Obsessive Maneuvers
I am not someone who claims to have insight.

Like the ether, the breezes of contemplation penetrate me
So I find myself dazzled by the halos of imagination
And I am not one of those who claim to be scholars, but
I am possessed by what my subconscious mind does not comprehend
So my life has become a martyr of yesterday and tomorrow
Whenever the whims of my mind attack me, doubt
And when I possess myself with love, I extinguish them
So I have become like a port for the ships of my obsessions
And I no longer care about myself, so I wait for its arrival
But an intuition comes to me from excessive longing
So I learned not to waste time
And I became certain that the waves of life will not stop
Because I do not think about myself, but I am inspired
And I do not write, but my pen rebels against me
And its ink flows until the pores of my words dry up
And my letters fall on the pages
So my thoughts visit me, fleeing from themselves
And my longing teases me to return to me
So I talk to them if my chest tightens, but
I do not deny my honesty
But I find myself longing to reveal it
So I began I lurk in all colors of love
And for the sake of beauty I still resist
No matter how much it seems to me that I don't care about the past
But now I surrender to nostalgia for its ruins
So I start to free what was imprisoned in my thoughts
Then my obsessions return to me again
No matter how much I reject their existence inside me
They come to me whenever I search for hope
So I leave the world of noise and boredom
But unfortunately time has no mercy on me!
And I always find myself writing or drawing
So who among us is the unjust?
Are my many obsessions to blame?
Or have I become more generous because of what the revelation brought me?

I have always been interested in poetry and essay, especially rhyme style, so I decided to post my essay here and see if I have any talent in poetry or not.
