Inside

Don't feel lost in the struggle big or small... The ultimate destination always remains, but we can define the way. Choose to believe in the positive, whether or not you see it immediately. The bumps will never go away, but we can become better adapt in dealing with them. 

You don't need permission to be happy. You don't have to crawl towards it, or beg for it. Its something that is instilled within' YOU, and ultimately in everything once you realize it.

I smile and I'm happy not because I've ever had a perfect life, But because I work for it constantly inwardly and outwardly. 

May we all feel light through the highs and lows, inshAllah... Ameen.

Static

Sometimes people don't listen..They hear what they want, they hear what they fear... No I'm not the monster that you feed inside..

Water vs pebbles

For some,we sometimes set our feelings aside just to keep the flow going. You're the man/woman in the middle, the messenger, the pillar, the diffuser, the reasonable, sensible, patient, compassionate minded individual. BUT, instead of saying sorry constantly for every little thing,don't feel like you're walking on egg shells. Silence is so much better..Better yet smile with the the Truth inside. Don't be sorry for being considerate..Don't be sorry for someone else's misunderstandings and misconceptions of you or the world.

Our actions are a different story. People often say and do two different things... Can we live with our actions by the end of the day?

I'm by far not anything close to being a 'perfect' individual... Who is? But at the end of the day I can live with myself.. If you can say that, than you have so much more to be grateful for than you know. Everything else is superficial... Alhamdulilah

Until the final hour

These eyes...
These lips...
This flesh...
And these words..
They can only show you a glimpse of a love..
Our story only a fragment of the mirrors and diamonds scattered upon Light

These things may satiate you, but only temporarily..
Not the sweetest of words, nor the softest of touches could convey this heart.

As long as you witness me, my soul will forever tease yours..
Loving until the final hour approaches.

It is then the work of love will bear its fruit..

Holding on

She holds a great treasure and she clings to it on her path..
Within’ it..
A love is ever growing, unconditional, and ever lasting…
An indescribable feeling, an esoteric sensation.

This love..
Like warm slow running water…
Misty air..
Teasing rays of light peeking through dancing leaves..
Fresh and sweet of honey and dew.
After a loving word,a softness left at the tip of the tongue & resides on lips. 
An expression of many form…rejuvenation of many..
Every breath is a first.

This treasure is an open secret…
It appears a mystery, yet it is within’ one’s grasp.

Along one’s way hold onto her..
Just as she holds onto you.

A.S.

He Remains

And she escapes the confines of this world to her dreaming.
As the night surrounds her, she thinks of him.
Lingering there till the dawn peeks in..
Rays of light creeping upon her, she becomes self aware..
Finally she shuts her eyes and lets in sleep.
In either state of consciousness... Awake or asleep...
He remains.



A.S.

White noise

At times the time passes with silence.
Nothing has changed, yet here I am in the state I'm in
Silence becomes louder than ever,it's white noise fills my brain.
In my heart I yearn.

I tell myself white lies to get through the space and time.

But in a moment You cut through the static of my own thoughts.
Little did you know you had me at hello.

All the things I told myself to endure the pain of this physical space and time..
All vanish within'this high.

I'll die a million times..
Just to feel you bringing me back to life over and over again.

A.S.
