Half moon, knees weak


41/365
Half moon,
weak knees
unusually cool breeze 
an audacious wind
and a cloud settling within me

Offered unrequested help 
countless times, now
her reluctance coupled with annoyance 
when things swapped
scratched my inside...

As I kept walking the darkness
Abrar, Rahaf and Ghufran
circled the swings, 
sing in Arabic
"those who suffer don't understand life".
