Tell me,            
How can
Emptiness
Be so heavy?

Some days
The burden is lighter
A helping hand
Carries the weight
With a smile
Or maybe
I find a place
Where it would be safe
To leave it for a while

It always makes its way
Back into it's place
In the middle of me

If only I could stay
In labyrinths green
Ever wandering
In hallways of sunlight
Nothing more than
A lingering thought
Left floating through
Wooden minds and
Mossy corridors

Without (faith)

There is no sky to fall .
No earth to stand .
No breath to breathe .

Without (faith)
My self .
Isn't me .
From a believer.  (:

These passing moments
strike me as
most beautiful,
for even I can tell
that the present
will blossom
into an evocative,
eternal bitterness.

I cherish this
fruitless heartache
with renewed ardor,
as it is the only proof
I had ever loved.

I wanna be free
So please help me and
All I want is freedom
Tonight but
Is this too much to ask
For my Freedom in life
My beautiful Palestine
Needs Freedom tonight
And all we want is to free tonight
So please pray for me every night
That I'm set free tonight
While Palestine is not
Free the whole can truly see
All I want is Palestine to be free
To take away all the pain
And no blood shed today
But tears roll down
Our children's face
Watching then cry in this
Cold dark lonely place and
Palestine should be free
And to never feel this pain ever again
And all I want is Palestine to be free
To love you just the way you love me
Freedom for Palestine because
We are all sadly dying.

he hurt my mother
I'll never forgive him
and make him die
what he did to my goddess

Indeed
a bad habit

Indeed
Mfs be asking
Why I speak less

Man, I just write and read
Nothing more
Thats how I enjoy my life
And it's better than human interactions.

You will not halt the rushing wind
restless seas will turn their tides no matter what you do
rain will fall & wet the land to make it green
leaves will drop at turn of year
you can stop a ticking clock
but you cannot stop time
