Analysis of The fugitive
The fugitive
By:
Assma Sakir El-Qasseme
Translated By :
Hassan Hegazy Hassan
(Egypt)
Running away
From me to me
Alone
Without me
Without them
In my soliloquy
Me talking to me
Gazing at the lines of my hand
Trying to read her news
To solve her mysteries
To clarify her secrets
Looking for a key
To my identity
A desire holding me tight
For me to know me
Arguing me
Either to convince
Or to convince my self
