“قال يحاصرني واقع لا أجيد قراءته

قلت دوّن إذن، ذكرياتك عن نجمة بعُدت

وغد يتلكأ، واسأل خيالك: هل

كان يعلم أن طريقك هذا طويل؟

فقال: ولكنني لا أجيد الكتابة يا صاحبي!

فسألت: كذبت علينا إذاً؟

فأجاب: على الحلم أن يرشد الحالمين

كما الوحي /

ثم تنهد: خذ بيدي أيها المستحيل!

وغاب كما تتمنى الأساطير /

لم ينتصر ليموت، ولم ينكسر ليعيش

فخذ بيدينا معاً، أيها المستحيل !


لا، لست وحدك. نصف كأسك فارغ
والشمس تملأ نصفها الثاني ...”
― محمود درويش

And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”
― Simone de Beauvoir
