Homeland

Al-Watan is an endless story.
The homeland is a spiral staircase that paves the way to eternity.
Al-Watan, The Homeland.
It links your heart to the ground and leave it there, in The Watan.
For a second
I believed in an alternative.
Whenever I go to a major city I will find a piece and take it with me, to make a full heart that can help me breathe.
New York City,  san diego, Boston and D.C.
Exile is a contemporary living, I found.
No matter how it may sound convenient, it will always be foreign.
These pieces are fake and fragile.
They can’t stand the cold or the warmth of my Homeland.
For a second it all seemed to fit
Until it fell apart, and Al-Watan rose like a phoenix from the ashes.
