waking what remains from ideas
from thoughts that settled in one of the angles
Of my memory
No time is left for me
to regain my dreams,
To gather the fragments of my shattered self
On the noise of words
The squeaking of winds is flowing me
under the wings of time
Accompanying the secret of my names
Sleeping on the tears of the clouds
Defacing what remains
from a hanged memory on the eyelids
of my fate.
