“i don’t know what living a balanced life feels like
when i am sad
i don’t cry i pour
when i am happy
i don’t smile i glow
when i am angry
i don’t yell i burn
the good thing about
feeling in extremes
is when i love
i give them wings
but perhaps
that isn't
such a good thing
cause they always
tend to leave and
you should see me
when my heart is broken
i don't grieve
i shatter”

“أنتِ جميلة كوطن محرر
وأنا متعب كوطن محتل
أنتِ حزينة كمخذول يقاوم
وأنا مستنهض كحرب وشيكة
أنتِ مشتهاة كتوقف الغارة
وأنا مخلوع القلب كالباحث بين الأنقاض
أنتِ جسورة كطيار يتدرب
وأنا فخور كجدته
أنتِ ملهوفة كوالد المريض
وأنا هادىء كممرضة
أنتِ حنونة كالرذاذ
وأنا أحتاجك لأنمو
كلانا جامح كالانتقام
كلانا وديع كالعفو
أنت قوية كأعمدة المحكمة
وأنا دهش كمغبون
وكلما التقينا
تحدثنا بلا توقف، كمحامييْن
عن العالم”

“Matthias,” Nina said breathlessly, and then they were kissing again.
She was sweet as the first rain, lush as new meadows. His hands curled along her back, tracing her shape, the line of her spine, the emphatic flare of her hips.
“Matthias ,” she said more insistently, pulling away.
He opened his eyes, certain he’d made some horrible mistake. Nina was biting her lower lip—it was pink and swollen. But she was smiling, and her eyes sparkled. “Did I do something wrong?”
“Not at all, you glorious babink , but—”
Zoya cleared her throat. “I’m glad you two found a way to spend the time while you waited.”
