I keep trying to run,
but there is nowhere to hide
from all of my problems
that I keep inside.
Honestly, I think
we're all just waiting to die.
We try to seize the moment,
but then its "good bye",
and forced to face reality,
you see an ugly side.
There is no one that knows me,
that can say I hadn't tried;
everyone's watched me grow,
and seen me as I died.
There's still nothing I want to say
after all the tears I've cried,
my words received no water
and to the world they simply dried.
With no direction,
I only stumble with no guide,
a wimpering soul,
just trying to get by.
My mind my biggest bully,
a truth I should confide...
as it rips on me each day,
I wish to run and hide.
I can't stand to seize the moment;
I must go out with the tide
even though I ran away
they can't say I hadn't tried.

Have i done something wrong?
Why is there an ache in my heart?
Why does it feel that my is falling apart?
Why is it that i cant breathe enough?
Why does life seem to hang from up above?

I guess i did something wrong, or else it wouldn't have turned out this way.
The person i cared for so much about, couldn't have just shut me away.

But i wonder sometimes, is it she to be blamed?
Wasn't it the right thing to do?
Wasn't i wrong to ask for something which wasn't mine?
Wasn't she right when she said, stop! i can't stay up-till 9.
Wasn't i mistaken to think that our lives were intertwined.
Wasn't i really pushing the envelope all the while.

I need to let her go now as she belongs to someone else.
I can't do this to her, can't tear her apart,
She is a little special, just like a lemon ****.
It has to be goodbye now, need to clean up my deeds.
Because i am getting addicted to her, and she is becoming my ****.

Bang.

let them do the job
as they do we need to simply look the other way

The Islamophobia is suffocating
the saturation is enough.

There are children there
but we don't see that.

Children without fathers.
Children without mothers.

The Christian fanatics
are not so different.

You have your flag,
You have your gun.
So do they,
but they're the evil one?

Take a mirror and as you do,
you will see, they look like you.

Your religion is no better,
no holier or worthy,
we are all human
all equal.

But some are more equal than others.
Aren't they?

A message to Judge Jeanine Pirro on her rant about Islam. I am not Islamic, but I am passionate about human rights and I think the recent terrorist attacks have made more people Islamophobic.

Some said, "Let it burn!"
Freedom means what exactly?
Can we have some too?

A mosque vandalized,
A Muslim family killed.
Where is this "freedom?"
Week of Feb 8, 2014 was a bad one for Muslims and for America.

Hurting inside.
Pain is everywhere.
I feel it in my soul.
Or where it should be.
Try and try but everything is already set.
We have no choice.
Its time to leave.

We live so that we may love.
This love makes life worth living
So what happens when we aren't with the one we love?
What happens is that we lose that life
We become a shadow of what we once were.
Doesn't it make sense to try to strip away this shadow?
To return to the light of our life
ridding us of that terrible shadow
Life is for love
Love is **life
If somebody misses somebody that you love, just remember that you aren't alone most people are missing somebody from their life.
