What is it, my dear?
Why is there a tear,
Glistening down your cheek.
What is it, dear child, do you seek?

Oh, fairy godmother!
It is they, they're the bother!
With their snobbish attitude,
Leaving me here, in solitude.

They make my heart aches,
While I give them smiles that are all fakes.
They don't listen to me!
You see,
They cut my words like a dagger,
Which makes them the ragger!

Life with them is tough
And if I try to talk, they'll scoff.
So I just keep quiet,
While they make a nonsense riot.

Fairy godmother, I beg of you,
To cast a spell that's true,
That would help me
And set me free.

Oh, that, my dear, I can.
But here's the plan:
You follow after me,
For saying what I say is the key.

Let your voice roar like thunder,
And not carelessly blunder.
Let you stand tall like a mountain in the storm,
With your bravery taking form.

Say what you need to say,
For how else would they change their ways?
Let them hear you roar like a lion,
So you'd stand out like Orion.

With words of strength and a heart of gold,
Let courage take flight, and make you bold.

the most selfless act of all?


letting go.


fear holds tight, it clings
love lets go
to love is not to need, to love is not to own, to possess, to demand, to expect
to love is letting go of all of that, of all of you and your expectations

when will we learn to love without demanding love in return?

breathe
do you feel your lungs expanding?
do you feel you chest rising?
open
open your eyes
do you see the sun?
the moon?
the stars?
the clouds?
all of them were made for you
you
wonderful
       beautiful
                lovely
                                ­           YOU
sincerely,
someone who cares

He’s playful,
He’s charming.
A knight for all the darlings.

Yet sweet,
And kind!
And knows what's on your mind.

A leader,
When needed.
Facing challenges with his calm.

A master with swords,
And a wielder of words.
A master of both worlds.

Knows how to make me smile
Laugh,
And feel loved.

A knight in shining armour,
For me to call my own.
If only he existed...
One day guys, one day

Ramadhan is coming to an end
And Eid is on its way.
Come with me my friend,
And together we will ride the waves
To our little 𝘒𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘶𝘯𝘨, listening to songs on end
And going through jams that might as well last for days.

The family is waiting for us,
With food stacked up high.
Pretty clothes is a must,
For saying we love ugly ones is a lie.

Eid is coming my friends!
So let's have some fun!
Eid Mubarak! Or as my people say, Selamat Hari Raya!
Khadi Alza Mar 30
Clouds of grey above their heads,
Mopping heads on their beds
Negativity possessed their mind,
The friends I know, I can no longer find.

Why is it at this age,
We're all consumed by rage?
Wait, scratch that.
It's more of a hazy stormy mat.
Shrouded around our shoulders,
Making us bend like we're carrying boulders.

I kind of find it confusing,
Was it really their choosing?
Or is it the environment that changed them?
Now they shine like dull gems.
I hope they'll turn out all right
And hope that the hidden war they fight,
Will eventually be conquered.
And that, would make me feel honoured.
You can only
Isolate the shadow

If you cast
The light

And as it was, is
And will be
