Hope 1

Concentration of dreams
A woman I want to become
and yet be different from

Accumulation of images
to make up a story
that reminds me of life
of real life
my life

that what i need and want can
come true

I see it
I feel it
but I don't have it ...yet


I think of the words, the eyes, the expressions, the stories, the moments, the anger , the love, the mistakes, the truth, the strength, the ideas, the little things, the big things, the want, the yearning, the fighting, the patience , the past, the future, the young, the mature, the innocent, the rain, the wind, the wilderness, the city lights, the car lights, the small streets, the beggars, the winners, the flowers, the freshly baked bread, the dinner table, the study room, the magnificence, the necklace, the tears, the time, the night , the jealousy, the plaits, the mandarines, the connection, the peace, the war, the wrong, the right, me


within me there is a woman who wants to fight, live, and never die for life
there is a woman who wants to be better, happier, stronger
there is a woman who wants to be adamant strong independant
meaningful
giving
but not like this

the chronicles are over
the series is done
the pages are turned
and the story of 6/7 years has finished

it is time for my first episode to begin
for my story to start
for my feelings and emotions to be written for my words to be said, it is time for my challenges to be lived and my clothes to be worn, for my mornings to be woken and my nights to be flawless, it is time for my days to be told and my drama to be heard, it is time for my eyes to glisten and my hair to shine, my heart to beat and my soul to listen, it is time for my fears to be hidden, and my patience to be given , time for my story to be told.

but every story has a title
and my title is

HOPE.

What it is...

I see Life like a rose in the ice... beautiful but with cold settings - There are so many incredible things out there - but we always need to fight and perservere against the hardships too... otherwise the cold will win ... and we will wither away.

My imagination has led me to believe in something called 'Sudan Fairytale' -
The fantasy that My country will one day be independant and proud, never selfsish to provide its people with its needs, give freedom and success to all, be forever committed to achieve a prosperous inhabitance to every Sudanese in their own country-

My eyes fail me and I see the truth which I call - 'Khartoum Heartbreak' - This is a theme running through the blog under the 'Khartoum Heartbreak' Poems and whatever else about Sudan conveying broken down love, poor streets and cut off electricity along with a lot of other decays and problems in Khartoum city Life.

But I love my country and so I have no choice but to merge the Pain and the Love as one.

Faith is my heart and I could never do without it hoping in my prayers that I can be someone better always and that God forgives me as I fall in Mistakes through that frozen path of Life...

Sometimes I feel under control with all the too many emotions that run to colour my days and nights - Books, movies, music, dreams, friends, family, strangers, travel, - reality - the 10 O' Clock news -Most of the time I'm very Lost in trying to understand - whatever happens becomes tangled into writing this confusing memoir -

It's a really odd combination of air - not sure whether it is refreshing or suffocating - stabilising or maddening - But I breathe and
so it is
'Memoirs of a Sudanese breath' as I am 'Lost but under control' -
