When the light is gone and the darkness comes, When the night is here and the day is done. When you feel the need to hold me close, and that my affection is what you need the most. When you feel lonely and silence falls around, when it feels like your world is falling down. Just call to me and I'll be there, To show you love and that I care. When everyone seems to be coming down on you, and you feel there's nothing that you can do. Just call my name and you will see, that I'll be there to set you free. I am here with you L.L so don't you worry.

I have recently broken up with my long time girlfriend. And since she was so dear to me, I decided to dedicate this song to her. The song is my all time fav and it is called "Let us just kiss and say goodbye". This has got to be the saddest day of my life I called you here today for a bit of bad news I won't be able to see you anymore Because of my obligations, and the ties that you have We've been meeting here everyday And since this is our last day together I wanna hold you just one more time When you turn and walk away, don't look back I wanna remember you just like this Let's just kiss and say goodbye I had to meet you here today There's just so many things to say Please don't stop me 'til I'm through This is something I hate to do We've been meeting here so long I guess what we done, oh was wrong Please darlin', don't you cry Let's just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye) Many months have passed us by (I'm gonna miss you) I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie (I'm gonna miss you) I've got ties, and so do you I just think this is the thing to do It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie Maybe you'll meet, you'll meet another guy Understand me, won't you try, try, try, try, try, try, try Let's just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye) (I'm gonna miss you) I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie (I'm gonna miss you) Understand me, won't you try (I'm gonna miss you) It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie (I'm gonna miss you) Take my hankerchief, wipe your eyes (I'm gonna miss you) Maybe you'll find, you'll find another guy (I'm gonna miss you) Let's kiss and say goodbye, pretty baby (I'm gonna miss you) Please, don't you cry (I'm gonna miss you) Understand me, won't you try (I'm gonna miss you) Let's just kiss And say goodbye

Darman good question. When it comes to choosing husband/wife, you need to seriously consider the person you are getting married to, for you will live with this person for the rest of your life. Good sex, good looks, and wealth do not last forever. Moral values, diin, and solid education will not only last but will come handy in raising kids with proper values. Looks and Sex both fade away with age but morals and education stay with the person for the rest of their life. Agreed that most of us blind ourselves from the fact that our partner has some serious problems, when we are attached to them emotionally. However, if we ignore these early signals, I am almost certain that it will lead to divorce. Perhaps it is not surprising to see the rate of divorce increase at alarming rate lately. I don't mean to be sexist but when it comes to this issue, men are more cautious than women. Women, once they fall in love, usually ignore these signals. I personally have seen a number of women with people who smoke, drink and even worse womenizers. Despite all these, they get married to them and have kids. This usually results the new phenomenon known as SINGLE MOTHERS. Men, on the other hand, will not mind having a good time with women who has drinking and smoking problems but they won't consider her to be his future wife. Men are usually after these sort of women for sex only. In some extreme occasions, they won't even consider her for sex. Having said all these, there is always the exception and all women do not settle for badboys. Finally, one needs to consider heavily the consequences of his/her action, particularly when the matter in hand is your future.

One heart alone, makes but a single beat A sound so low and incomplete A heart all alone, waiting to be heard Knows not the beauty or songs of singing birds One heart all alone, knows not love or tenderness It feels nothing, but has emptiness A heart alone, searches for its mate It waits, trust fate, contemplates Until by chance another beat it hears That sound it has longed for all these years Like the timbre of a bass drum It hears an answer, another thrum Two hearts are beating, strong and true The sound grows louder, waiting is through Two hearts are beating, within one another Searching is over, they have found that lover Two hearts are beating, they grow and grow Together forever, never wanting to go Two hearts are beating, as the sun goes down A love true, a love strong, both are bound And as the sound gently fades into night Two hearts are beating, this they know is just right thump thump, thump thump ...

I would tell you today That you are the one that fills my life Whose smile I cannot wait to see Whose arms I long to have wrapped around me Whose lips I live to kiss Softly, passionately, in every way. I would want you to know That you make my heart skip a beat You fill my soul with contentment You brighten my dark skies You fill my days and nights With stars, hopes, and cascading dreams. I would want you to see How beautiful the world looks with your eyes through mine Your eyes light up the sky Your touch paints the Heavens Your kiss creates amazing rainbows Of beauty, sunshine, and life. I would want you to understand That I have always loved you Before I knew there was you Before our eyes ever met Before I found in you Happiness, completeness, and passion. If there were no tomorrow I would tell you That you are the greatest gift in my life Whose love I cherish above all else You sustain me with Your laughter, love, and friendship Before there was no knowing I'd tell you I love you infinitely, without boundaries, and beyond time.

Just to clear the dust...I wrote this so that it will serve as a deterrent(Prevention) for the young somali generation. Our young generation are our future and therefore, is the responsibility of everyone of us to help build a healthier, better, brighter generation.

Sensual, Thanks for sharing this article and I do believe it does exist among somalis. Though there are some somalis with HIV, their number does not compare to the sub saharan African countries. Places like South Africa, Uganda, Kenya have far more AIDS patients than we do but if we continue this unislamic life style our whole nation is doomed. Please visit the following link and see the map of Africa and you will notice that all the muslim African countries have less HIV-infected people than those of Sub-Saharan Africa. http://www.census.gov/ipc/aidsdb/Map2p.gif

Darman, I am neither racist nor a hater but this is a reality man. If you think I am lying visit the following link. http://www.tgsrm.org/HIV-AIDS.html Remember the folks who maintain this site are African Americans and they always mention it in black channels such as BET. They do it in order to save their younger generation. This is real and there is nothing racist about it but you are incapable of understanding reality I suppose. Read my lips again. I said this is not intended for the religous and people who are responsible for their sexuality. I doubt if a muslim african american will ignore the reality, besides they are not the intended audience of my message. I gues you have not read my last posting fully.

Latiif Somalis, before coming to western countries, were very concervative and islamic except for a few bad ones. Sex was not as prevalent (widespread) among young people as it is today. Now to answer your question, I am not suggesting to mess around with somalis, but if you do, you probably have less chance of catching HIV than you would if you had sex with African American women or somali with previous sexual encounters with African American. Remember this statistics is not from my pocket. This is from and Internationally recognized organization called CDC (Centre for Desease Control). Bambina, According to CDC, you have 1 in 50 chance of catching HIV if you have sex with African American without condom and we all know Girls prefer sex without condom. So it has everything to do with race. Read the study again. The reality is, there are alot of somali girls who are having sex outside of their race, specially with black men and might, as result, get infected. If you think I am lying just look around you. How many girls do you hear or see with kids from other races. Equally there are alot of young somali men who are having sex with a lot of white/black chicks. If these trend goes on, We will be doomed as the rest of African American people. I respect anyone including men/women who wait to have sex till they get married but their number is decreasing. One thing to remember, Somalis will never reveal or admit if they are infected with the desease for a fear of being isolated. So be carefull with who you are dating. P.S This message is not intended for those who are religious and more responsible for their sexual acts. This is just a warning but ultimately it is your decision whether to risk it all or not. Remember this is a matter of life and death.

Since there are alot of somali women and men who are shamelessly dating and having sex outside of their race, there is something you should really consider before your wild side takes over. 15 minutes of sex with HIV infected person will kill you. - 1 out of 50 of African American men are infected with HIV. - AIDS is now the leading killer of African American men between the ages of 25 - 44. So before dating or marying any women/men, make sure that they test themselves. Particularly if they were messing around with other races. Or you will lose your dream of happy family and kids for 15 minutes of sex. Please read the article below to see the real scope of this problem. In the United States, the impact of HIV and AIDS in the African American community has been devastating. Through December 1999, CDC had received reports of 733,374 AIDS cases–of those, 272,881 cases occurred among African Americans. Representing only an estimated 12% of the total U.S. population, African Americans make up almost 37% of all AIDS cases reported in this country. Researchers estimate that 240,000-325,000 African Americans–about 1 in 50 African American men and 1 in 160 African American women–are infected with HIV. Of Those infected with HIV it is estimated that almost 118,000 African Americans were living with AIDS at the end of 1998. 21,900 cases were reported among African Americans, representing nearly half (47%) of the 46,400 AIDS cases reported that year. Almost two-thirds (63%) of all women reported with AIDS were African American. African American children also represented almost two-thirds (65%) of all reported pediatric AIDS cases. The 1999 rate of reported AIDS cases among African Americans was 66.0 per 100,000 population, more than 2 times greater than the rate for Hispanics and 8 times greater than the rate for whites. Data on HIV and AIDS diagnoses in 25 states with integrated reporting systems show these trends are continuing. In these states, during the period from January 1996 through June 1999, African Americans represented a high proportion (50%) of all AIDS diagnoses, but an even greater proportion (57%) of all HIV diagnoses. And among young people (ages 13 to 24), 65% of the HIV diagnoses were among African Americans. Prevention Efforts Must Focus on High-Risk Behaviors Adult/Adolescent Men. Among African American men with AIDS, men who have sex with men (MSM) represent the largest proportion (37%) of reported cases In 1999, more African Americans were reported with AIDS than any other racial/ethnic group.
