كلُّ الذِي عنْدي
كلامٌ لا يُقالْ”

سرى في عروقي
تلاشيت فيه
حملتُ إليه جميع الخطايا
وبين ذنوبي
تطهرتُ فيه”
― فاروق جويدة, لأني أحبك

“كان في عينيك شيئاً لا يخون”
― فاروق جويدة, لأني أحبك

“وحين افترقنا تمنيت سوقا يبيع السنين يعيد القلوب ويحيي الحنين
تمرد قلبي وقال انتهينا ودعنا من العشق والعاشقين
تمنيت سوقا يبيع السنين أبدل قلبي وعمري لديه
وألقاك يوما بقلب جديد
تمنيت لو عاد نهر الحياة يكسر فينا تلال الجليد
تمنيت قلبا قويا جسورا يجيء إليك بحلم عنيد
ولكن قلبي ماعاد قلبي
تغرب عنك
تغرب عني
وما عاد يعرف ماذا يريد

عشقت بعينيك نهرا صغيرا سري في عروقي
تلاشيت فيه
حملت إليه جميع الخطاياوبين ذنوبي تطهرت فيه
رأيتك صبحا وبيتا … وحلما
رأيتك كل الذي أشتهيه
تجاوزت عن سيئات الليالي
وسامحت فيك الزمان السفيه
فماذا تغير في مقلتيك
وأين الأمان علي شاطئيك
دماء صبانا علي راحتيك
وعمري وعمرك صمت عقيموأمسي و أمسك طفل يتيم
فكيف نعيد الزمان القديم ؟؟”
― فاروق جويدة, لأني أحبك

“I am not the first person you loved.
You are not the first person I looked at
with a mouthful of forevers. We
have both known loss like the sharp edges
of a knife. We have both lived with lips
more scar tissue than skin. Our love came
unannounced in the middle of the night.
Our love came when we’d given up
on asking love to come. I think
that has to be part
of its miracle.
This is how we heal.
I will kiss you like forgiveness. You
will hold me like I’m hope. Our arms
will bandage and we will press promises
between us like flowers in a book.
I will write sonnets to the salt of sweat
on your skin. I will write novels to the scar
of your nose. I will write a dictionary
of all the words I have used trying
to describe the way it feels to have finally,
finally found you.

And I will not be afraid
of your scars.

I know sometimes
it’s still hard to let me see you
in all your cracked perfection,
but please know:
whether it’s the days you burn
more brilliant than the sun
or the nights you collapse into my lap
your body broken into a thousand questions,
you are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
I will love you when you are a still day.
I will love you when you are a hurricane.”
― Clementine von Radics

I drank you like the cure when maybe

“I know
you and I
are not about poems or
other sentimental bullshit
but I have to tell you
even the way
you drink your coffee
knocks me the fuck out.”
― Clementine von Radics

“I. Those of us born by water are never afraid enough of drowning. Bruises used to trophy my knees from my death-defying tree climb jumps. Growing up, my backyard was a forest of blackberry bushes. I learned early nothing sweet will come to you unthorned.

II. At twelve your body becomes a currency. So Jenny and I sat down and cut up all our clothes into nothing. That year I failed math class but knew the exact number of calories in a carrot stick. I learned early being desired goes hand in hand with hunger.

III. The last time I tried to scream I felt my father climbing up through my throat and into my mouth.

IV. There is a certain kind of girl who reads Lolita at fourteen and finds religion. I painted my eyes black and sucked barroom cherries to red my tongue. There was a boy who promised Judas really did love Jesus. I learned early every kiss and betrayal are up for interpretation.

V. I think he must have conferenced with my nightmares on exactly how to hurt me.

VI. He never broke my heart. He only turned it into a compass that always points me back to him.”
― Clementine von Radics

“I will love you when you are a still day.
I will love you when you are a hurricane.”
― Clementine von Radics

“A long time ago, before I even met you,
someone replaced my chest with a broken record.
For years, it’s been stammering through
the same old tune.
I want you to know I’m trying.
I quit smoking. I’m doing yoga. And those days
I wake up wishing for death are getting fewer
and farther apart.

No, I’m not ok. But I haven’t been ok
since I was 11, maybe 12. I am still here though.
I’m still breathing. For me, sometimes, that
will have to be enough”
― Clementine von Radics

“I said, I love you
when I meant something much
more specific, I should have said,
Please don't leave me,
I'm afraid to sleep alone.”
― Clementine von Radics, Mouthful of Forevers

“When the poems don’t come, don’t open the vodka.”
― Clementine von Radics, Mouthful of Forevers
