My biggest fear is that

eventually

you will see me

the way that

I see myself
 Jul 2020 Vaniza Ali Merchant

I’m lonely but I make myself that way
I want to be loved, but I drive them all away
I wonder if poetry is
a humble attempt to reduce
the magnificence or terror of dreams
to words.
Too many tags around a baby's neck
Boy or girl
Black or white
Jewish or Hindu
Sikh the light

Gender friendly is now a word
I'm just a person to be heard
A human person born in a world, still round
Looking for love that can't be found
Look at me, talk to me, take me for what I am
Don't judge me by my surface, if you can
I say no to colour, gender, creed and race
Lets make this world a better place

You nod your heads, you can see it's right
But if we agree, who's left to fight
My mind is wide open ,but to blind to see
Can't make up my mind, my god will guide me
We were put on this earth, a universal speck
Too many tags around a baby's neck
Sit and have some tea with me
Enjoy the beauty
Of the scenery
The world has to offer
For what is beautiful isn't for life
And what is breathtaking will breath its last
#unforgetablemoments

Sun
You we're my sunshine
But then I remembered that the sun doesn't just shine for one person.
