Poetry Quote by Mahmoud Darwish — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The stars had only one task: they taught me how to read.”

“The poem is in my hands, and can run stories through her hands.”

“I prepare my portrait for my woman to hang on a wall when I die.”

“I see what I want of Love... I see horses making the meadow dance, fifty guitars sighing, and a swarm of bees suckling the wild berries, and I close my eyes until I see our shadow behind this dispossessed place...”

“Be my lover between two wars waged in the mirror, she said.”

“There is no name for what life should be, except”

“To wake the soul by tender strokes of art,”

“I still remember you”

“My heart is small, like a love of buttons or black pepper.”

“Fondling,' she saith, 'since I have hemm'd thee here”

“if everything happens that can't be done”

“Be my lover between two wars waged in the mirror, she said.”
