Haneen

“Habibi. Hayati. Roohi.
My love, my life, my soul, the words meant, but their meanings went deeper than that.
Habibi was for friends and love that was real enough.
Hayati was when love became an all-encompassing thing. Deeper and deeper, until one became the others life.
Roohi was when a soul twined with its match and loved with the force of a thousand suns. When it slipped beneath the heart and tangled in the very fibres of an existence.”

“Her ring twinkled in the sunlight, blinding him even with his gaze pointedly down. Did you love him fair gazelle?”

“We're so quick to dismiss the sentiment as weak, but hearts beat for love, don't they? A life without purpose may be no life, but a life without love is nothing but an existence.”
