Trouble in Paradise

The Book of Poetry
1

After 23 years in the heart of a refugee camp in the Middle East, I set out on a journey—a voyage into the unknown west, where I would carve out a new world. With each step, I gathered my thoughts, and with each breath, I penned them down—capturing fleeting moments of beauty and pain, of loss and discovery.

This book is a testament to the soul’s deep yearning, to the meaning woven into every human feeling. From the ache of suffering to the warmth of love’s embrace, from the darkness of despair to the light of unbridled joy—this collection is a journey for both the mind and the heart. Every poem, every word, is a reflection of the emotions that surged through me, and every image is born of my own hand, drawn to bring those feelings to life. These pages are where words and visions collide, where thought becomes art, and where the soul finds its voice.
