My dreams are forgotten:
Scattered thoughts running through my mind, touching what's inside me,
I narrate it for you and for him, write it in simple words so that it reaches your heart, in a sunset hour when feelings are silent...
“My Forgotten Dreams” began at the age of fifteen. The little girl began to express her feelings and dreams in letters until she matured and changed into a dream, and her literary texts began to touch human concerns.
Al-Dafina talks about human topics such as love, hope, betrayal, alienation, and neglect. For the sake of this dreamy girl and this mature woman, I present to you a summary of my feelings and dreams.
