Hello,

I have translated a poetic piece, a bit metaphorical and difficult from Arabic language to English language.
I would love to hear any thoughts about it and whether it makes any sense...

Is that allowed here or not? May I hear any feedback if I post it?
 
Only one way to find out..................
 
what do you mean?
 
Let everyone see it and you'll soon find out if anyone has any views on it.
I, for one, would be interested.
 
OK. This is the piece, as I said in the title, your thoughts would enrich me for sure...


"The One Hidden Into My Features."


Tonight,

nostalgia overwhelmed,

thereby went out , forgetting my features,

over

the pillow,

tracking imprints of beloved

once

adorned my city

***

I watch for you

my wait is aging

and the female inside of me

fabricates smiles

for bitterness to come

***

As usual

burrowing through the dreams of yesterday

looking for your face

as it found to be hidden,

into my features.

****

Blanketed in Silence

for fear

of stumbling

over the question

why such dancing sadness

is in the eyes?
 

"The One Hidden In My Features."

Tonight,

nostalgia overwhelmed me.

I therefore went out, forsaking my features

upon

the pillow,

tracking imprints of my beloved who

once

adorned my city.

***

I watch for you

my wait is tiring

and the female inside of me

fabricates smiles

for the bitterness to come.

***

As usual,

burrowing through the dreams of yesterday,

looking for your face

as though it were to be found hidden

in my features,

****

Blanketed in silence

for fear

of stumbling

over the question:

Why is such dancing sadness

in the eyes?​
 
What a great help!
Seemingly you grasped the meaning of the poem very well, thank you, I appreciate your help very very much :up: :up: :up:
 
Now you know what I meant in post#2. :)
