Still I Rise





You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise.






In The Summer by Nizar Qabbani


Nizar Qabbani, one of my favourite poet. Qabbani was revered by the generations of Arabs for his sensual and romantic verse.. and this is what I felt literally.
