Daily Excerpt: Thoughts without a Title (edited by Henderson) - The Forest Whispers My Name by Yousef Belbeisi
Excerpt from Thoughts without a Title, edited by Geri Henderson.
The Forest Whispers My Name
by Yousef Belbeisi
When my thoughts weigh heavy with the burden of time,
I walk in the dim-lit forest, wasting precious time.
I hear my name being whispered in the wind,
It’s saying “You are needed here once again.”
An eagle cries among the trees.
Its scream shivers along my skin,
Like raking claws along dead prey.
These whispering voices talk of my fate.
The howling wolves at midnight day,
The dim light of the moon becomes my dead lights.
It shines on me wherever I go.
It claims my soul never leaving me alone.
I raise my hands to the naked dark sky.
I feel myself being lifted to far away places,
Now traveling lifetimes,
Never being able to stop.
And finally, I see the face of God.
