Alive In Our Hearts

"I write poetry of you because my heart remembers your shining smile.
Although times have separated us; I am still falling in loving with your gracious ways. I often wonder will I ever be at your side on that day.
Many flowers have bloomed, withered and died but you’re sacred teaching still resides in the hearts of man and women, who try to emulate your elegant way.
You are alive in our hearts; but your beauty transcends the hearts of humanity.
The moon glistens, mountains tremble and the sun continues its shimmering light,
O Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon you. You have God on your side."

THE LEMON

While I was sitting listening to Shaykh Habib Kazim al Saqqaf (God preserve him) talk on life, I wrote these lines :

The world is a lemon
it is bright and shiny
it looks like it taste delicious
yet, in reality it is bitter and tasteless fruit
so don't be deceived by this fruit
as it will give you no joy
only long term unhappiness
Dear reader, make your heart work for its marker
and your bitter lemon, I a sure you will have a new taste
and you will be hungry no more

Whats Love got to do with it ?

What’s love got to do with it?They say, love got everything, but at the same time, nothing,
Love makes the world go by
It makes birds fly, its makes you cry,
It can gives you that peace inside, that you cant hide, even if you try
It makes you smile and laugh , it gives you hope
With lots of hugs and kisses ,
It manifest in those small things that you do
For only your love in mind
Love got everything to do with it
Yet, at the same time it has absolutely nothing
How do we know what love is?
Love is not lust, lust is not love
Lust hurts, It pains, It can even kill you
The biggest disease in the world, a broken heart
You cant experience love, with someone you barely don’t know
Love grows, like a plant
What may look ugly and unattractive, grows to be extremely beautiful
This is love, everything else is lust? I think ?
Loves not easy though, when it moans, grumbles, and irritates
It has a tendency to makes your heart cry
loves not lust, lust it not love
Why do people find it so hard to know the difference
So what’s love got to do with it ?
Everything, but at the same time nothing

THE UGLY ROSE

You are my rose that blossoms in my heart,
You are the one I never want to be far apart
I think I love you ,
I love your smile it makes me weak,
I love your sensitive hair its unique
I love the twinkle of your eyes, in the gleaming night ,
It makes my heart pound with such delight
because your extremely beautiful
Oh my rose, I just wish you were mine,
Like olive oil shines, so do you
But your shine stains my heart deep inside
You’re the flower that blooms when spring arrives
Oh my rose , I just wish you were mine,
Although time goes by
I think of you all the time,
When the sun rises and dawn arrives
When the birds sing in the morning light
Oh my rose , I am still thinking of you all the time,
Now the sun sets and night enters
The stars are shining, like majestic lights
I think of you all the time
But, the more I think
The more its hurts
Your remembrance has wounded my precious heart
I don’t think I can cope no more
But I still wish you were mine, my rose
However as I have come to understand
All roses have a thorn
They are wither and die

LIBRARY PONDERING

I sit here writing on my laptop
Not knowing what to do
I am really bored and I don’t have a clue
The clock fingers steadily move
Now its going two
As I watch around the library my heart suddenly thinks of you
If only I could sit next to you, and be by your side
For your beauty is sublime, and I love your gentleness too
My heart is increasing in its fondness for you
Its now turned two
I must get but to work but
My hearts still dreams of you
For you are Gods chosen’s guide and Prophet
The one who is a light, which I try to be like
Time ticks but you still stay in my mind

Romeo & Juilet

Oh Juliet, Juliet! Wherefore art thou Juliet.
Juliet has forsaken me,
Broken my heart into a thousand pieces,
By stabbing me a thousand times with her sword
Each cut the pain gets deeper and hurts more,
Who would have thought my dearest Juliet would end up my killer
Romeo has finally died, his broken heart ended up breaking him,
Imagine Romeo died of a broken heart, what a sad way to meet his lord
Many have died before, and many will follow,
The hearts pain is a pain which never goes away but only stains deep
Yet Romeo will try to remain strong for he knows that time heals and memories fade
Romeo thought his Juliet was like a sweet apple
Sweet and beautiful
But he took a bit
And found that she was ugly and ruthless inside

THE HEART ATTACK

You had this elegance about you.
Your clothes, your lovely eyes, your smile too
I thought you liked me too
But, I was deluding myself, again , yet again
Why is it?
The heart desires, what the heart can not have?
The pain of my heart is a pain that never goes away!
But, only stains, deep like marks on clothes
Why do people seek this pain ?
The answer is simply love
Your Love is a net that catches my heart like a net catches fish.
The remembrance of God, is what I need now
For only in this remembrance does
My weak heart find its peace
Not a day goes by that I pray for you
I am living, hoping, dreaming
You would one day come into my life
And be mine for it is you that I love so
I still miss you , Do you miss me too ?
Why are you still staying in my mind ?
Why is it I still have this pain inside ?
Is it because I cant hide the fact that I am still deeply in love with you ?
My heart is living by being wounded
By your twinkling elegant eyes
It is You that I Love
Am I still deluding my self?
I am experiencing a heart attack
It is only Gods Love That I desire now
For His love never runs out
