Skylar,
What if you were told that I
Killed myself?

Would you miss my fake smile?

Mom,
Would you cry?

Would you miss
Cuddling with me?

Hellopoetry,
Would you miss my words that
Meant so little?

You are the sunshine that wakes you,
  And the moonlight that sings you to sleep.
You are everything that is here.
  You are laughter; you are tears.
You are passion, longing,
        Reaching, finding...

You are the stars in the sky, eternally bright.
  You are the adventure you seek; the battles you fight.

Let go of fear, there's beauty here,
Just open up your ears and hear!

You are Love.
You are the Question and the Answer.
You are real, you are here, and you are now.

And you are so Beautiful.
Between the Darkness and the Light
Between what's wrong and what is right
Lies the Eternal plight
For we live by faith-noT sight

Between rEmembarance and Forget
BEtween Forgiveness and rESent"
Lies the past and the preSent
For we are merely to Earth sent
To find our way back home

So

Between LessoNs leArnt
We much more gain
The direction"s destinations
To where Eternity -we"ll spend!
"Every child is an artist"
And an artist I'll be
Happiness and freedom
That's music to me.

The echo of the hall
ting, ting, ting on white keys
Like an escape from reality
That's music to me.

Curtains and costumes
Dancing, moving free
Waves of the ocean
That's music to me.

Sun
The sunlight ravishes
the land like an empty promises
ravishes the heart
Takes everything in its path
But there's a beauty to it
indescribable; unimaginable
but with time you appreciate.

The hot breath of nature rains
down on you like volcanic ash
it can burn but you get some
sick pleasure from it. You stay.
You stay because you know it can't
get much better than this.
This moment of womb-like comfort.
-The best way to fight the fear of terrorism
is by turning off your TV screens.-

TV Terrorist.

Ladies hide your burkas!
the 1st amendment ain’t gonna protect ya
because for as little as an ignorant comment...

-YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!

Racist slurs, misinformation and greed
are 1/2 the price of what they used to be
ACT NOW so they can see!

-YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!

Don’t let the sirens of the fashion police disturb ya
we’ll wiretap your mosque from the city to suburbia
just grow that beard Osama style!

-And YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!

After your Morning Joe just head over to CNN
they’re about to have some Baklawa at Fox & Friends
let’s keep feeding more hate speech to the talking heads.

-So YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!


Replace your Quran with the National Enquirer
so you can be as American as they are
Muhammed is not a match for Uncle Sam.

-Just wear that robe the way Jesus did
and YOU can be TV Terrorist too!

You see, turban rhymes with Taliban
therefore you’re all the same so pump our gas
brown skin clashes with the red, white & blue of our flag.

-Just make sure to look angry!
And YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!

Sensationalism in the media is worth more than your beliefs
your good morals and spirituality is not for us to say
as long as that red dot across your forehead turns into an infrared.

-Look up Hassan! And YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!

From the cities of Iraq to the caves Afghanistan
ride your camel and dignity right through an EZ Pass
watch the drones drop and the ratings soar!

-And YOU can be a TV Terrorist too!
The devil preys on the weak
So he slips in while I sleep
And says you'll work for me
I reluctantly agree
He has control over my being
He controls all I am seeing
All of my bleeding
And the death of the innocent i will be feeding
He hands me a gun
And says I'll love you like a son
Says he will give me the compassion I always needed
But in a fashion that makes me no longer a human being
Gives me the sins that calms my nerves
I am forever addicted to the life style I have learned
The fight inside me lives dormant
But if you harm who I love
I will begin the torment
Your defeat
I have sworn it
And to a degree
I have earned it
Because I've over come who I was
But he still lives inside me
The hate that I pop
Make it so he is thriving
I hate who I am
A hollow ******* man
A portal for the evil
A mortal for the ******
