Drive













Black city that runs in my veins escaping through the motorways of anxiety and fear that a red traffic light will suffice to slow me down. I wonder about my junctions and my functions, battery of remedy to electricute my past and blast me into the future so I can drive.. Drive into never never land, drive into me, drive into you and drive into light - but light is far away from hope, drive.....

I drive into my mind to find explanations and reasons, why and when's fly by like highway signs, I forget the brand but i know the meaning - I remember what i should buy - lies and a dry bottle of water. pain seeps through my throat, my gut, my stomach like pain is food to begin with - I sit - still - too many arrows giving me unknown directions, too many memories swaying my dreams.... my dreams.... what were they? where did they go - the only want and desire is to find them - i sip on my broken thirst and turn the gears to find time once more - I screech on the brakes to protect and I open the engine to steam out the steams of tears that collected in my imagination - - i don't know does the car need more oiL? do i need oil - to lubricate the stiffness in my bones - the stiffness .... the way I see my eyes cracking and my vision becoming less than half dimensional - Silence of the moment - my heart races to the emptiness of my resources - what can fix me? - The AA? -

I stare at the sky all the colours running into a swirl of cobweb lace - so low its going to wrap me in its haze, drag me into bliss - i wish it did - take me into another place - so i can see the true identity of my place - but here - is also where i want to be - im confused with my state of plee - i shut my heartbreak and decide to drive on..... Drive

No one is going to have the right screws to replace - the sadness on my face -

But it cant be too late - it cant be

I must drive back to me -

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' -
