We Only Become Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Before our death, That is all that time which we live Before we pass away to the other world, We are only bubbles and we are only like Those mirages of any desert in the eyes of Other people... We are in great oblivion before We move into the other world... No one cares about you and about your life If you're a poet or you're anything else... That's our world! We are merely appearances in the people's eyes, but It depends... People only discover our greatness and our creativity After we pass away for ever... Before one's death no one knows anything about us Simply because people are like this... There are many examples about people who Passed away a long, long time ago... We become great and icons only after We leave this world immediately... When we are still in this world, No one cares about us at all... In-between distance separates our existence as Normal human beings and our departure as something else... Our world is unique in what It treats us before and after... We can not change that 'before' with that 'after' Simply because that's our world choice which is a must... We can not change our world's road map If it insists on it........... This is our world anytime... ______________________________________________________________________
