I Am the Martyr of Lovers

About this book

When word meets soul, the poet is born. Dr. Said Jamal Eddine—known as the Genie Poet—is not just a writer weaving letters, but an artist distilling from his emotional experience what no one else can express. In his collection I Am the Martyr of Lovers, he takes us on a deep journey into the worlds of love poetry—not in its traditional meaning, but in its renewed meaning touching tenderness and delicacy, and at other times overflowing with reproach and nostalgia. They say the poet writes about himself, and Said Jamal Eddine is a mirror reflecting a unique inner struggle. His collection's introduction points to his possible suffering from Casanova syndrome—the constant search for emotional adventures. This endearing psychological disorder of poets, which may result from emotional deprivation, is what gives his words rare sincerity and depth. He sees beauty and meaning in every woman, and makes his suffering part of the suffering of shining stars. Jamal Eddine's poetry is not merely a description of outward beauty, but a dive into complex human emotions. His poems are not just verses, but living testimony of passion.
