How Broken People Fall in Love

How the Broken Fall in Love by Souhaila Taher... Days slip away from you as you dwell in a fragile world, believing you are alive. Then you read a book, or take a trip. And you are surprised to find yourself in a deep slumber. Slumber has two symptoms: The first is restlessness. The second, (when the slumber becomes more fierce and closer to death): the absence of pleasures. It first appears as a benign disease, monotony, boredom, death. Many live (or die) this way, without even being aware of it. They work in offices, drive cars, go on family outings, and raise children. Then they are subjected to some form of shock therapy.. a person, a book, a song. Then it awakens them, and pulls them out of death. And some.. remain in eternal slumber. Anaïs Nin
