taunts
my hunger pains
I walk on by
uninvited
with no place
to
go.
The soul is the human self,
With its desires, emotions and ability to do good or evil,
The soul being the master and the body
the servant to carry out the actions.
The body is the vessel for the soul,
And the seat for the minds activities,
Such as thinking, reasoning and making decisions.
All three are interconnected to make a complete human being ,
And his journey in life.
Whilst the spirit(ruh) is the divine essence,
A breath of life infused in us by Allah,
That leads us to path of righteousness and spritual growth,
The soul is focused on our earthly doings with the body and mind.
The spirit and soul exist after death,
The spirit is seen as a person(a witness) and return to Allah,
The soul will be accountable for your actions on earth
Good or evil,
And will be judged in the afterlife
The body is committed to earth,
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
In the hope of resurrection.

The candle,
Only for yourself,
And your success,
After all it only gives enough ligh5
to find your way.

To feel bad,
Cause it only hurts me,
While the one who has inflicted the
hurt  doesn't care,
Or isn't  aware of it.
Hear not,
See not,
Speak not,
Return not,
Bliss and peace of mind.

A very thin man,
And a very fat prettyy lady,
Met on a warm sandy beach.
They gazed at each other and their hearts thudded,
They played on the beach,made sandcastles  and sang songs  
And hand in hand they let the waves hit their feet.
Then they sailed in a beautiful pea green boat for a month and a day,
They smelled the sea and let their spirits fly,
At night the man would look at the stars above and sing love songs  in a lovely voice ,
As each day passed their love grew.
They came to a land where an enchanting small church stood,
Said the man to the lady,
My Love let's get married,
For long have we tarried,
So they were wedded the next day by the priest with a scar on his face.
The lady said to the man,
Now we are wedded we shall share everything 50/50,
I wash we wear
I cook you eat,
I diet,
Till we become same in weight.

Sad I float by
Like the lonely cloud in the clear sky,
I feel as though like the deep sea,
No one truly knows me.
There are some things I wish not to recall,
Inevitably like rain they must fall,
As dark days behest loneliness,
I search deep within in silence,
I realise what I seek is there in me
Here, there, everywhere free,
Enough my ownself.

It all just to be with you,
I didn't listen to my mind nor to my heart,
Now I am standing at the edge of a cliff contemplating...............
