BOB Posted November 14, 2008 The Familiar Stranger: You took my breath away from the moment I first laid my eyes on you my modesty torn to shreds by my honesty as I pay tribute to you words fail me as if millions of swords pierced through my pulse thinking of ways to define your gravity defying physical beauty pardon my mind as it wanders past your corridors beyond the shield eyes beautiful beyond norm oh how I am torn between them lips red and tempting as ripe cherry making my stomach go merry you keep your thoughts straight that are as bright as crystal I listen to your heartbeat as I stare at your bare soul with attentive ears you afford me a quick smile and my self dignity takes a flight I study your movement and realize how you beautiful you make the moment like a swallow bird you gracefully glide past my hesitant heart you offer no resistance when I start caressing your secret thoughts you're even kind enough to allow my mind entangle with yours freely this is beyond what I visualized as I allow my soul to be hypnotized with this serene surroundings as we converse about our secret universe wonder wouldn't have been full without your incomparable presence some dream and others hope while I can only pray to be yours truly one day I wish the night wouldn't last and relegate this journey into my past for you're only a familiar stranger in my most beautiful dream.

BOB Posted November 21, 2008 Inherited Scars: Part 1: The bright light of the moon and the stars in my companion's eyes I credit to her mother swimming in the universe of her womb its my ambition & dream to reach for her moon her milk chocolate tone is found in the way of the same name I prayed that though she chose to be with me she would not have to share the same pain hope is raised as I daydream about fantasy works I remember my own belly button window as I fall asleep viewing the world from my mother, teeming with potential but as I was born my mental state became a stranger the seams of dreams were blanketed by the fabric of reality I developed thick skin from the rich sin forcefully fed to me as a youth grew up around groups of fools whose only concern was fast paper so my peers were blinded by crime, a hard truth swallowed dry and row I ask myself why I evolved around the survival of the heartless for the dead cannot die with no soul to depart with.

BOB Posted November 21, 2008 Inherited Scars: Part 2: I was my mother's solar power...a second son to her galaxy but the tragedy of poverty chased the flame of her oldest the coldest flames reigned in my heart... shredding the tissue that my mother used to catch her tears as her son waved good bye as this tear bore in my heart...the pain scarred my psyche I lost my innocence raped by fear of the enigma known as reality life went on though I wore war stories of gore's glory on my sleeve I was perceived as a dreamer because sleep alone welcomed my screams once rode a chariot of dreams now tangled in the shadows of fiends trying to find the silver lining of a dark cloud eclipsed my destiny death severed my ties with the world, until I tried to rise to a girl flames of passion jumped from the sun due to gravitational pull I fertilized the universe of this woman who refused to see me slumber the wonder of reality again drapes me as I awake from the memories to the warm and luminous smile of my child and I gaze amazed looking in her eyes whom for their beauty I credit the stars as I cry inside knowing that my credit to her world is inherited scars.

BOB Posted November 26, 2008 Incomplete Legacy: I let loose my mind hoping to attract fate's attention my intention being to release my kind from destiny's shackles as my nation stands at the brink of eternal distinction pay attention to my interpretation as I set sail to the sea of emancipation disgrace became our sole garment upon faces that oozed grace we stood watching our senses flee the day our dignity lost its virginity hailing the sinner while slandering the saints became our trend we rejoice wickedness for we know not what goodness is like why mock our integrity by rocking to traitors tune of infidelity? the unjust world calls the enemy's invasion a timely salvation while dismissing the plain genocide as pre-planned suicide I bare my soul with confidence in reaching out to your conscience we're taunted by terror and haunted by the daily horror of the war we breathe with caution for breath is borrowed to us by death our wholesome universe in on the strings of our cruel curse I recite the verses within the holy book for the dying breed of familiar faces I hang my head low as another infant is towed to an early grave I watch their souls leave and as they wear the pain on their sleeve enraged by the few who chose to betray the nation's caged spirit we shall live on as the day of our reward beckons forward for that's given and by God's will I pray we'll all be forgiven.

BOB Posted December 19, 2008 Untitled: My memories of you faded as the sorrow makes the mind feel jaded my vision blurred as you buried my dream beneath the silent stars our woes continue as friends turn to foes that fuel the ravaging fire I make my brain leak with burden as my pain reaches its all time peak emulate my legacy as you calculate my every last breath and heartbeat I can’t escape from the gun totting killer that’s haunting my soul I’m taunted by death while flanked by the weary eyed living I confess my trauma to my soon to be widowed loving princess my success story begins with the pretty empress sitting beside me she can’t sleep as fear forces her to sit up and weep in silence fate is calling me as my destiny’s mauling day slowly beckons make this moment last as I will soon be among your forgotten past we pay ignorance its dues by singing this senseless war’s soulful blues mothers mourn the untimely demise of the blooming flowers of the horn fathers remain immune to pain as they keep the hatred fire fume brothers betray the sisters by whoring them to the sickening poverty like my shadow I take pleasure in being a lost treasure in a product of shame rising voice of conscious breath fill the masculine underneath my chest slain and flayed they now remain for they shall never haunt my soul again.

BOB Posted December 31, 2008 Imaginary Poet: He finger taps in the comfort of a crook embodying the image of poetry's baby girl swallowed by shrinking halls with concrete walls a caged butterfly waits for change patiently jaded to fill the passing moments his soft voice pokes at the dusty notes of an old song mumbles at an unsure verse and plays lightly with a tune that is half faded remembering the memories woven in his song he strains as the melody goes wrong and falters, lost with the sentiment is the sad beauty in longing for a forgotten lyric colours fall from his wings as they stop beating and rest to gather the long lost diary every shadow tucked in yesterday's dark owns its own tale by and by as morn unfolds and they grow old untold had the art of poetry been written they would teach and we could learn to prevail and unlike what we've come to know only few would fall and go cold in their youth so make due with what's left while the dawn looms the lessons fade with the dew and rest assured you'll be on your own again at noon.

BOB Posted January 22, 2009 Sick Note: Watch me attepmt to overcome the unbearable pain I possess listen to my sorrow as I confess my mental decaying sin I wake up screaming in agony only to realize it was another dream seeking out the source of my soul that I lost to you I try to reach out to you through my deceitful thoughts I rage alone within this locked cage I chose to age within I engage in wicket tales without staining fortune's blank page my body is weary yet its your teary eyes that haunt me I asked lot of your fragile heart that I heartlessly hurt I avoid your eyes for the fear of seeing the depth of the void I left history is damned by the men who mocked your golden story forever I lost what I never wanted but forever needed as I grow older I carry the weight of guilt on my shoulder wisdom failed me the day ignorance hailed me as a titan I hate the man I turned out to be and I blame my cruel fate death is my dark pleasure that I wholeheartedly treasure in secret words became the curse that destiny forced me to nurse forgiveness I ask not of you for it wont cure my sickness stab me with vengence and spare me your loving slap.

BOB Posted January 23, 2009 Child Of War: Lost in the deafening valleys of the silence unwillingly ready to embrace the violence children crying as the frightened creatures pass by blind to this deafening & threatening sound of fear war looms and it caresses and threatens my ears it appears these tears will rip through me mindlessly but on a night like this, they'll fall and hit the floor silently simultaneously we'll cry finally famous for the night heroes on their way to heaven...heroes on their way to fight. the quietest night before the wildest day the sun sets to shine bright but then hides away lost in the gaze of the lonesome quiet moon desperately trying to escape this riot...my doom consumed in the hush that has fell all around shaking like a leaf and quivering to the ground my teeth that chatter batter the silence to infinity a metaphor for what matters, my silent misery the cold whispers of the winter blister me distant ghostly chattering of the night come visit me I’m lost in this infamy, this infantry and this destiny I listen to the sounds of the night hesitantly its quietness questions me, deafens me and pesters me helps me, hides me, guides me and blesses me I’m lost in the cold of the quietest night shivers embrace but silence takes hold, I’m alright I’m not fit to fight tonight but my ears will carry on intently right now I’m happy to die...death on the quietest of nights I know my family will mourn my demise but its my destiny.

BOB Posted May 21, 2009 Eternal Night: Sent to me by an old friend. Everything is slowly falling into a place as I begin to feel worthy of my occupied space a more pious state, more at peace with my fate grace seems attainable at this rate I'm on pace to erase my spirit of past disgrace and embrace my renewed faith in the only one who saves He lives in his blessed light, he gives me sight He gets rid of all the unpleasant visions of past and guides me to a clearer and the right path free of wrath and tempting crimes at last, I can surpass these walls that I could never before climb but only fall I'd lay on my back and stare at the sky and sigh Ignorant of the divine design of Allah I'd say to myself, ooh ooooh and woooow to arrive on the reverse side and resume my stride. It was my pride blinding my eyes from seeing the solution of receiving absolution from social illusion and by the devil to keep the people in evil and under oppression the reason for depression that mass sections of my muslim and somali people are held from the lord's affection.. they are following the directions of aggression and erections A successful & successive selective suppression leading the healthy minds to a moral discretion but I have been liberated and the future's bright because of the Lord's light I shall escape the eternal night.

BOB Posted May 21, 2009 Aggghhh. Thinking a thought that you can't sustain can't arrange your feelings around the pain heart melting the veins breaking your skin taking a breath, soul suffocating from with in a dark cold cage traps your heart swelling it whole body pays the toll, left a hole, you crumble and fold life traces new paths, left with new questions to ask new destiny a new task, find foes and new friends to unmask feeling no remorse, fight through the agony and tears walk a strong steady pace cause no end will near hold your head high and leave room for love no one thing is enough, seek glory from above leave a world behind resting your soul for your presence to remain forever long after you're gone remember an unhappy souls seek life while the happy one fears the unhappy be strong and live out the hard times cause a fearful soul filled with life will be happy. Power Lasts For Years...Passion Lasts Forever and Prison lasts With The Pocket But Pain Not More Than Hundred Years. Peace, Love & Unity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOB Posted May 30, 2009 Dig This. She came alone hiding in the darkness of the nightly express my senses woken by the loud scent of her scintilating perfume oozing beauty in confidence while sheltering in fate's grace I listen to her heart beat with its sweet melodic music cords with my ears as her audience she came prepared with words unleashing her lyrical prowess with poise making sweet noise then suddenly battered my heart with her venemous tongue when I hoped she would mend my shatteted hopes & dreams. Ooops...that was the wrong tape...sorry and to the epitome of the idiocy (I'm hurting) that one man could deliver all to divinity that one warlord gave a damn about our infinity that one mob could shed the blood of God's creatures it's a bloody façade *begins to cry* the sadness is why I sob that so many drift in ignorance, just searching for penance not enjoying life without a burden of resentment because they feel necessity to grovel for repentance the sentence in this instance is devastating secular humanistic leaders are celebrating the edict is instituted by the European Union open season on Muslims with free guns for their shooting Hitler solved the wrong problem with his 'Final Solution' in the present as the Qur'an said the world is controlled by secular humanists while Muslims are relegated to the abyss our relationship with Allah (s.w) riding on the river Styx we're already on the wrong path and God is growing in wrath we’ve regressed since prophet Moses formed a snake with a stick we’re less than a half without God in our lives he shared this love with us and we killed it. May Allah s.w guide us all through the righteous path Insha Allah. Peace, ove & Unity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BOB Posted June 9, 2009 I Rest Not In Peace. Underneath my eyelids lay a shape of unknown origin intertwined with morbid visions cold as clay where before I lost my eyes it was worst of times the senseless war in my HOME corrupted all my thoughts so I sought to see no more these sorrowful deeds I carved out the product of what became of my seeds though I have no eyes my soul sense the hatred I see with my broken heart and the vision is blurry the nightmares of my people's demise made mom worry I see their hell and I see their fate without a grace I see their empty shell but see no happy face I see eternal, what I had sought to make rid If you only knew what I see, underneath these eyelids without grasping on to the facts that reality holds the grim fate of my dying Somali nation here to shatter me whole in pieces I watch the world disintegrate from the sin while the dust flies and I'm blown away with the wind I rest not in peace for my kind is tearing me into pieces. PLEASE Soo Duceeya Insha Allah. Peace, Love & Unity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BOB Posted June 11, 2009 Paradise Lost: I remember walking on a trivial boardwalk of condescension contemplating my comprehension of first impressions passing my past blessings, I second-guess my destination estimations overwhelmed my over-obsessive temptations questions came through in waves in a stalker's behaviour if I didn't try to be a saviour, maybe then I could save her she wasn't flavour of the week even though she was unique used to speak of this walk when others critiqued her physique it was a threatening technique but it worked with diligence intense suspense came to contempt as she promoted defence I was only trying to protect paradise from being polluted but when an angel's voice is muted, disputes are recruited our thoughts commuted and clashed leaving me vanquished we attended a banquet she hated, leaving me fortune faded I invaded her personal space as guys degraded my existence so the wind of the shoreline assisted my condition for it pushed my inhibitions off the paradise's cliffs. Few Days Later… I saw the one and only that used to enlighten my nightmares right there, sharing a soda with a man who just might care my eyes flared with fiery compassion to bring a rise from agony raising the white flag in me, the devil turns over to speak to me resigns his position to those who condemn their souls for revenge and engrave it in a gem so they can propose a role to avenge pretending to be in love, rejection came brutally unexpected my arteries flexed and clogged up to bring gluttony with excess tested arrestment as I turned I learned a lesson on the nice spot on the boardwalk, I made a precise stop…I threw up my pain I went over to exchange thoughts which paradise lost. Back To The Beginning... I knew I could've provided better than that man from the banquet I reminisced as I went to drop my obsession into her grave it reminded me of us while it remained painfully labelled "Vacant". the last time I ever saw paradise with the heartless devil from hell I then realized that I didn't lose paradise at all...Paradise lost herself.
