A Gift of a Journey: Just the other day, as i was on my way, It was your windows that glared into mine, as i gazed into your soul for the first time To possess such beauty of mankind, surely means your one of a kind I wish i could crawl behind your eyes n swim in your sea thoughts, till i reach the shores of a mind still undiscovered If only i can find the compass to start this journey and settle on the edge of your heart, that is yearning to be unconvered With your captivating eyes, you take hold of my being I rise each morning hoping to see you once more As the hands of time tick-n-tock, i wait feigning 2 see that strong black rose, id give anything 4 If only you could crawl behind my eyes You'd see a world with only you n me As surely as there is death n taxes, my gift to you will be, a thought of you n me---as we!

A Quiet Storm: Sparks flew, as I laid eyes on you With perfect features, compared to no creatures Your words captivating, leaving my third eye elevating Having you near, I am empowered without fear Holding you in my hand, builds the strength just to stand I will not loosen my grip of you, till my last breathe is through I now stand on this pedestal, behind me are the days of being just a fool Intellectually growing, leaving my face glowing My behavior is changed, as your history is ingrained Many lost years wandering, spent with a few peers pondering As I continue to age, ill be contempt if imprisoned alone with you in a cage It only increases, my once shattered love that was in pieces The hard headed always got to feel it, to believe it Till your presence, calms one sense Turning the black hearts of many faces, into faithful hearts in different places An army of one await, to defend you against one hate To my right, an army stands with their mind right To my left, an army stands with all that is left Im not speaking of yet another mortal woman with an hour-glass shaped body, but of the immortal pages of the Holy Quran’s body We are all ready-willing-and-able to enter the eye of the storm, ever since all were born I guarantee this will not be a Quiet Storm in the mist, cowards need not enlist!

The Chase: As the sun is chased by the earth, The dark skies open for a birth, Covering only a small space, Stares down the moon in its place, With a canvass of stars as a backdrop, The laws of nature just dont stop, With constant currents crashing the coast-lines, This gravitational pull is an awe at all times, When the cresent moon is chased by the earth, The bright skies open, for a new day has its birth

she still cries: It been only a decade or so, but she is still ill u know Declared to be a hot spot, cuz every1 in it is without a thought What goes around-comes around, bullets n RPGs discharged by those who havent been crowned Aid agencies have been pulling out, n the UN aint even considering her without a doubt To some she is still a dead lost cause, to her family she is still alive, with her beating heart at a pause Waiting for a vaccine to keep her here with us, she still cries as her family is displaced on a plane-train-or-bus Its been known-divide and conquer, thats just how her enemies saw her Me against my brother turned out to be, fratracide at its finest hour-u see As her sisters cry seeing her children die, her brothers aim turning the blind eye With a rich and intellegent ancestry, how can we dis such history In our heads questions still remain, without realizing in our hearts the answers are ingrained They say: a faithful heart makes wishes come true I ask: will mine be realized before my last breathe is through... alexus_orjustice

Com'on my ppl...get your minds outta the cardboard box RnB n hiphop these kids be listenin' to day in and day out !!! Write some poems my ppl!!!

First and foremost, i would just like to say i havent read a single word of all the reply's above mine...cuz its all argumentative! I would just liek to say, if you wanna find a nice somali brotha, then STOP looking an LIVE life to the fullest. In due time, when the time is right, Allah (swt) will bring him to you or you to him. Its just that simple...stop looking and live life. Ad'
