Two Sides

Tearing down mirrors 

To hide from this face 

A dead man is walking 

Inside of this place 

The heart is so cold 

It no longer beats 

I'm a zombie tonight

Getting lost in the streets 

A memory fades 

A lifetime changes 

The heart remains 

Behind bars and chains 

A solitary fate 

Of confinement within 

A mind torn in two 

And a heart filled with sin 

The lies that I tell 

Build walls around me

Each brick clouds my vision 

I no longer see 

Who I really am

Just an empty body 

So I tear down the mirror 

For I am not me 

But I can think 

Therefore I am 

The blood it fills my veins 

And hands 

I raise in demand 

For retribution 

To return to the land 

Where my real life began 

And the mirror is clear 

When I look for desires 

I see only You there 

For You began me 

And You are my end 

My only true Friend 

In this life of deceit 

Yggdrasil

Moon roses 

Night tulips 

That fragrance is 

Sweetness to my lips 

Purple grass

And crystal oceans 

Rivers filled 

With deep emotion 

Diamond skies 

And ruby summers 

Golden leaves fear

The silver thunder 

Yellow winters 

And sapphire springs 

Rainbows dance 

On Saturn's rings 

Tears of Pluto

Jupiters trees 

Wave silently 

In the cosmic breeze 

Venus sings 

Sweet lullabies 

While Neptune sleeps 

Throughout the night 

Mars glows bright 

It's filled with love 

Earth it watches

From above 

The mighty sun

Sits back in shade 

The moon gently smiles 

As it visits the graves 

Of the human beings 

Who rest in peace 

A floating existence 

On the solar seas 

Three Stars

Three Stars

What is the worth of souls

When measured it's weight in gold?

What is the worth of a life 

When taken in the night 

3 bright stars 

Slowly begin to dim upon this Earth

But by the grace of God they'll shine

In their glorious rebirth 

I sit and weep in agony 

While the world looks on in vain 

People caught up in pleasure and pain 

For personal gain 

But we cannot attain 

The being in the Human 

Unless we live for one another 

My soul it weeps 

It weeps 

For misunderstanding each other

And although I never met you all

Your light has reached my heart 

A piece of me I've lost a part

While you suffered by the spark 

Your legacy will live on

And by God my eyes are woken

I cannot bare all of your pain 

So these words I have spoken 

To God we all belong 

To God we must return 

Let not your fate be in deep vain 

And may we all stand up and learn 

I reach into my breast 

And draw the sword of unity 

Together we must stand 

All one under the tree 

All one under the tree 

All one under the tree 

Together we must stand 

All one under the tree 

My Boy

My Boy

The air is full of hatred 
My lungs feel saturated
With visions of war 
And apocalypse 
The hour is near son 
I'm feeling it 

So while you lay down your head 
In your mamas lap
Just remember 
That your papa gotta stay strapped 

I keep an arsenal of words for
The enemy 
Cos while they still breath son 
We can never be free 

But Gods word is the utmost ultimate
Never forget what I teach you 
In this cold world 
Because the hour is near son 
I'm feeling it 
And your papas gotta fight
For the White pearls 

See they're out to get us 
And I ain't down with that
They choke to provoke 
And leave our kids trapped

So take a long hard stare into your mamas eyes
For the future rests between faith and demise 

There's so much I wanna share with you my boy 
Like a world full of peace kids playing with toys 
Sat around the kitchen eating family meals
Watching movies through the winter while we cuddle and chill 

See there were days before this
Before the hatred
Before the air in your mamas lungs became saturated

Before the drones attacked us and destroyed our homes
Before the hour came near
And mama turned to bones 

Before papa got a scar and lost an eye 
But remember my son
That your Lord ain't blind 

For the vision of truth that He has given to us
Must remain in our hearts 
In this treasure we trust 

Cos when the hour is here
All I want from my boy
Is a joyful tear
While we sit and rejoice

As our saviour comes 
And breaks the cross with his hand
And leads us all back
To the promised land 

So my boy don't lose faith 
My boy don't lose hope 
My boy stay grateful
And reap only what you sow

For the machine cannot provide
You with this love
That your mama and papa
And the Lord bestowed from above 

So with this love in your heart
Grow up and be a man
Mama and I are waiting for you
In the promised land

These Words

These Words

As I fill up the needle with ink
And pump these words right into my veins
I'm reminded that these words will bring me no gain
But are words more potent when covered in fame?

These words make my name
6 followed by 5
These words bring me shame
Sex followed by lies
These words aren't the same
They're hollow inside
These words are insane
They follow my mind

Flip it
Change the rhythmic flow
These words bring to light
What my heart doesn't show
These words make me feel I'm big and I'm known
Like I'm finally grown
But these words never know

What they're doing inside
The letters and messages
Old newspapers
Emails and credit lists
Diaries stuffed behind cushions with feathers in
Hidden from people
Yet cuddled and read with them

These words unite nations
Like letters from presidents
Or breed holy war
From the venomous terrorists
These words can distort everything from within
Or return our souls to a permanent residence

Flip it
Change the rhythmic flow
These words are a part of my heart and my soul
They soar through the stratosphere all over the globe
And settle near graves like
Dark feathered crows

These words are our own
These words are mine
These words belong to you and I
With these words we reach the sky
And with these words we all must die

These words can change
They all hold fate
They all take blame
They all could hate
They all could save
They all create
They all could push our fears away

These words can bring us brighter days
Or these words can shackle hearts like slaves

These words are what we use today
To try and find a better way

They say the pen can slay the sword
These words can pierce our skin and more
The ink it runs right through my veins

But are words more potent when said again?

#I Am Muslim

#IamMuslim

A soft exchange of hands

A smile, a hug, a kiss

#I am Muslim

A family sat together

Breaking fasts in evening bliss

#I am Muslim

A helping hand

A homeless man receives food when in distress

#I am Muslim

On my knees, hands held to the sky

Thankful for being blessed

#I am Muslim

At work make sure my duties

Are done to the utmost best

#I am Muslim

Stay awake throughout the night

Stand in worship rather than rest

#I am Muslim

Giving gifts to lovely neighbours

Sweet dates and pomegranates

#I am Muslim 

Never hurt a tree or a bird

But rather provide a place for the nest

#I am Muslim

Wonder when God will take us home

Live in hope and loneliness

#I am Muslim 

Loving those who've wronged me

By offering to forgive and forget

#I am Muslim

Putting my mother to sleep every night

In the comfort of her bed

#I am Muslim

Faithless

Faithless

When did faith become so confusing?

When was belief a matter of choosing?

Why does the heart fall far into the cold?

In due time we’re growing old

Why does the Earth crack in between the ground?

Why do the people never stand up and shout?

Why do we follow blindly what we don’t see?

Is this our reality?

While the populous fight

To see the one true light

Illuminated by the will to die

Is this way that we want to live our lives?

For there is no doubt in me

That God is free

So why must we pay with voluntary slavery

To the unknown powers that be

And while the cross is burning

The moon split into 7-7

Buddha cries and

The parting seas come together

The world is searching for that one true key

To eternal immortality 

But in this hunt they find 

That they can leave peace behind

And while innocent die

We all close our eyes

So no more shaking hands 

No more telling lies

No more fake self righteous dirty smiles

No more hidden truth

Behind manmade rules

Because Almighty God has let us choose

So if we can choose to find our way

And you can make up new rules everyday

Then I choose to sail alone

And hope that I am guided right back home

X

Sail away and leave the past behind
Head to the gates of the Most Sublime

Don’t waste time
On this element of minimal purpose
This world is yours man
All the gifts and curses

Still we worship
And stay true
To the path we know
No need to go astray
No need to climb off the boat

Instead let’s sail till the waves run dry
And the ocean fades into dust beneath us
Then raises up
And swallows the sky
Yet keeps us sitting on the edge
Our feet thrust
Out into the open air

As we soar through the tumbling universe
Avoiding the comets as they zoom past our ears
Heading towards the heavenly stairs
No need to mistrust

We’re all here
All the honest men last till the end
No fear
All the good deeds turned into gold
And all those memories left untold
Stay untold until the sky unfolds.

Moon Race

Moon Race 

I’m from a land in a distant place
Way past Neptune into distant space
My father bit the apple in forgetfulness
And then I fell through the crimson nebulae
Into the earth with the human race

So we reach for stars or try to be one
Live off light from the prodigal sun
But there’s no holy trinity
That can keep me together
And God; there’s only One

Has the moon reached its stations yet?
Have the trumpets from space been blown?
Did you recall or did you forget?
That this world has never been your home.

So we outgrow all that we know
In search for truth in this summer snow
And as the rainbow splits the light into six plus one
Seven nations beneath the gold

We must unite for our souls to glow
To return to the land in a distant place
So before the moon hits the finish line
And trumpets blow
Let’s make the most of this Human race.

A Flower Blooms

All this time I feel it’s raining
All over me it’s pouring
All the pain and distress
I cannot forget

Yet after rain the bud starts growing
Then the petals start to reach out
And a beautiful flower has bloomed without knowing
Inside my head

There is no need for me to mask
All that I feel for feeling is human
I must embrace the pain and take all I can get

To scream, to cry and bleeding
Are all signs of your soul healing
I must challenge my perspective on this loneliness

Her heart it starts dissolving
And her memory is fading
But I know inside I deserve more than I get

So I push out all the wrong people
And stick to those who treat me equal
Escape from being dragged down to those deeper depths

Holding onto fierce resentment
Is liking gargling black poison
Inside your soul, inside your heart and in your head

So I must learn to let go of those
Despite the pain that they all caused me
Learn to forgive the world and learn to forget

Each experience, each moment
We have is precious and clear
So I challenge myself to make the best

Of what the Lord has given to me
With gratitude and simple prayer
I can spread my wings and fly out of this nest

Life will knock you down
Your soul can only burden what it can bear
So refuse to let yourself fall down and get depressed

Take the wisdom from each moment
Draw your power from your pain
And remain positive and blessed
Through your distress

Hope is always near
No need to cry so loud to hear it
Remember this life is nothing but a test

So always keep your faith in your heart
Never wonder from the straight path
And find your way back home with God to lay and rest.

A New Day

A New Day

Fear falls down on its knees 

As the sunlight bursts between the leaves

The blessing of day

A chance to start new 

Leave this haunted past behind you 

Forget what's yours 

And focus on His

Return to salvation

Keep your promise 

Do not fail in the words you speak

For He remembers all you've said when you seek, when you seek

The pivotal point 

Of your destiny 

Depends very heavily 

On change heavenly 

God bless us with empathy

And grant us a remedy

Especially against

The enemy and jealousy 

Envy was his legacy

And his downfall came secondly

For if we follow those same tendencies

We will find we'll deteriorate 

Physically and mentally

So let's stop acting recklessly 

Trying to find a life full of ecstasy

Unsteady so instead lets keep our minds presently 

And be deputies with clarity and credibility 

In our words & actions we act sensibly 

Worship The Lord most splendidly 

And to the world we act pleasantly

For we believe heavily in equality

So let's walk the Earth blessedly 

Recite His verses with rhythmic melody

And be in awe of each new day

Breathlessly

Harris Gardens

Harris Gardens

How many fools lose their way
Chasing gold and smiles
How many mothers sat crying 
Cos they've lost their child 
How many families torn
Due to selfishness 
How many broken dreams 
Due to selflessness 

How many tears shed
For the crippled hearts 
How many unmade beds 
For the long departed 
How many kids in the street with no ambition 
How many guys sat behind desks reminiscing 
About the good times we had
And how the world used to flourish 
How many times did we laugh 
As our souls were nourished

But we chose this path 
To eventual misery 
As we chased our desires
Clothes and money
How many empty bedrooms
With no occupants 
How many silent nights 
With dim lights and fast food 
How many mothers at work 
With no time for thinking 
How many families 
Separated from the home 

A house left in ignorance
A time of blessing 
Faded away 
Like this dream of success 
And we all have left now
Is each other 
How much time do we spend 
Loving one another 

Dear God please save 
This house torn in two
Siblings gone askew
Until the end of time 
Please bring us back 
Oh the Most Sublime
To a time where we knew You
A time where we were true
A time where You loved us

And we adorned You

October 4th

October 4th

I need to find a way
To clear the smoke
That’s filled up my mind

It’s been 4 years now
Since I first met you
And loved that smile

But now this pain
Won’t let me go
It hurts each time

I try to find the words to say
But I can’t seem
To let it die

It’s all because I saw in you
What you can’t see
This shining light

But faith it has
Its complicity
To make us both blind

And so I walk..
I walked away
But you ran
You ran from me

And I can’t seem to get this image
Out of my mind
Where we both lived so carefree
And drifted through time

The age it shows upon our faces
We both waste time
Chasing…chasing
A dream that could have been
A love lost in between

So Far Away...

So Far Away...

I step through clouds

The stars my guide

I seek for love

Electric tears fill my eyes

A lost soul

A human being

In a different world 

The sun rises

On the morn of a new day

These days fly by so fast

A year disappears

I cannot win against time

The world it'll spin

With or without me

The Artist paints

A beautiful night

A staircase of clouds

I step through the sky

You and I

Entwined

By the mystical moon

But You're so far from me

And I'm so far from you

True Love

True Love

My love for You
Cannot be replaced
I long to return
To, smell, to taste
The rivers of joy
You've prepared for me
These eyes long
To gaze upon
What we cannot see

The other world
Is where I long to be
And I cannot wait
For death to take me
My heart has felt this serenity
From the moment
You created me
I cannot leave behind
What You have given to me
So I seek for the One

To live eternally
