Behind my mirror ..
Behind this mirror
in my room, is your hiding place
I know,
when I look to my eyes
I am really seeing you ..
I know the names of your tears
coz I shed them with you
and I know when you
are laughing and smiling
coz my lips are brimful too
Do you feel me
I am just few inches or nearer
Believe me I feel your warmth
in me when I yearn and
touch the coldness of this mirror
I know you hear me
when I talk to you .. all the time ..
and when I miss your voice
I put my ear and heed
and I can hear you .. talk and rhyme ..
And I can always write to you
When all I have to do
is fog the mirror
and draw a heart
that I can see you .. through ..
and I know .. down deep in my sole
- and my mirror knows it too-
that you love me
Coz I love you
a million times more ..

This ought to be lyrics of a love song that rocks the world.. flowing as sweet and as easy as a beautiful river.. I bet you didn’t change a word as it came out in one go… A masterpiece … Your best ever !
I will give you a big chunk of the revenue of the million CD this will make … And you are perfectly right .. Just few words here and there but 95 percent straight and raw on my ipad … Thank you dear ..
This is quite beautiful Tarek…. I think you are remembering the real you … and that makes my heart happy. The image is perfect — the soul work is touching… Thanks for sharing this– I a’m inspired…
“and I know deep in my sole and my mirror knows it too that you love me coz I love you a million times more”
~ I just love the entire poem… Sending you warm thoughts and hugs ~ keep consulting your mirror and writing my friend! ~RL
Your perspectives is interesting … But I will keep the magic and mystery … Your Intercontinental Ballistic Hugs (ICBH) are well percieved and a retaliation is launched ..
Ahhh– so I may have totally made up my own story (based on what I want for you).. that too is magic and mystery — and luanchng back some more good energy to Egypt tonight for you ~ and more ICBH too…

A heart whispering moment can worth a lifetime, envision a “what if scenario ! “.
