Tendrils of drowsy pleasure entice and hypnotise,
As daybreak storms; a rapturous collision,
Of distorted cadences and scintillating harmonies,
Between discarded blue-sky sheets.

time heals no wounds
it just gets you used to the pain
such that the pain doesn't hurt anymore

While I run on bare-footed
With the open sky of stars above me
And the heart of a warrior rising
The roar of a woman who defies the shadow of a man
Allah knows.
Allah knows and I trust
That the man who will complement my dreams
Who will let my fire rage higher
And my dreams' thrashing loneliness
Diminish along the breeze like it was never there.
Who will let my fractured identity bleed into his
As if hearth and fire were
Ice on mountains
Who will bind me to the earth
While my soul ravages its void-filled cries
And long for the heavens above to
Release me of the prisons of this temporary being
Allah knows
That man will come
And will do nothing but bring me
Closer to Him.
