I Hide Behind My Words Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Hiding behind my words is allowed Because if they are good, then They will be a pretty haven, but If hiding behind words That are any words, then It's like hiding behind rabbits, I hide behind my words Whenever I get scared From days, I look for a safe haven for me That protects me from days, My good words are My strong wall that I lean against it Whenever days press on me... I don't throw stones at others' houses Because my house is made of glass... My words will remain As long as they have in them Love and forgiveness otherwise They will vanish for ever without any return... My words are not like any words, but They are mixed with love and forgiveness At all times. __________________________________________________________________________________________I dedicate this poem to Raneem. _____________________________________________
