Beware Of Humans
Gul e Dawoodi Apr 2015
Flames touching the sky
Ashes forming endless smoky deserts
Haters are meant to hate and cry
Beware of this fire
Or else you'll burn your feathers

Sealed lips yet so much to say
Hearts filled with feelings and fear
Everyone here wishes to have a fay
Beware of these liars
As their hearts for you are not Crystal clear
Stay away from haters!
And never trust people!
Because you don't know what they think about you. Stay at a distance. Protect the pure soul of yours.

Burning Papers And Roses
Gul e Dawoodi Apr 2015
When all the diaries and roses were burnt
And the pictures were torn apart
Then she finally learned
That these are no memories she made
These can never be enough to hate
The truth had been revealed to her heart
That each time a dead leaf falls
A new one  takes its place anyway
And the tree of her love
shall remain green till the death day
Broken soul had to move on
with the silent wounds of her heart
With a smile on her face
And with the sparkle in her hazel eyes
she welcomed life to burn her soul away
Once again.

When it happens
Gul e Dawoodi Mar 2015
Skeletons walking and a scary scene
But I am used to it for I have seen
Myself with a mask of  pretension
It owns my soul and I am a slave now
But believe me if I do something wrong
I don't have any bad intention
Dislike me,hate me or just snub me
But you see the globe and it's  revolution
So when it all comes upon you
then just do the same without any hesitation

He Wants To Live The Life
Gul e Dawoodi Mar 2015
Lost in his thoughts, a fearful boy he was,
Couldn't perform well because he said so depressed he was,
When they asked him about his fear,
He told them,he would soon be dead
as life doesn't seem to be fair,
No purpose of life there was for him,
He believed he wouldn't be good enough ,
and his insecurity was so firm,
Then one day he realized the purpose of his existence,
He met someone who cheated him ,
but gave him a reason to think in a new direction,
And then and there, he finally found a reason to live,
A reason to love life, a beautiful gift
When the life seems so dull and purpose less and you feel like you are numb , then there comes a point in life where  some people give a new meaning to your life.

A Beautiful Creation
Gul e Dawoodi Mar 2015
Soft and tender existence with fragrance of love and warmth,
Affection and nourishment that gives one comfort as if heaven came down upon earth,
never will I forget her love,an angel who gave me birth
Obedience and silence with a smile of gold
The symbol of beauty and Trust
A drawing in her little hands she holds
A little more respect and a little more regard with a lot of love
I have to give them back
God this is a lovely life with eternal bliss
And for this and all of this, I say thanks.
Happy Women's Day!  (I know I am late)

A Hope In Dismay
Gul e Dawoodi Mar 2015
Beyond measure lies the dismay,
Those broken inside out can not be happy any way
But worries can not be shunned,
They follow you as long as you stay
Pick up the brush of gratification,
And grey your life with felicity day after day
The hardest thing is to live such a life that gives you satisfaction and peace. The world does not gives you the right to live it the way you want but at least you can think of it.

Heading Towards The End
Gul e Dawoodi Feb 2015
Some days have passed and I am left with a few
Torn pieces of my life can not be sewed
Those gone far away from us have come to know
Life is too short,don't waste it to show
Closing my eyes and listening to the rhythms my heart makes
How fast the time passes, it can't be chased
Lost still I am and my fellow beings
But they only realize,when their back leans

Nature Is The Real Beauty
Gul e Dawoodi Feb 2015
The way eagle glides in the air
Plays with the sky so gracefully
No matter if it rains or not
Flying high is it's only thought
Sparrows chirping, singing songs
All the things that I can long
So lucky they are as they have
Freedom to fly, they never hesitate
The shine of earth just before the dawn
The magic of  sky before the dusk
And when it rains drop by drop
In the garden tiny insects hop
All of these blessings they see
Glory of nature that makes one glee
I wish I could fly with those flocks
Instead of walking on these rocks
The beauty of nature is in it's calmness and peace.

Immune To Violence?
Gul e Dawoodi Feb 2015
Bombs and guns are just toys,
The signs of bravery for boys
Immature brains with violence fed to them,
Make them all completely numb
But what about the country men?
You see them crying now and then
Does that make you immune to violence?
Well, that just describes your height of ignorance.
We are so mean.
And that's what kills the strength of a nation.

Stronger Than Ever
Gul e Dawoodi Feb 2015
That*  angel  with  a  broken  wing
Sitting  on    broken  swing
Trying  to  hide  her  pain
So  ­that  she  may  gain
The  power  to  fly  again­
But  suddenly  it  rains
And  her  wing  grows  ­again
So  shiny  and  bright
Like  a  very  stro­ng  light
Now  I  see  her  flying  in  the  sk­ies
Higher  than  ever  she  *glides
People come and go.
Some break your heart and some heal it.
But in the end it's just you!
Never let yourself be their toy.
Be strong because you are precious.

She Knows Nothing
Gul e Dawoodi Feb 2015
She was told,
There  is  always  something  special  ­about  what  people  hold
Talented people who are perfect at their job,
And they have a talent that no one can rob
She  thought  she   too  had  something   precious,
Something inside her waiting to be discovered
Tried  to   get   it   all  out,
But ended up soon
Because  she  was  a  moon,
Who  n­eeds  sun   to  sparkle  at  night
Just like that, she had no light,
No  talent  and   no   beauty,
Rough and scattered personality
She  is  losing  faith  in  herself   day  by   day,
Losing every single reason to be gay
Over thinking ruins personality. But what if that's the only thing you are good at?

Burden Gives No Merriment
Gul e Dawoodi Feb 2015
In order to be glee
One's mind should be free
Free of burdens and exhaustion
Only such life is a satisfaction

This world is a dungeon for us
That is why we have created so much fuss
Just like  birds trapped in a cage
Waiting for the door to open, they gaze.

So let them overburden you with their expectations
And don't say a word about it in hesitation
Just do what they say
As long as you stay
Life is so exhausting,tough and unfair.

Peaceful Loneliness
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015

Discouraged by the society
And being an insecure mess
To  be  lonely  I  guess,

I Am A Shoe Polisher
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
How*  does  it  feel  like
when  you  carry  a  ­bag  full  of  books?
I  hope  that  it  doesn't  feel  like  a  burden  as  it  looks­,

I  wish  to  study  just  like  you,
scamperin­g  towards  the  school   before  the  first  bell  in  a  crew,

But  you­  know  what  I  do?
infront  of  your  school  ­I  sit  and   polish  your  *shoe!
Education is the right of every child.
Earning money is the responsibility of parents.
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
When*   I  wake  up  and  get  ready
For  a  new  day­  to  start
You  kiss  my  forehead  and  call  ­me,  "My  son!"
Mother  I  know  you  love  me
­And  I  am  your  only  star
I  know  you  are­  afraid  to  lose  me
And  father's  heart  throb­s  too
But I  have  to  go  outside  and  Learn­  something  new
I  see  those  protectors  who  ­beat  the  blinds
I  see  those  protectors  who  ­beat  the  children
I  see  how  they  protect  ­us
And  perform  their  duty
Mother  don't  be  a­fraid  of  this
To  die  is  my  duty
You  can­  not  protect  me  outside
They'll  beat  me  too­
If  I  fight  for  my  right
O  Mother!  Hug ­ me  tight
Because  God  knows
This  might  be  ­my  last  *night!
Protector here means Police.
Pakistan's so called Police is also no less than terrorism itself.

Deception
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
See with an eye  of  wisdom,
Yet you'll fail to understand the reality,
Drag the lies until their skin bleed,
Yet you'll fail to expose the reality,
No matter what you do to make them believe,
Deception  is the only reality.
In today's world,  deception is the only reality.
When you are able to understand the truth it's too late.
If you preach the truth, people would say either you are a liar or a mental case.
Because we believe in what we see.
And we only see what we want to see.

What Is My Fault?
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
All your armies,
All your soldiers,
All your tanks,
All your guns,
Against a boy, holding a stone
Standing there, all alone
In his eyes,
I see the sun,
I see the moon,
And I wonder,
I only wonder,
Who is weak?
And who is strong?
Who is right?
And who is wrong?
I wish and only wish
That the truth had a tongue.
Dedicated to the children exposed to the wars. I haven't written it. Just read it somewhere and wanted to share it with you.

And a boy with looks,

A Message To The West
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
Humanity* these days sounds like fantasy ,
Where there is a world of *Justice
, respect and equality ,
Here's the truth fellow!
You don't know anything,
The place where you live,
Is a place of dreams and longings,
You keep your hopes alive,
Even if someone comes and kills you with a knife,
You hope that it doesn't hurt
But it does!
You say they are not humans,
nor their religion is a religion,
They **** others to keep their faith alive ,
But you think it's okay to make fun of the feelings of billions of lives,
You call it Freedom  of   Speech ,
So they have an excuse of what they did
And they call it Freedom of action,
It may give them satisfaction,
But here's another side of the picture
What those Muslims did in france,
Made   Muhammad  happy ? No  chance!
Muhammad always went through this disrespectful  behaviour , from non Muslims during his life,
But always sent   blessings  on them,
instead of cursing them,
You still say you'll draw cartoons ?
I say for the sake of your Lord
Don't act  like  fools ,
That day shall too arrive,
When you'll see the result of those who misguide
I don't support what had been done in Paris.
But I also don't support what Paris was doing.
Muhammad PBUH never gave Muslims  the right to **** non Muslims just because they disrespect our Messenger but he PBUH taught us to be gentle and kind towards them and guide them about right things.
We don't need to **** in order to strengthen our faith.
But you also have no need to do these kind of foolish acts to show your moral values. Respect others and be respected.

You Live For Others
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
Desire** is yours yet you **** it for others,
What you want,
And what you need,
Depends on what others think,
Life is yours yet you live it for others,
And if you fail to do so then,
Why to blame society?
When it's your family !
We spend our entire life thinking about what others want from us and keep trying to fulfill the demands of our family to keep them happy and content.  And in all this struggle we fail to live our own life.

Fearful Soul
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
She loves to watch sunsets ,
Because of the feeling she gets,
She burns inside and sheds tear,
Just like a candle when it melts ,
She is afraid of what life brings,
And how one's fate swings,
She is afraid to fall for someone,
Who might treat her like 'no one' ,
She is afraid to lose their trust ,
Who do for her; their best.
Well...I just tried to write something different from my previous writes. e.e

Flaws Make You Perfect
Gul e Dawoodi Jan 2015
What's inside your heart,
Is a secret between you and God,
You hide your flaws from the world,
By wearing a mask of peace and love ,
Waiting to be understood by someone,
No one knows If you are crying,
But you can't hide it from yourself,
flaws  are  meant  to  make  you  perf­ect ,
God wants you to throw the mask away,
To let them see the real  you ,
Because for your God you are Perfect .
"Your flaws are perfect for the heart, meant to love you. "
You don't need to be perfect.

The Little Things
Gul e Dawoodi Dec 2014
I am a girl who stays at home all day long.
I go to college but still act like school kids.
I like to make weird noises and weird faces in front of the mirror.(and my room locked)
I am very shy.
I never have any idea about anything that happens around me, always lost in my lame thoughts.
I like to  text my friends but they don't reply instantly and that makes me mad.
I am so dumb and feel like I am never going to be perfect enough for someone.
My friends think that I am a nerd. I don't know why they do that.
That's all :)  :p
Note: it's a challenge.  If you like it then write about yourself a little bit. And      
don't forget to use these hashtags. :)

That's Just Okay
Gul e Dawoodi Dec 2014
I see bloodshed of innocents every day but that's okay,
I see their families mourning for them but that's okay,
I see their mothers still waiting for them but that's okay,
I see those tears and pain every day but that's okay,
I see how they try to sympathize them with money but that's okay,
I see how senseless and emotionless we have become but you know what?
THAT'S JUST OKAY!
And maybe that's because we don't care for ourselves anymore.

Feelings
Gul e Dawoodi Dec 2014
They always tell their child,
Those feelings which cannot be expressed by words,
And can only be expressed by actions,
Are the best feelings one can ever have.

They don't just say it
They show it.

Vow

At the beginning of this year
Me and my life took a vow together
We shall not cheat on one another,

I lost more than what I lost in last year
So I took a vow at the end of this year,
Not to trust life

Yes, I live in a world where MEN live
But HUMAN is just a word.
Today, how many of us really know the meaning of these words?  I myself don't know the actual meaning of these words.Because if we knew... our world wouldn't be like this.

A week ago you were here
Among us but we didn't know
with Ideas in your mind
You used to do sketching
You were the brightest student of your class
You loved to do photography
You wanted to be a SSG Commando
You had dreams too
You had aims too
You wanted to be a hero
So here you are now
The whole world knows you
As you can see from the heaven now
I don't know about others but oh my martyrs! You are my real heroes. We shall rise and shine again.  Your precious blood shall not go to waste.

Parasite in a Garden
Gul e Dawoodi Dec 2014
Humanity is the root
Respect is the stem
Love is a flower
Peace is it's fragrance
Religion is a garden
Hate is a parasite
***** blood of love
vanishes peace
Ends respect
Kills humanity
Makes religion look ugly
Every religion teaches humanity, love and peace. Hatred burns everything but that isn't the fault of any religion.  It's the fault of humans.

My whole nation is bleeding.teachers were burnt in front of their students. Bullets were sprayed on innocent lives. THIS ISN'T HUMANITY!  THIS ISN'T WHAT ISLAM TEACHES! THOSE TERRORISTS **** OTHERS IN THE NAME OF GOD BUT THIS ISN'T WHAT GOD WANTS FROM US.

Why People Leave?
Gul e Dawoodi Dec 2014
Lying in my bed at 9:00 pm
Recalling the sweet memories,
Some people gave me
A smile appeared on my face,
A tear ran down my face
That feeling of helplessness,
Took away my happiness
My mind was filled up with questions,
Why this all happened?
Why they had to leave?
These questions didn't let me sleep.
Good thing happen seldom
Good people leave often
But leave behind them sweet and unforgettable memories.  <3

Just thank Him with the true spirit

To us hope is belief
To us hope is a symbol of life
To us hope is a sign of wisdom

To us hope is peace
To us hope is a sword,
That kills the dark knights,
Heading towards our kingdom,
In the dark nights
Never stop believing!
Never lose hope!

Where everybody enjoys,
She sits in a corner with shiny eyes,
That shine is a gloomy tear,
Full of darkness and despair!
