Unplug

​To keep your faith

To hold onto a hope…
To feel deeply for the injustices…
To continue to find joy
To laugh and play

All are acts of rebellion and defiance
To the machine.

Continue to feel
Look others in the eyes
Read a vibration
Speak kindness into Truth

That’s how you unplug
That’s what it is to be human

Miss you

​I miss you beyond what lies between us.

Not the ocean..

Not even the stars in our reach.

Selflessness asked..

But I restrained it.

Still, here I am with pride.

A heavy nuisance on my shoulders.

Thick enough to cut..

The irony of a love beyond measure,

and holding myself..

With hesitant care..

A silent pride.

All I want..

Is within your arms..

and a silent gaze..

To make the world fade away

Pretty Picture

Ohh

I may seem like..

A pretty little picture

I’ve been through it..

In the middle of hell and back. 

Every smile isn’t in vain 

This is the part of me..

That couldn’t be taken away

Integrity

​

Sometimes walking with Integrity

Means to walk alone.

It’s empathy and compassion with boundaries. 

It’s to not erase yourself,

Or others..

There’s no climbing to the top

Upon the bodies of others to get there. 

And the greatest comfort there is..

Is in the Truth of our Lord.

Allah sees all...Allahu Alim

And Allah is all I need…Hasbi Allah 

Grace is the quiet peace that..

Shows up in our walk.. 

And through our speech. 

The quiet knowing.

Root of anger

​

The very root of all anger..

At the very bottom…

Deepest of the deep..

You’ll  always find…

A broken heart.

Under The Crescent

​Warm and golden..

The candlelight flickering

A neon crescent and star overlooking..

A new throne

Warmed by the children

Playful and mild..

We bow and pray

While kittens hop..

The rug absorbs the world

Nothing outside this space

Finds us here..

Our little time capsule

-A

Here You Are

Here you are

Sweetest love

Hardest fall Ive had yet 

We turned it all around 

Built our own 

Sincerest  love 

You and i evolved

Together made for the

Storms

Peace within our aura

Shielded by..

the sacrifice..

All intentions 

Not a single smile is in vain

Here you are

Sweetest love

Hardest fall yet

We turned it all around 

Purest love of my life
