SAGAL Posted June 13, 2003 Pity Me Not Pity me not For the clothes I wear Nor for the scarve That covers my hair Pity me not For my black garb My modest air My humble heart. Pity me not For my lack of speech B/c my silent voice Can always find a heart to reach. Pity me not For my Muslim name It is the sign of my honor And the badge of my fame. Pity me not And call me oppressed B/c from society's norms I'm differently dressed. Pity me not But try to understand That I love my religion And I'm proud of who I am! Pity me not For following the divine way But pity those Who have been led astray. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Batuulo Posted June 15, 2003 maasha allaah.. sagal - Excellent poem. thnks, jazaki allaah khair, STHLM keep the coming lol. buugi ma buuxsamin miyaa sis? here's Another one, keep writing -No I’m not crazy, And yes I’m for real. I’m not depressed, And I’m not controlled. I’m not a fashion slave, Nor am I any man’s toy, I have my own opinions, And I have my own life. I have many friends, I have a personality. And I have my say, I also have a word or two, For those whose thinking is astray. I don’t care if he likes my hair, Nor do I care for leather pants. I think I’m beautiful, Because God don’t make trash, I also believe that covering myself Is also respecting my body and my mind. Just because you don’t know if my hair Is red or black? Or exactly how tight my jeans are, Doesn’t mean I’m not me, And don’t have a personality. Only those who I chose, Will see the outer me, And everyone one will see the inner me. I’ll voice my thoughts, And I’ll give my ideas. Whether you believe I have any or not. I speak silently, And not just anyone will hear my voice, But everyone will hear what I say, And what I believe in. I’ll walk with my head high, Without making a sound, And everyone will see me. My dress stops you from Judging me by my body or my clothes. And forces you to judge me By my thoughts and my ideas. Not everyone will see my face, But everyone will see its glow. And not anyone can shake my hand, But everyone will feel my firm hold. Not everyone can ask what he wants, But they all know what I would say. I have a life, And I’m respected everywhere I go. Boys don’t bug me nor do they stare. Because they have nothing to stare at, But they are forced to look at me. I am me, And when I go out I’m covered in black. Not a thing will show. Not my hands not my hair. But my thoughts, and my ideas will. And when you see me, You’ll laugh and stare, Because my hair isn’t showing. And you can’t see my face. You’ll think I’m crazy or depressed. But no. Only you are for being so ignorant. So there. Enjoy It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muslim sis Posted June 16, 2003 Assalaama Alaykum W.W Maasha Allaah - Allaahu Akbar. my dear sister's this so wonderfull piece's jazakumu alaah khair I got short One for you. So you don’t like the Jilbab I wear Or the scarf which covers my hair This is your opinion for which I don’t care Allah is the one whom I fear You don’t like where I'm from, Or how I walk, You even laugh at how I talk This is fine you see, Allah is the only one I wish to please Al-Hamdulillah I keep from wrong For Islam is what keeps me strong Al-Hamdulillah I’m not you For when the Day of Judgment comes Allah will be the judge on you.

LOVE_BIRD Posted June 17, 2003 I Live No More Life in its madness, Killed my soul... The eternal hope within my heart, Gone, alive no more Bitter laughter hides the pain of broken dreams and shattered hopes of weakness and self pity The void, all welcoming feeding from my tears of sadness The light of life all but gone I live no more But my tears will exist for eternity For all to see, for all to know I gave up my faith for twisted passion A never ending nightmare Spiritually dead... A black void Cavorting with nothingness I feel I have no face... no shadow.. no substance I am meaningless nothing a faceless entity In which even my shadow ignores I feel I have neither heart nor soul or else i would have poured it out to you... if you had asked.. I feel that the space I take up Is devoid of my existence The solitary tear that I shed Has no cheek upon which to fall Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
