God in the Heart

They say home is where the heart is.

But God is where the heart is.

So where is home? I hope I find you someday.

Mirror Vision

 

I see myself
Meek with hidden song
Angelic and soft
Smiling at myself
Singing to myself

Snow Falls

knife in my back 

prepared attack 

you've got me backed 

into a corner 

a woman scorned

from love forlorn

her body's burned

better send her to the coroner

Light, Love, 

Mercy's Calling

Light, Love....

 is all around

 But like the snow you're falling

bullet in the gun

you said you wanted fun

i'm not that kind of girl

i'm queen of my own world

so go ahead and shoot

better me or you?

I'll be seeing you

Where the cold sky 

sends men crawling

Light, Love

Mercy's Calling

Light, Love....

 is all around

 But like the snow you're falling

Dreams That Come True

 

The dreams that come true,
Are not always the ones you wish to
Sometimes they're the darkest dreams
Where you're looking for your light
In a town of run down Bamboo Houses
And you just can't seem to find
That one camel made out of Gold

Queen to Come

 

We Are One

As long as you live here

It's who you are

You'll understand someday...

"Ohana" Means Family

 "Family" means nobody gets left behind or forgotten...

In A Style Clark Gable Would Have Admired... I Thought It, Classic.

Soul Spark, We Meet Again...

 

As if my soul knew I'd find you there for one moment.

Although you didn't notice me until it was too late.

I'm not sure we will ever see each other again...

But in that moment I felt that love is real.

& I know love is greater than us both.

Midnight Fireflies

 

In the past, I recall dreams of the midnight fireflies.

I'm always moving from one place to another, and it is always darkness around me.

I'm searching for light and for fireflies.

I guess I never once thought of those dreams coming true.

Now I realize the fireflies are the people I've ever known

And their light comes and goes

They fly on as the night turns to day

And I have no light of my own...

So I'm always out catching fireflies.

Just so I can know light in some way...

Golden Ticket to Heaven

 Once upon a moon so blue,

The lord sent you to a city, new

To remind you of a familiar soul

To humble you before you're old.

There you met a fragile heart

Just looking for a new life start

And there you had a chance to be

An example for humanity

You could've been a helping hand

Instead, you offered words of sand

You could've had a ticket ride

To heaven shining in the sky.

Instead your head was looking high

In pride, never lowered your eyes

To see the world was at your feet

that golden ticket - it could be sweet

Humble Azan

 

The morning comes

The humble azan

Fills the room

Of empty temples

Not too loud

And not too sweet

Humble in sound

To cure the air

Two souls sit

And meet for prayer

On time for

Our Creator

A night's worth of sins

Forgotten

In One

Small Moment

The humble azan

Dries the tears of

Midnight's sorrows

The humble azan

Clears the pages

And starts anew

The humble azan

A moment

Without Judgment

The humble azan

A warrior

In Allah's sight.

Don't Let It Slip Away...

 

Say something loving

I just don't remember the thrill of affection

I just don't remember

Say something loving

I need a reminder, the feeling's escaped me...

I Am, Forgiving

I Forgive Them

 

For when they have taken my shirt, I have given them also my under garments.

When they robbed me of my innocence, I gave unto them also my jar's honey.

& When they have emptied my belly, unto them still has gone my money.

My Love, Myself

 

Dear My Love Myself,

If I could go back in time to be your hero, I would.
I'd save you from all the liars in the world, that your
naive heart ever believed. I'd save you from all the
villains that caused violence to your heart and I'd
even save you from myself. From the parts of me
you would have never thought could ever be me.

Dear My Love Myself,

For the sake of that little girl heart that still fights.
I have to chosen forgive all transgressors who have
cut me from my path, left me naked, bruised me,
and shamed me from my innocence. I have for my
own self chosen to forgive and to let go of those
who still hold grudges against me up until this day. 

Love,

Myself

In The World You Can't Live Without

 

As all things must surely have to end

The great loves will one day have to part

I know that I am meant for this world

And in my mind as I was floating, far above the clouds

Some children laughed I'd fall for certain
For thinking that I'd live forever

But I knew exactly where I was

And I knew the meaning of it all

And I knew the distance to the sun

And I knew the echo that is love

And I knew the secrets in your spires

And I knew the emptiness of youth

And I knew the solitude of heart

And I knew the murmurs of the soul

And the world is drawn into your hands

And the world is etched upon your heart

And the world so hard to understand

In the world you can't live without

Watching Love Grow, Forever Letting Me Know

 This is why events unnerve me

They find it all, a different story

Notice whom for wheels are turning

Turn again and turn towards this time

All she ask's the strength to hold me

Then again the same old story

Word will travel, oh so quickly

Travel first and lean towards this time.

Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown

Heaven knows, it's got to be this time

Watching her, these things she said

The times she cried

Too frail to wake this time.

Oh, I'll break them down, no mercy shown

Heaven knows, it's got to be this time

Avenues all lined with trees

Picture me and then you start watching

Watching forever, forever

Watching love grow, forever

Letting me know, forever.

Love to Lust

dreamer

 he will never see through the blue of your eyes
never take surprise to the far wind or sunset

he isn't made of it - he's a dreamer, he says

then why not dream bigger? i ask

If I Could, I Would

If I could manifest someone to love me 

So I would...

This lonely heart has been waiting for so long.

I almost don't even know what it feels to be human anymore.

No one Knows me but Creator

I'm like a dead battery

Or a flower that's dried out

Even down to the roots

& the very core of me

I am starved

I once thought I was a seed to something great

But some days I feel as a rotten fruit

Doomed to be cut down

Incapable of change

& Never able to finish anything I have ever started in my life.

For how can you learn to finish anything in life

When you never learned how to begin?

Someone I'll Never Be

 It's so hard wanting to be (good) ... something I will never be.

It's hard knowing what's right in a world where most don't know truth.

I know my heart and I know what I wanted...

What I wanted is like a dream of a past life when this world is so different.

It is nothing how I imagined this life to be.

My Last Quarter

 

i'd use my last quarter to write you a letter

but you used yours to write someone better

Fair Neighbor

goodbye, fair neighbor

although i loved you so

just like the seasons change

the tides, they come and go

goodbye, fair neighbor

although i felt that spark

and imagined us something

more like a card at hallmark

goodbye, fair neighbor

although i saw the future

our last moment spent together

undoing past lives' sutures

goodbye fair neighbor,

although we may meet again

somewhere between now and then

in a far off distant land

assalam alaikom wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu
