Spoken
By Hend Al Hammadi
we’re people with problems
become one another’s distraction
with each other’s hope for attention
creates a significant form of attraction
knee over knee
while our minds travel seas
displacing every fear
from our bodies
toxins release
thoughts fly free
found within each other,
our happy
unlike every other time
this felt as if it was a crime
yet we ignored every abiding sign
despite it all, we gave each other peace of mind
