I woke up this morning and my name flashed on T.V.
They said i blew up places , they said i killed masses .
Men , women & children I murdered them all.
Who am I ?
I am a muslim and i am taking this fall.
They used my name and spread the terror.
I am not them , it surely is an error.
We, muslims, are the holders of peace , we spread love.
Why am I being  represented by their false actions.
I am a person, with different notions.
World will now brand me a terrorist.
Don't judge me by their actions , I insist.
I am not them, they pilfered my name.
They inflicted libel , and my religion to defame .
I have been robbed , robbed of my name.
I am a muslim , human like you , all the same.
My name has been robbed , my identity stolen
I deprecate the terror and mourn for fallen.
There are millions like me and humanity lies in our depths.
But we are all victims of Identity Theft* ...............
We Muslims condemn  the Paris attack.
you tell me to stop crying,
just brush it off,
that everything will be okay,
but you don't know what i'm feeling,
or how much i hurt,
you said just to go on with life, and to forget about it,
but i'm sad,
i don't expect you to understand why,
for no apparent reason i break down and cry,
my life has been changed forever,
you see?
and that is why i'm not acting like the same old me,
i will never be the same again,
not today,
not tomorrow,
but never,

— The End —
