Poetry Quote by لطيفة الحاج — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I work all day, and get half-drunk at night.”

“When by my solitary hearth I sit,”

“And this gray spirit yearning in desire”

“If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it's to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel.”
