Life with all its layers.... We attempt tapping into our center selves, glimpsing into an ambiguous reality...

Cruel eyes

I have the best sister in the world.. She need not prove herself to cruel eyes.. She simply IS and she reminds me how to just BE..

To my dear sister, I am your mirror..
The world can be blind, but here I am and I see YOU...
You're a gift to this dunya and beyond...
You're a gift to me.
 Allahu Alim.

Look deeper

And through pain, can shine the truest beauty...
Look in the eyes, and if you are open..
You will see it all..

The Great Love

And it is in this wait,this strain..
That I realize He is only making our love stronger
I always loved deeply, intensely and passionately..
Yet it is during these times of separation, or the mere notion of it..
That really exposes something greater..
A grand love revealing upon itself..
I had thought I had known the full intensity of love in all its intricacies..
I've only begun to realize there is no such measure.
It is constantly changing, evolving, growing and even though felt, it is still an awe inspiring mystery to me...
To be consumed in a love that has no true definition..
Words can't live up to what can only be felt..
Not even the sweetest lips could convey an essence of its Majesty.....

A.S.

without a word

Don't be mistaken..
Her silence doesn't mean shes weak..
It doesn't mean she agrees or disagrees.
In her silence she's taking in the scene..
In her thoughtful manner, shes analyzing.
No desire to prove anything, no need to fit in...
Just listening.

Content with not answering to anyone but Him..
Allahu alim.

His approval, His opinion are all that matter after all..
Allahu alim.

Don't be mistaken...
She isn't a gullible, malleable fool..
Allahu alim.

A.S.

Missin' that beat...

Missin' that special kind of lullaby..
The kind only his heart beat makes..
That pulse soft and steady next to my ear..
He's under my skin..
The only one that makes me whole..
The only one I want...
The only one I need..

A.S.

This cold room...

Home is where you feel safest..
Warm, soft and cozy...

But here in this cold empty room,
My spirit is nestled within' you there..
I turn to thoughts and memories of you..

Within' your heart is the kindle to my very soul..
It is within' you a part of me has taken refuge.

A.S.
