Khalid Mansour Saleh

It’s not the words that you say
It’s not how you say them
It the feelings you feel
They decide what you should do.
...

Without poetry there would be no love
no understanding, no deeper meaning.
Without poetry there would be no music
nothing to think back on, nothing to remind us.
...

Dream like you’ve never dreamt before
Because we are the young ones
Packed with hope and ambition
So pack your case and leave the station
...

We all know you want someone to share those lonely nights with.
We all know you want someone to hold and call yours.
We all know you want the small things that make a big difference.
We all know, that this is what every person wants.
...

This time, is a time for change
To clean the world of fighting and war
To allow us to celebrate love and friendship.
Allowing the body some time to cleanse and find right in life.
...

I never want to see your eyes water
I never want to see your mouth turn upside down
I never want to see you alone
I never want to see you hurt
...

So many choices so many thing to do
Thinking of my life just turns me into a deeper shade of blue
But then when I smile and I put on that mask
People don’t realise just to ask
...

Lazy nights and sunny days
Time passes in a haze
The sun and laughter all around
But all I hear is sound.
...

All these times I’ve had with you
The memories the things you do
The advice you gave me before you past
You were my boat my wheel my mast
...

Take a look outside your window
What do you see?
people? trees? Cars? houses?
All normal everyday things
...

Drawing the blood, watching it drip
The rich colour, like a satin sheet.
The warmth, the comfort, the blood.
Do I feel alive?
...

To my best friend for this I do write
She knows everything about me
And knows how to make things right
I’m nothing without her by my side.
...

My head is like a fresh spring day
Too many emotions, to express at the same time
The beauty of each one, forces the heart to betray
To keep these inside away from you is a murderous crime
...

I always believed that you’d grown as a person

the ever lasting growth of nature!
Never falters never stutters!
...

In the crevices of life

I creep and hide
...

Let my thoughts renounce

my body and mind are just empty shells
...

Take this emotion

Turn it into something real.
...

The sun sets in the west

yet rises in the east
...

These last words to you and I
I speak with love and affection
...
