Tahajjud’s Shrine (Night Prayer)
Mohamed Ellaghafi (Morocco)
More ferocious than war
Are your masochistic glances.
The shadows vanish,
Longing and burning
If only
This cold entity
Would clash
At the core of love,
Spewing from your volcano
The remains of lovers.
More delicate
Than the sun’s details
When it blazes,
Becoming a river
Piercing the heart of noon.
A heart shattering into meteors
And fragments,
While truth perishes.
As if
Instead of battle,
There were an embrace,
And a hand,
Moist and tender,
Would stroke
My severed head.
