beneath the hijab are my curls / and i still love to do twirls
i hope you will love me by the way i wobble when i look at your face, the way i look away from your (beautiful, beautiful) eyes, the way i talk too much when i talk about my favorite book which you don't understand, and the way i mess up my words in the middle of my stories. because these are all that makes me, me.

i'm not so pretty, so
you are someone's reason to breathe.

dear you (6w)
I want to softly whisper incomplete poems on your collar bones that don't rhyme with anything but your heavy breathing. I want to bury my face in the curves of your neck because you smell like the winter clouds and I've been gazing at the sky since you left.

i want
it's been a while since my pen last flew, across the ocean over the sky, "i'm back," she whispers, silently to my little thumb and the other little fingers, and they lived, happily ever after. i'm using a pen, trying not to make any mistakes for i've no bibs for the little spills from my clumsy self, i'm just letting the words go like how it should be when things come straight from the heart, that's how magic happens, that's where i found you. You? You.

happy ever after
Billions of years before we're here, when Adam only had Eve to hold so dear with the gardens so green, and the skies so clear things were perfect, there was nothing to smear. As the years go by, the buildings got higher more concrete we see, trees are no longer together our selfishness we feed, and we no longer bother, oh Mother Earth, what have we done to Her? Maybe one day when we lose everything, (in fact now, do we still have anything?) we'll learn how to appreciate something so charming, and get back to the days where it wasn't alarming.

trees are no longer together
3 days since we last saw you, that day when you went out of the blue Gone with the wind, leaving us with no clue, Please tell us what they say ain't all that true Tell us you're still there, and you're still standing strong tell us you can still bear - everything, and it won't be too long till you are back in the arms of the people that care Let this all be not just a lesson, but also a reminder to me, to you, and to all of us. How small we are, set side by side with our dear Creator whose Will that we can only trust. Please come back, MH370.

3 days and you're still out there
As the rocks crinkle with my very step, with the leaves rustling through the wind looking up, a beautiful sky i see unfathomable and free, just like how our dreams used to be. As we grow older all that we hear, "Study hard, don't be like her," "I've planned things for you dear," and "Stace, please, are you sure?" So much insecurities,  how do i start? how do i learn, to follow my heart? When will i go, to the places i long? Hopefully soon i'll be somewhere i belong

where did our dreams go
"I love you, girl" She didn't know that that's the last time she'll ever hear you say that you love her "I love you, more" Future plans, big dreams crumbling down from the highest skies leaving you now, with just cries You paused. And with a tint of breath that she used to feel when she lay in your arms that she'll never get to feel again, "If you say so," You finally said with a hinge of laughter hoping that things would seem a little brighter not knowing that there won't be any after and now there's not much left no more little kisses, just life-long misses
