…Only the dead have seen the end of war. (Plato)
Or so they say.
There was always dust. Dust in my eyes, my hair, and my breath. Everywhere was dusty so I stopped trying to clean the windows everyday. We didn’t go out much; we usually just stay at home and listen to death on the box machine. Schools were out. The park wasn’t a park anymore, it smelled of burned childhood.
We had soups that did...

Love, God and Infinity
White black and brown mountains,
Blue white and grey skies
There must be a God
There has to be
As the beautiful flakes fell,
I took several scoops and pressed them to my face
It was divine
Maybe this is how to feel God
Or in the stars
If i stared hard enough
Maybe i could see a face
Love is God and my love for him is Godly
His hands pressed to my face
Maybe,
Just maybe if i pressed them hard enough
I...

My Kind of People
I found a perfect description of my relationship with the world. Do not be surprised when you see me just falling in love with people just for being intelligent (i do that all the time):
"i actually feed on intelligence
i love it when people know a lot about a lot of things
about music, films, religion, beliefs, history
i love listening to peoples opinions
i love big words
i want to suck...

For us with thirsty hands
It's 8am
On a cold saturday morning
And i wonder if you think of me.
As the sun rose
Did i rise in your mind?
It's so bright out here
I wonder if it's bright where you are
it reminds me of how bright your eyes are
And how you words soften my bones
Makes me feel light
Do you think of my eyes?
My hands my lips my feet?
Or has your brain drowned me
In a pool of your other conquests?
My thirsty hands...

America is a nation
Built on blood and genocide
Buried occupation
Israel is a nation
Been built on blood and genocide
Occupation occupation occupation
Difference?
America was built behind the eyes of the world
Israel is been built in front of the world.

Sexual Harassment
Note: This something i am going to be writing about a lot so brace yourselves for a truck load of feminist ideologies. Realise that this is a highly sensitive topic for me. More than a feminist, i am a Humanist(not in the actual definition but a complete pro human rights) and a violation of human rights regardless of gender/religion/race enrages me and brings me to this blog.
Ok Listen:

Too White??
What is “too white”?? Is it 5 shades lighter than Barack
Obama or 3 shades lighter than Miley Cyrus?
So lately, I have being spending a lot of time by myself,
thinking, writing, not sleeping and all that and I have being getting very
interesting comments when I speak to people. The most surprising one is “you
are being too white”. It’s always a brick to my skull that phrase and I have
gotten it...

The Irrelevance of Birthdays
I became a year older this month and i have being completely bummed out about it and just overly depressed about getting older. If you do not feel this way about birthdays, that's fine. Ya'all are gorgeous you know, don't let one sadist ruin birthdays for you :D
Recently, I’ve started to see the irrelevance of the amount of effort we put into doing something “fun” on our birthdays. I mean, do...

-the beginning of madness
My lungs expanding in my chest
my throat was on fire
i was on fire
my fingers grabbed for sanity
redemption was gone
drowning in a sea of myself
eyes rolled back into madness
head erupting a lava of commotion
chaos was loud
peace was silent
fire fire fire
STOP
calm
"breathe" i told myself
one,two,three
in,out,in,out
calm
sanity slowly sipping back into swollen lungs
cold
stone, the lava froze
cold
madness
peace...
Salt
So, i am super excited about getting Salt by the amazing Nayyirah Waheed. Her words speak to me in a way two souls intertwined in space and time speak to one another.
She is amazing and her book is out on amazon. Order it and tell me if it does not change you. I told you, words are not just words sometimes, sometimes they are what heals our brokenness and brands us an...
Sleepless with you
sleeping alone
In my spacious bed
With my body hugging itself
My knees held up high to my chest
Both arms tucked safely beneath my head
Falling in love felt safe
Instead of hugging my knees
I hugged you
My head laying softly on your chest
Arms wrapped around one another
My body does not feel the need
To constrict on itself
I open up to you
Knowing you got me
It was safe
Last...

LIFE
Have you ever asked yourself what it is you are living for?
Forget everything you think you know, open your mind now. Did you ever imagine a certain utopia, where every single person just looks at another person and thinks about the life that person is going through? The homeless man down the street and the man in the big mansion next door are living two parallel lives, one is just a side story,...

....and i pray to God
that you find a girl
that looks at you
and sees you,
that sees right through
the mask of righteousness
and virtue that you so
love to wear,
i pray that she sees past
the garment of you,
and sees your lies
and your one two three broken sincerity
and innocence
and when she does
see past all that,
i pray to God
that she will be everything
i never was.

Child Not Bride or Child Not Adult?
This is one article that is long overdue.
I ask you to read this to the end once you have started it and if you are a bigot I urge you not to start reading this because I would hate for any reader to not fully comprehend my point here. Read to the end, I am not spewing words that I do not understand, I know full well what my argument is and I stand by it also I have proof of all that I write so….read...

- Last night,
i wore blood red lipstick,
coloured my eyes black
and painted my face
several layers of brown,
i looked like the definition
of angels in heaven.
Inside,
i was tumbling
down valleys
of self hatred
and several years
of repressed

Tears Of My Mother
I grew up with the idea that only the weak cry. It worked
for me. I wasn’t one of those kids that cried all the time when they didn’t get
what they want, I sit and strategize and I always end up getting what I wanted.
I was a smart kid like that. I blame my father tho, he bought me books that
thought me to be smart.
