Baghdad Nights

Tatjana Ostojic

Top 10 Best Quotes

“Our love is like the moon, changeable through all the phases of complete disappearance to full existence. It raises the sea up to the sky and makes the cool wind ripple its surface. Blindly sparkling it doesn’t let us see. I know I’m not the only one to love you, but your heart inquired only of me.”

“The two of us, two lost keys of the different doors, once strangers and now a souvenir of pain.”

“The new story of ardour unfolding, the tale of tantrums of the hearts. An affair with a stranger who still can’t feel it, while silently roaming its streets.”

“It doesn’t really matter you aren’t here. The raindrops are keeping you alive through growing palm forests. Wild, untamed and unconquered, as your wandering heart.”

“What is love but a word? A feeling roughly concordant to fear? A fantasy that breaks through the heartbreak and endows the defeated with bravery?”

“Stories never told, disappeared in the dawn mist and sunset blaze. Like a movie kiss, not real, but still overwhelms and entices lustfulness, turns me into pleasure and a connoisseur of love. Flying to the heavens above followed by the yearning hope that you will always be close to me, that you will not disperse when we revel in​ one another. Secrets to be kept in one of these terracotta walls that fade away through the dusk, feeling the scented candles of musk, just you and I, two rebels of love, that challenge the logic, the meaning, ​and sense.”

“I'm disappearing in the nightfall, becoming one with the rocks I’m sitting on… Sinking in my own reminiscence of your smile, your lips and your smell… Not missing you, not longing for you, but grieving for the dreams that held the image of the darkest brown eyes. Perhaps I was your one as you called me… It is said a man can be happy with any woman but the one he truly loves.”

“Darling, I’m walking around our places without you. Thinking of the last time we talked, we laughed, kissed, and made love. I couldn’t remember. Not one moment. Not one feeling. Just a faded canvas left in front of me.”

“Tens of voices announced the time for the prayer. In all the magnificence of the scenery, “God is the Greatest” fits flawlessly, and makes me close my eyes and murmur my supplication.”

“To retreat in my aloneness, my beautifully peaceful garden, to find shade under my heart, in the solitude of abundance, without you in sight.”
