“COMING FORTH INTO THE LIGHT

I was born the day
I thought:
What is?
What was?
And
What if?

I was transformed the day
My ego shattered,
And all the superficial, material
Things that mattered
To me before,
Suddenly ceased
To matter.

I really came into being
The day I no longer cared about
What the world thought of me,
Only on my thoughts for
Changing the world.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

From time to time my heart is like some oak
Whose blood runs golden where a branch is torn.”

“I tried to cry, there were no tears
I tried to laugh, there was no scorn
I tried to run, there was no road
I tried to die, I was not born”
