last night the sky of cairo wept and washed my troubles away.
we were both crying at the same time, it was claustrophobic before we cried
it was too much to hold back and swallow before the rain
we ached and we could not hold on any longer to all that is and was
and then suddenly we let it go and we washed the world with drops of water
and it was liberating
it was freeing
i went down stairs and i could smell the air so fresh and clean
it was serene so quiet only at six p.m
like it was dawn
no sound in my street and darkness made it comforting
the earth was washed and so was my soul
the sky has wept and so did my eyes
and now we both breathed in and out and we were not full of troubles
when you are sad let the tears fall
when you are sad say I am sad because of this, right in the second
do not keep it do not stay quiet and do not smile
when you can not take it anymore, follow the ways of the sky and let it rain
it is good for you to cry
and when you finish you feel good like the weather after the rain
fresh and clean and even serene
yes the teary eye is a gift like my prophet has said
we are not metal
sometimes we can not help but cry
and then we can shine again like the sun
and my friend worried about the mud
i told her the mud is what we are made from so do not be bothered by the mud in the ground
we came from there so we can not be too proud and to it we will return
the sky weeped last night
so it is no big deal if you let your tears fall
