رح انشر قصيدة إسمها Modern love "الحب المعاصر"... إذا متفهمها كلش طبيعي، لأن انكتبت بالقرن الـ 19
And what is love? It is a doll dress’d up

For idleness to cosset, nurse, and dandle;

A thing of soft misnomers, so divine

That silly youth doth think to make itself

Divine by loving, and so goes on

Yawning and doting a whole summer long,

Till Miss’s comb is made a pearl tiara,

And common Wellingtons turn Romeo boots;

Then Cleopatra lives at number seven,

And Antony resides in Brunswick Square.

Fools! if some passions high have warm’d the world,

If Queens and Soldiers have play’d deep for hearts,

It is no reason why such agonies

Should be more common than the growth of weeds.

Fools! make me whole again that weighty pearl

The Queen of Egypt melted, and I’ll say

That ye may love in spite of beaver hats.
- John Keats, Modern love
أحب قصائده كلش رغم أنها غالبًا صعب تنفهم :")
On John Keats and how great he was
Cleopatra living at apartment No.7, and Mark Antony living next door
Queens and soldiers
Unrequited love (n.)

Not returned, not mutual. one-sided love
It's just the mind, a very complex machine that's constrained by the narrowness of existence, turning its wheels, tantalised by a vision of happiness and sensing, quite rightly and hopelessly, that there could have been so much more to life than there ever will be.

Envy and dissatisfaction fuel the desire to improve
Fermi's paradox:
Where are all the aliens?
Deceiving others, is what people call Romance

- Oscar Wilde
خِداعُ الآخر، هو ما يسمّيه الناسُ بالرومانسية
Btw this is not a statement against romanticism, it's just a declaration of its nature
