So tell me
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
I won't be there to catch you if you fall

            *If you don't tell me where you are

Models
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
Models are clothes hangers

      Bound to be tossed aside sooner or later

Fresh, new faces and styles erupt daily*

      Don't take it so personally

Being just a hanger on a rack

Take what you learnt and be grateful for that.

Exhale
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
Wish I had the taste of you on my lips..

The sound of your voice whispering in my ear...

To feel your firm hands grab me greedily

To feel you hungrily, lavishly bite me

To hear you tell me that I am all yours and yours only, forever and ever

To make me tell you I belong to you

Me already Knowing it to be true

As you embrace me tighter

To watch your face as you take what is yours to keep

And be lost with you

For hours upon hours-

Just A dream ..

Twisted reaper
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
You take us when we don't want to leave,

We beg you for more time

But you are heartless and cruel.

If only you were kind

To let us decide

When we are done frolicking

If only you let us decide

When we want to be taken

Hunting a rainbow
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
I see it!
I run!
I leap!
I fall!
I am unconscious!
I'm awake!
I have lost the rainbow from sight!
I close my eyes!
I peek!
I wait for another rainbow!
I'm old!
Time is up!
Only to realise there was never a rainbow.

Hope
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
A seed sprouts from the ground,

fighting its way through

though it was buried by dirt.

So I too, can push my way upwards,

reaching for the sunlight.

Stretching,

hoping,

to be out.

Deceased
Tahirih Manoo Jun 2015
The angel of death embraces us all
One specific day
He comes to collect each and everyone
Destined to be the end of us all
That is-The end of the current physical form we are in
Not the eternal end
For we all go on
Perhaps to another realm
Or we remain in deep sleep for judgement
Maybe our spirit or soul Is instructed to Attach itself
to a new upcoming life
To get a second chance
Or merely to feel a different life
Have varied experiences
In the form of bird, a tree, a speck of dust,
a drop of rain, a tiny pebble, a ray of light,
a smudge of mud,
For there is life in everything
How is there life in even a stone?
For the Supreme Lord made ALL
It is all an illusion under his sway
He created all
so this means all is in him and in him all
We must see God in everything
Living or non living
Animate or inanimate
Moving or stagnant
In air, land or sea.

From the beginning
It was always known and told to us all
That death WILL come.
It's the natural ending season of a phase we called being 'alive'
The winter season if you may
But we must be certain that it is not the permanent end
Some other step comes
only seen to the departed
Some other form it takes
Where it exists or just waits
Death is absolute that it will happen.
But it is not the absolute end.
It is simply a parting.
A farewell
A goodbye
To the face you see that soul as.
Goodbye dear soul
May your next journey be one of light, peace, love,
joy, eternal bliss and comfort.
Travel safe.
Farewell.

For Tahirih
Tahirih Manoo May 2015
Light of my eyes,
angel that saved my soul,
beauty so divine,
more precious to me than gold,
warmth so tender
my skin never feels cold,
pressed against yours
I can grow old with you by my side
I Fear no more,
The one I was searching for has finally come home.
Where she belongs is here with me,
Tahirih we were meant for eachother
-of that I am sure.


Scarlet red were your lips that night,
So tender to mine I can feel it so close, taste so good I can hardly control my desire for you,
holding back is the greatest challenge,
you are one of kind there is no rival,
you are my Queen Tahirih
.. There is no reason for us to part
any who interfere should be charged for treason.
For I am your king and you are my Queen, and we shall create our own dynasty
for we are both royalty


King of the seas,
Queen of the fires,
beauty that burns a hole through any attire,
strength so powerful all shall bow,
we were born to take this world for ours. Waking to destiny,
you and I have begun,
our journey has started,
Tahirih are you ready to fight with me by your side?
Any in sight we shall conquer,
for you my love,  
give me strength to lead,
let us strive forward and plant our seeds, that they may grow and become trees.

Abundance awaits with your belief,
you and I,
There is nothing we cannot defeat!

Typhoon
Tahirih Manoo May 2015
Swirling in a typhoon
Never wanting to be still again
For i have never felt so alive
So captivated by this natural force
A rush
A truth
A powerful pull
A true love

I AM the divine centre of this typhoon
Consumed by its very existence
Wanting to forever dance along with him
To be entwined with him
This typhoon of love i call --
*my soulmate

Tahirih Manoo May 2015
I KNEW he loved me

For before he was gone

He turned back to look me at me one last time

With a longing look of not wanting to be separated from me, his one true love.

Yet he must go.

BUT His look MADE me know...  

That he is and will always be- all mine

Ocean
Tahirih Manoo Mar 2015
The cool water lifts my spirits as it takes me away
I lose myself in melodious , rhythmic waves
My limbs curling and twirling with each swish
Bending and whirling with every swash
The water is with me, being good to me
Dancing and Harmonizing with my body.

I visit ocean, she always takes me for a joyride
I'm her favourite human, she never shows me wrath.
She carries me far away and then she brings me back to land

Tahirih Manoo Mar 2015
Thou wander'st desperately
Carrying thy frozen heart
in shaking, worrisome hands

Lack of love breaks thee
A beg of good fate- remains an unheard plea
Thy life an endless winter
without even a measly 'camp fire'

Thou art cold, unwillingly, remorsefully  cold
Craving warmth for thy forsaken *****
An ***** that has never been played
A thing thou carriest
An instrument called thy heart.
An ***** that has never played- the music of love.

What offends me?
Tahirih Manoo Jul 2014
I am not one to be easily offended
                    
               My compassion kicks in  
                                            
                                     Bitter words can only come from a bitter source



So instead of feeling hurt for me,

I feel hurt for you...

I wonder, what happened that made you temporarily be so?

If it makes you feel any better, then please, continue to throw your darts

and then when you're done, I'll brush off the poison

and give you nectar in return,

for you are in NEED of something sweet

you need it, more than I do, I'll make some more for me later.

So I will do my best to make sure you leave with a full jar of it.



In fact I'd only get offended
                     IF you insult or harm others...
                                         only because I'm not sure if They can handle it .*

If I won't be there to explain what had just happened,
that they were not the real target.
That you were the one who felt so much pain
that it overflowed from your lips
that you had no control
that all you needed was a pretty flower
a loving smile to erase that unwanted stain.

A Saint
Tahirih Manoo Jul 2014
What’s in a name?
His name is what he is
Rishi, a saint, no one better than this
His actions that of his name
Innocent, compassionate, loving
Words match his tender existence

All he wanted was for peace to be among his kin
All he needed was the affection of one swan
To fit his half and make him laugh
He never asks for much, or rather nothing at all
But he prays and prays for the good of everyone
Standing alone, yet he fights for them all

His eyes gentle, like those of a lamb
His voice charming, like a nightingale at hand
His hands that offer so much, is soft to the touch
His smile, oh that smile beckons so much
His laughter rare, a sound that should last forever
Someday soon he shall have just radiance for his cover


His mind that ticks like a well-functioning clock
Takes no time to pause or stop
Apprehensive that his will may be dropped
Yet he strides onward, pushing past fears
His courage brimming over the top
No one knows how many battles he fought

The Lord is with him
And he with the Lord
What he doesn't realize
Is that he an Angel of Love
One that is surrounded by the cold hearts of loss
There, there       -  Handsome Dove,
They will all melt, sorrow will be tossed.*

Emerged
Tahirih Manoo Jul 2014
I was just a caterpillar
               Eager to turn
Unsure what to do to make it happen
I’d sample all sorts of leaves
Wanting them to have an impinge on my existence
Nibble here, devour there
so voracious without a care
               Just Eager to turn.

All along I thought I was pink
Turns out it was all black and white
That phase was just a preparation
For my true purpose
All those struggles
Bending branches, forcing travels
Fighting my way through the chaotic lands of green battle
It was all a grand rehearsal.

Then one day without notification or indication
The real show came to play
In trance I start to weave in beautiful silk
a case, a home, a place to think, I pause…
For the first time I had stopped my crawling.
I cover myself without thought,
No more pondering on why, how, where, when and what.
I did it alone
I'm sure of that

A chrysalis was being given to me
That’s how I see it
For I never even knew how to make it
I never knew IF I’d make it
I’d always worry about if I would break it
Not knowing what that IT even was
Then it happened.
Simple in the end though intricate in steps

I stopped everything
And rested my caterpillar head.
Clung to my home metamorphosing
It was there I saw my heaven
I saw other creations
And found out secrets about divination
I saw why I had done what I did
I knew what was to come-just a bit.

                                                      Three­ months later,
                                                      I emerged slowly
                                                      Each­ day a part of a new life came to glory
                                                      A transformation  
                                                ­      A surprising revelation
                                                      ­Having not an expectation
                                                     ­ I evolved to a butterfly-human
                                               ­       Oh my, the new view is a blessing.

                                         5th, July, 2014     5:02 pm
This was why i was away,
I was...changing.

Now all Pure, Good, Who I want to be- finally.
No more questions, no more doubts, I am happy to be me- Tahirih.

Everyday 'judges'

Why must they deject?

What about the effect?

Why don't they innerly reflect?

They lack intellect.

They only object.

A visit from within.
Tahirih Manoo Mar 2014
I feel waves rushing through me relentlessly 
I choose to focus on just them...
Starting to listen intently...
Beginning to move in rhythm 
to their sweet melody
Hushing me
In lullaby. 

This, her old soul, 
Is Illuminating her core
So that she continues to rise in times of darkness 
That has always been constricting her from tender two
When she began to feel elements like no other.
I am contented she can feel and hear the soothing whispers of nature.

I pray to All-knowing Universe 
Continue to bless this flower child...

Trees.
Tahirih Manoo Mar 2014
We've all come from seeds.
We all have roots-
our ancestors.
We are made in their images.

Though our trees are in different locations,
with branches that have wandered in different directions
we all share the same needs- we all try to sustain our lives
-

   M-     Movement
E-      Excretion
     R-      Respiration
        R-      Reproduction
   I-       Irritability
  N-      Nutrition
G-      Growth


We must accept that the same things happen to us all,
but at different times in various ways.

The leaves from the top may fall sooner than from the bottom,

the water reaches the bottom first and then proceeds to the top,

the sunlight initially lights the eastern half of the tree and sets shining to the western half.  
At one point, directly overhead- Equilibrium.

We should not compare anything of ours to others,
for we all experience the same seasons, at one point or another

I could sit in a tree all day if i could, listen to the trees getting teased by the wind.
So playful, ... nature.
Tahirih Manoo Mar 2014
Who are you to determine if a person is good or bad?

‘Good’ people may do bad things for good reasons;

‘bad’ people may do good things for good reasons.

Unless you feel targeted or have been personally, honestly affected , then you have no legitimate excuse or reason for judging ANY other human being.

Even then, compassion and empathy can overcome whatever surface emotions you experience...

Give yourself a chance to be the level- headed, objective and humane soul you know you can be and have been.

Because at some point, I'm sure you had felt it in yourself,
that light- pure goodness;
whether it was while listening a bouncing baby's cheerful melody of coos,
when you rescued a homeless pup,
Or willingly helped a senior with a task-

Something must have allowed you to tap into your true peace, the moment you find it, keep it, access it and let it guide you in everyday life.

I believe in following your instincts - there are no room for doubts...especially self doubts.
Blatantly, if you don't believe and have faith in yourself ,
how could you possibly expect someone else to?

Be confident- and that can only happen if you
understand yourself,
love yourself,
encourage yourself,
respect and take care of  yourself
and to remember that you don't NEED anyone but *yourself


Most people don't realize it but if anyone sends negative energy to you- through words, actions or insinuations-
That you can simply refuse to accept it and maintain your own positive energy,
leaving you *unaffected
,
pleasant and in control of your own emotions.

If you process rapidly, you'd be able to see that whatever that person may say or do has nothing to do with you- It's just a reflection of their feelings towards themselves

( e.g calling someone ugly because you truly feel ugly in a different way, of course you wouldn't be able to see the beauty of another when you don't appreciate and understand your own inner beauty...so you throw those emotions at someone else because you are stuck on surface thinking and want a 'quick fix'
Well, quick fixes are the worst, with anything!


I was 15 when a classmate threw insults my way but I understood they were because of her insecurities.
I told her and I remember because after, she just looked straight at me she didn't have to say anything,
I just knew she didn't mean it and that she was sorry.
I saw it in her eyes. . .
I said "That's not a very nice thing to tell someone... you don't know what I could be going through right now, but hey, I believe I'm a beautiful soul and I've been around you for quite some time and I can safely say I believe you are too, I hope you deal with whatever you're going through right now and beat it..."
She was still just looking at me...so i said "It's okay, I forgive you"

We never became good friends because I'm picky with my close friends but from then on, she always greeted me pleasantly and never said a bad thing against me ever again  :D  
- high school win!, drama and conflict averted-

Forgiveness can lead to wonderful outcomes.
Try it right now!
Start with yourself!
Forgive yourself right now for something that you are not proud of.
You'll feel lighter...literally too, somehow, you feel the weight off of you.
If you feel that, Your mind found a bit of peace. <3



Back to first topic-->

Yes, we are entitled to our own opinions, if it won't do any good, keep those opinions to yourself.

God is the judge of you, YOU are the judge of you.

Which is the same thing because we are a fraction of God.

Our souls are reflections of God.

To love yourself is to love God.
To insult another person is to insult God.
For God exists in everyone and everything..

YOu can't change people....you can only change yourself.

Everything....starts ...with...YOU!

Pain Reaction.
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
My heart bleeds* for all those who have suffered wrongfully.

                                      My eyes water when I see what they've been through.


My hands stretch out towards them  but they are so far away...

                                      I wish I could help you  ALL  overcome your pain


I clasp, I bow and I pray - that any evil be removed from wherever you are           today in everyway.


A Reaction I Feel Daily

Wishing I could heal. Words are all I have for now. <3

Beauty~
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
True Beauty* is from within

That merely *reflects
on the physical self


- Feb 28th, 2014.  2:06 pm.
The physical self is a distraction- Most people fall for it.
They don't look for true beauty.
They seek shells.
When those shells are broken/damaged, they no longer want it.
Because they only loved the shell to begin with.

Not once did I love someone just for their shell.
I love you for you, nothing less, nothing more.
~LOVE is good~
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
Cold and stagnant* - I was found by a creature with two legs and two arms.
I was in a safe, concealed space before it took me.

Buried - it stuck me down without my consent.
It would not listen to me, almost as if it couldn't hear me.
Probably because I was too tiny. 

Panicked - I was afraid I'd suffocate but somehow I found a way to breathe. 

Scared - It always came back to spy on me, but I was smart-
I stayed hidden below and remained unseen. 

Thirsty -  I soon discovered and made a friend called Water.
 It told me to let it in- that it'll help me feel better.
 It seemed friendly, so I did what I was told-
and let as much in, to my heart's content. 

Changing - I felt myself swelling.
I was nervous of this new bulging yet I kept in-taking-
before Water stopped visiting.

Stronger - I became comfortable with new found energy and decided to stretch below and tour my new home.
 When I did that I met another friend called Soil.
It gave me delicious treats and later in life taught me to search on my own for more.

Brave - One day I had the courage to peek outside.
I stretched upwards amazed that I can change myself in such a manner!
It was then I felt myself glow for the first time!
Instantly, a new friend I met!
Helpful and wise- her name was Sunlight!
She taught me how to make my own food and reassured me that I can utilize her glow whenever she came out to play. 
Seeing Sunlight was the best part of my day.

Bonding - Water said he and Sunlight are best friends.
He goes up to see her and he hitches a ride back down with his Cloud allies.
I wanted to have a close relationship too,
so I started to stretch even more,
reaching as high as I could,
trying to touch her. ( never been able to touch her but at least I felt her)

Growing, stretching and enhancing- below and above -
Green velvets graced my brown limbs and down below I sunk deeper.
I sprouted delicate pink studs on top and learnt to dance with the Wind.
That was the most blissful thing.

LIVING -
Soon after, I even grew fond of Human! That's the word, a Butterfly who drank my nectar, told me it was called.
In the day, out of kindness I gift Human with rich oxygen and in return it enriches my home with good intentions.
Just to let me be me-
pretty as could be-
It sends me positive energy, much to my glee.
Human had let me be free-
never plucked at me.
I was and still am thankful.
I blossomed to the best of my ability until the day I started to wither.

Serene - Soil told me to be optimistic, that it will let me be one with it.
How kind.
It even said "Together, we can help the newcomer and show it how to fend for itself. "
I was overjoyed to hear that - for that meant even in my death- I can still help one more, allowing my essence and presence to be absorbed by its fresh existence

Fading
Just wanted to tell my story
-Before the fall of my last petal.
My life as a flowering plant was exceptional
.

- Feb 28th , 2014        2: 44 am.
A friend of mine asked me, two years ago, why I wouldn't pick the flowers in my garden.
I said and still believe " If I pick that flower just for me then that would be selfish- something so beautiful- deserves to be seen by everyone, also -picking it would shorten it's sweet cycle and I don't have the heart to do that"

~ Tahirih is a flower child in the daytime ~  I cannot hurt my fellow kin.

Music
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
Music - the only friend who you can listen to -
                                                       But can never answer the questions you ask.  

Music- can be responsible for your joy -
                                                      Should never be blamed for your bad actions.

Music is part of your life. Music is your friend.
                                                      What's your friend like?

- Feb 28th, 2014.     1:45 am.
My moods are sometimes reflected by the songs I listen to~

Music = words with melody...and I care about what I hear-

I always ask myself: Was it helpful?

~ My Words ~
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
Words here are unchained...

My

Words grace my best feelings

My

Words get me into trouble

My

Words paint you unforgettable  pictures

My

Words make your heart chuckle

My

Words allow me to achieve more

My

Words speak on behalf of my third lens

My

Words spring tears from unexpected sources

My

Words caress your beautiful mind

My

Words tell honestly

My

Words are of one kind

My

Words have been there to guide you

My

Words can be Powerful or inspirational

My

Words may also seem insignificant, that's fine

My

Words are real, blatant, both selfish and selfless

My

Words soothes, teases, but never abuses

My

Words can be as gentle as a lamb

My

Words get me what i want and need,
to live the way i please

My

Words will be the only thing immortal about me

For words....Words live on.


And these words are all mine.

smoke
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
When smoke fills lungs

            Blood in veins freeze

                       Tears stream down on face

                               Hands collapse disgraced

                                   Heart's screams ignored

                                           Lips curl

                                                   Mouth exhales.

Angel cries for that soul.
When smoke fills lungs.

A preference.
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
I'd feel safer

To pour my heart out to a stranger

Rather than

Look straight at you

And have to feel judged

By your steel blue eyes.

The people that give you the hardest times are the ones closest to you...

Rainbow Land~
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
A few skittles here and there
Ponies running around with fair hair
A magic carpet to fly away with
Takes you far away, sailing into bliss!

A land where lakes are made of petals
Trees become wide awake and sway by your side
The waves synchronize with your own single tide
And we all speak one language, the language of the universe
- Calm and steady. Sure and ready.

If fortunate you hear the whispering violins and classical strings.
This world gives you only whatever you bring.
Listening to the stories told from sounds of nature teaches you one thing.
- There is only one free religion... and it's all about love, hope and endless spring.

  Feb 18th, 2014. 3:43 pm.
A place where it's easy to step into- upon closing your eyes.

A different view
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
Yes, the sun goes down
And the stars are no longer mine
The weather gets rough
- not all the time.
The night comes again
and I admire the sky
- Hopeful? Yes!
- Worthy? Yes.
It's all a cycle I guess
one to embrace
and accept with grace.

-2013
The sparking.

Perception
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
They say true love is blind

I disagree..

The eyes on your face may not

*but the third will see.
Third eye - Spirituality ~

True Love Sees All of a Person

Phase
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
The waves of the ocean are as endless as my thoughts
Calm during the days and recklessly crashing at nights
But the horizon sets beautifully reflecting on mine waves
In need of the water, in need of my phase.

Love. Laughter. Life
Tahirih Manoo Feb 2014
Strolling down a path
Enjoying my rhythm
Curious, brave and happy.
Creatures observing animatedly
Some ferociously
But I smile in response
For whispers in the dark
Knives behind backs
Won't stop these tracks.

A new light beams
A new love for The Supreme
Something real.
Profound happiness beckons me
Soon I will be floating
Truth be told whole heartedly
I wouldn't have it any other way.
