The self

Tell me
I am alarmed
As the morning light begins to disembark
Through the realms of my earth and for
Allah's hearth
Love to hear your voice
My sadness...

My Hugs Are Stronger Than Your Tears!

If life should ever knock you down
And torrents soon appear,
You will get wet but do not fret
I'll hug away your tears!

All torrents like a river flow
And currents act like shears,
When shattered lives are cut like knives
And cause so many...

I was obsessed with love.

I was obsessed with love.

Love,I tried to find you,
in the fairy tales,
in my those childhood days.

I searched you,
in the heart beats of my beloved
and tried to remove the doubt which was clouded.

Love, affection I thought,
you were...

Live Upon the Sand

I met a man upon the sand and this is what he said:
How can I strive to stay alive when I myself am dead?
So when life and pain are one and same,
Mark me down as gone and...

The Accursed

Some foolish game, when power claimed leaves needy in their dread,
Woe to those who claim the rose is blue and is not red.
Gold and food with visions skewed, always to them first
When trumpet blows, then they will know the day they were...

Man in the mirror

Always said I would be better than I was raised to see,
None of the men in my life were the man I wanted to be,
When I now look in the mirror they are the men staring back at me,

Why has life left me empty and so alone,
How is the pain more...

Terminal

I visited you
at a moment
your life seemed steady
at a time
when you were dreaming
dreaming of the years to come

with a precious bond
of loving care
standing at your side
her joy and laughter
easing your pain
from fear and reality

FUNDAMENTALS OF DETERMINATION

Existence stutters, like a few-month-old crying baby who needs to be comforted, because he feels that nothing is right in this world. Man wastes himself. At first, he only divides his strictly assigned, nerve-wracking weekdays into parts, and then...

The Budding Warrior’s decree

Right now is all there is, not yesterday,
nor tomorrow.
Contentment is choice, as is joy with much sorrow.
The hands of time move forward and ticking.
I came into this world, crying and kicking.
The negative thoughts that rise up to chain me....

Sunflower

Roots from a bud which blooms,
inside of aethereal hands.

A world found filled with darkness,
brighter than the light of lost lands.

The source of our anointed ancestors
who offer bandages for wounds that fester.

With no more cries of...
