Words.

All too less
All too much
Splatter
Clatter
Crashing
Chasing
Until I'm left with none.
And still,
they are not enough
And still this is not
the end.

How?

How can you miss
someone
You never really had?

If I could choose.

If I had the whole world to choose from,
And all the gold that ever were,
I'd still come running to you,
If I could choose.

One day I'll fly.

One day,
I'm going to grow my wings,
And fly out far from here,
I'll fly to you,
My flight so fast,
I leave behind my fears.

ISEO'S Facebook Update. ;D

What a cool day! Emu performed with the vocals competitors. IT WAS SO SO GOOD!!! Now we're watching the films. Two so far by PECHS Girls school so the noise level is HIGH HIGH HHHHHHHHHIIIIIGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



AHAHAHA! :D SO PROUD OF THOSE GUYYYYSSS. AHH. =') International Schools Educational Olympiad, my people are gonna rock you.

What if?

I still wonder
If my destiny
Is inside those walls.

It has been true.

You will catch me when I fall,
I know I trust you through it all,
And when I get the chance to say,
I can't believe you came my way,
You will smile and tell me how
Through all the years, up till now,
It has been true.

Just one shot.

This my favorite of them all. It means alot to me. It will always be special to me.

She took my hand and squeezed it lightly,
She rested her head upon my shoulder,
She smiled at me and whispered,
"Just one shot at this."
I wondered why she smiled,
Wasn't this all, all too grave?
What if I got this wrong? This only chance?
I whispered back these worries,
But she just smiled more widely,
And sighed,
She said, "Darling, the artist paints his pictures,
But he always has another canvas,
And darling, a writer types out words,
But he can always erase,
So it's the same, isn't it?"
She smiled once more
Her dimples showing,
Her face glowing,
Enough light to lighten the world.
My eyes grew round, and I tilted my head a little,
I spoke after much consideration,
"So what you say,
Is that I can risk this,
But I can take it back?"
She pouted, as if in deep thought,
She lowered her gaze and spoke
In a voice that did not belong to her,
A voice that was close to cracking.
"Not always, no,
But what I mean, is that, if it doesn't
work out to well,
You aren't stuck on the same road,
There's always a way out."
My face contracted, a tear fell,
And I said to her
"What if there is no way out?
What if I am stuck forever in a abyss of tears and remorse?"
She looked at me tenderly,
She wiped away the tear,
And put her arm around me,
She said, "Sometimes you just keep
missing the trains that are supposed
to take you to where you want to go,
Sometimes you do feel stuck,
And sometimes there seems to be no way out.
Sometimes the tears can't stop falling,"
She bit her lip, and hesitated,
Then looked at me intently,
And said with words I knew she spoke from the heart,
"But my dear, there's something in there,"
She patted the left side of my chest,
"Darling, even when you're stuck
You've got the hammer,
You've got the nails,
You've got the paint brush,
You've got the paint,
So if there is no way out,
Make your own."
She said with a playful glint in her eye.
I smiled.
And said, "So..."
She smiled and waited,
"Just one shot at this?"
She kissed my forehead,
and nodded, with tear glistening in her eye,
"Yes darling, just one shot at life."
I did not wipe away the tear
that rolled down her cheek,
Because I knew it was a happy one,
I kissed her back, and whispered to her,
"I'm going to make you proud one day, Mom, if God wills."
I searched her eyes, but I only found more tears,
Then she held me close,
And said to me, "You already have."
She's my hero.

Living.

Let's forget the world for a while,
Let's just smile at anything,
Let's just lie against these walls,
Let's just laugh out loud at everything
Let's just forget the world for a while,
Let's just live for once and cry out to the mass
It's a beautiful, beautiful life here, world,
I'm living what was made for me.

Just hoping.

I just hope that one day
In a crowd of million
You'll smile back,
and notice me.

The Problem.

Time and time again I find,
The world is not to blame,
Most of the times my tears fall out,
I have caused the pain.

The problem is not the world,
The problem is not them,
The problem is me myself and how
I am enclosed in my den.

I'm not ashamed to admit that
I have made mistakes,
I'm not afraid to admit that
I was on the verge to break.

But I realize now that this beating heart,
Beats in me for a reason,
And the pain I inflict on myself,
Is nothing less than treason.

So here I am, I may have lost,
But that's just so much more to gain,
I know now how to conquer now,
How to run away from this pain.
In an hour spent studying physics:

5 minutes - Dancing to the Omore ice-cream truck music.
10 minutes - Logging onto faceboook, blogger, tumblr, twitter for no reason at all.
5 minutes - thinking about food/eating.
5 minutes - Blankness
5 minutes - Thinking about stuff I never usually think about
10 minutes - Panicking about how I don't remember the previous things, and then going through them only to find I do remember them
5 minutes - Staring at pages
15 minutes - Actually studying.

OKay this kind of cheeeeesy, but I've kind a just realized how through everything only, like, a few people have been there. Three or four, people I can count on fingertips that I know will remain 'friends' all through life, I hope so atleast.. Ily guys. You know who you are. I'm so thankful for all of them, but through the DUH DUHH DUHHS, WHATSOEVERS, TOLGAPS, BSC. IN ELASTICITY, SLICK RATS AND BEEMAR CHOOHAS, SABAS, PENGUIN FLAPPERS, 8{D] <- EMOTICONS, WARM AND CUDDLEHNESS, KITKAT BAR, HASSAN BHAI KI HANSEE, TAINERS, I've found friends worth dyiiing fooor. =) And so the ABSOLUTE CHEESINESS is worthh it. =)

I have learnt as I go through life,
Still young and lots to learn,
No one compares to kind of friends,
The kind that you have earned.
The kind that cry with you and then
They wipe away the tears,
The kind that laugh with you,
Through all your haunting fears,
The ones that reach out to you
When you try to run away
The kind that hold you back and don't
Let you fade away.
The kind that can laugh at you
Not just laugh with you
The kind that can make you smile and grin,
Through tears that are tearing you.
You are true and you are brave
You've helped me in my falls,
You stand out amongst the rest,
You're the greatest of them all.

Pretending.

I blind myself, I try to hide, I run away from doom,
Blinding myself to lies, the huge elephant in the room,
Ignoring what I can't avoid, I go on and put on my smile,
I pretend everything's okay, that I am safe from vile.
I pretend that I am fine, that I don't need the help,
I pretend that I am not ...lying to myself.

Huge thankyou.

I owe a huge thankyou to Aleena, 'cause honestly her words are all that I need right now. So if you're still reading, thankyou loads, you have no idea how much you've changed my life. I can never thank you enough for this http://wordsarewings.tumblr.com/post/2528465269 , it keeps me going. I might not know you that well, but you've been an awesome friend. Thankyou, thankyou so muchhhhhh.

What has changed.

Through all the years we did not know,
We did not know that as we'd grow,
That as the days would drag past by,
Our world would contain all these lies,
And we did not notice any change,
But looking back, we're not the same,
This bond is falling weak and frail,
Our smiles and laughs did not leave trails,
Those times we shared and all we had,
We've lost it all, the good and bad,
I look back now and ask myself,
Did you really answer my cries of help?
I wonder now what has changed,
Cause I know by now we're not the same,
I lost us to time, lost you to fate,
We grew apart, we took fate's bait,
And looking back on tears and grins,
I realize what's changed..is everything.

If you look closely, you'll see.

If you look closely you'll see the cracks,
That I've hidden through it all,
You'll see the tears about to drop,
That they're about to fall.

You'll see the ache, the sadness,
You'll see I need the help
You'll see that I'm wanting to
Run away from myself.

This voice in me.

Listen, there's a voice in me,
A force that brews within,
Careful now, this sanity,
Is turning paper thin.

Listen now, it's raging,
Waiting to be free,
I fragile now, and strong because,
of this voice in me.
I LOVE THIS SONG. Maybe it's because it takes me back to the back room of our hold house, when my biggest sis snuck up to the recorder and played it. She'd take me out to McDonalds, buy me that 1 Dhs. Ice cream, which was supposed to be a secret, and then she'd take me to the back room, where the studying table was, and play the song. :D I LOVE it. It's like 10 years old. I still know every single word to it, and I still love every second of itttt. =) Westlife rules, maaaan. One song I can't ever get tired of listening to.

Another normal conversation. :D

AHHHHH, I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH HER. I'M SO SPAZZZZZED. YAYYY. :D

Her: MMYWP (Me missing your wall posts).
Me: MMYEFW (Every freaking where).
Her: Awhgod. I wish they'd understand.
Me: Yeah. Wish wish wish wish WISHH.
Her: I'm crying.
Me: Ohey, me too.
Her: Don't you cry.
Me: Whatever, I'm used to it. But let's be happy. Sadness is boring. I don't like it.
Her: Yeah.
Me: 8{D] Guess who this is?!
Her: Pokey, I'm guessing.
Me: DING DING DINGG, YOU AREE CORRECT. B)
Her: LOL.
Me: COME OVER TO THE POKEY SIDE, WE HAVE ADORABLENESS AND NO ONE GETS HUUURT.
Her: Ahahahahaha.
Her:
{/
# 8D] BIEBER!!
{/

Me: ....O WOW THAT WAS JUST AS BEAUTIFUL AS HIM.
Her: Sorry, drew it wrong. =p
Me: He IS wrong. God, I just laughed so hard.
Her: ;D...WISH POKEY COULD BE REAL THO.
ME: SRSLY.
Her: ....
Me: hahaha?
Her: No..Lalala.
Me: Dadadada.
Her: Jajajajaja.
Me & Her at the same time: Kakakakaka.
Me & Her at the same time: CHEATERRR
Me: AHAHAHAHA
Her: AHAHAHA.
Me: TATATA
Her: FAFAFAFA
Me: TATATATA FO REAL, Tutor is here.
Her: BULLCRAP. OKAY. BYE.
There are some parts I'm afraid to admit to myself. Some pieces that I hide from everyone I know. Some pieces that might push away the more essential pieces in this life. Yet I want them to know. Know everything. I can't bring myself to tell anyone. Would they still think the same of me if I told? I don't know what to do at times that particular piece from the past haunts me and tries to fit into the present. I want it to go away. I want it all to go away. I want to live for the now, but somehow it drags me back to where it all started. I want to let go, push it away, but it seems it will only go away if I reveal it. I don't know how and I don't know why. I just want it to go away from my life.
I want to forget everything about it, I want to undo it, and I want to not know it. I don't know if that will ever happen.

Random rant over.

It's strange.

My heart is a strange well,
Full of deep secrets,
Some you will never know,
And some no one will ever know,
And this heart is a strange thing,
It longs for what is bad
And desists the good with might.
And it's strange.

I'm walking still.

I'm breathing now,
Through smoke and dust,
With cries and screams,
Through dawn and dusk.

Still alive,
amidst the dead,
Still holding high among
hanging heads.

Still standing while
The others fall
Their fears have fallen
But mine stands tall.

But I'll get through,
I'm walking still,
These people of stone,
They have been killed.


Day 11: Share your favorite recipe

Ingredients:

1. The Fridge

Recipe:

Take out anything good from it and eat it.


Day 10: A letter to the person you hate most or caused you a lot of pain

Dear person that caused me alot of pain,

It's funny though, I still care. I still care about why you cry, or what you're worrying about, or what you're thinking of or what's bringing you down. 'Cause truth is, it's nothing more than love for you that's stinging me, or causing me this pain of magnitude I didn't think possible.

Take care,
Me.
Ahhh. I have so many books to read.

1. The book of tomorrow.
2. The Lost Symbol
3. A thousand splendid suns
4. The perks of being a wallflower.
5. The hunger games 1 & 2
6. The Lightning thief
7. Shopaholic series
8. The Guardian
9. The Rescue
10. Fallen
11. Dear John
12. The Last Song

Stupid preliiiuuuumsss!!!!! Still going to read them, though.
"Do you remember the nights we
Stayed up just laughing
smiling for hours at anything,
Remember the nights we
drove around crazy
In love."

Ahh, this song. I will never forget lying there, sharing headphones, the song on max volume, and singing along to it in our bhondee voices, both staring into space.

Breaking apart.

And I was so proud of my world
The one where I escaped to
When everything failed,
But everything is failing once again,
And this world is breaking
Apart.
I don't even know why I'm texting her, why I'm writing depressing shizz on her wall, why I'm messaging her stupid lame stuff with short intervals KNOWING very well she won't reply. she can't reply. I miss you so badly. So very badly.

Waiting for a hello.

I talk to these empty walls, hoping they might speak,
I hope they might comfort me, hear my cries, my shrieks.
But this world is empty now, enclosed with all my fears,
I sit in silence, praying, someone might stop to hear.
I reach out for a hand that is not there, and fail yet again,
A piercing force takes over me, but I have caused this pain.
And yet again, time and time, I hope to see your face,
I hope to find you again, walking through this maze.
Won't you help me up now? I'm weak and breaking down,
Not proud of what I am today, not proud of what I found,
I call your name to the empty air, hoping you might echo back,
I hope for the light that's you, but everything is black.
So I'll sit here, and I will wait for you, as you go places and you fly,
I'm waiting for a hello again, and not for a Goodbye.

Destined to shine - Part II


For the loveliest sister-friend ever.

When misery surrounds, and there's no way out,
When you feel all alone, no one hears you shout,
You grasp onto whats left, but all else seems to fails,
When sobs and tears have left all their trails,
Look up, raise your head, there's someone above,
Someone who cares, someone who loves,
And if ever you need to be loved, to be embraced,
For this kind of love, you will not have to chase,
You will find it within, you'll find it outside,
'Cause there's someone always by your side.
Don't give up, please, just don't, don't let them bring you down,
Don't you let them give you a reason to frown.
I have faith, I believe, you can handle this mess,
'Cause I have faith, I believe, your best days are ahead,
Not worth your tears, any of it, so hold your head high,
Show them you can fly, you can touch the highest sky,
You have time to make whats yours, make all those dreams come true,
You have time to show the world, the wonderful You.
Leave them astounded, enchant them with your grace,
Leave them amazed at the sight of your face,
Don't ever let them hold you back or tell you that you can't,
'Cause they don't know what life has had them grant.
And if they can not value a treasure that is you,
Then they are not worth making you sad or blue.
And when you look inside, you will find in time,
what I have found..that you are...Destined to shine.


“All the while I feel like I’m standing in the middle of a crowded room, screaming at the top of my lungs, and no one even looks up.”

Twenty-One.

What I wrote on the card: "Okay I have nothing to give but this so yeah..UHH, HAPPY BIRTHDAY HYPERBOLA. Twenty One! GEEZ, How old ARE you. Ammi says she'll get you the gift tomorrow, and I got no card, hence this, and as for me I sincerely hope BDS isn't the ruin of you and that you manage to pass the remaining of the two years so you can attend functions and such because I get bored and need someone to annoy. So yeah. That was my AWESOME birthday wish to you. DUH DUH DUHH. Okay Bye. "

(and then she said: "AW, THIS IS CRAP, BUT, VIRTUAL HUGGG." And I was like in front of her. So I cracked up.)

What I really wanted to write: "You're the best big sister ever, in the whole wide world, I love you to death, and my life would be barren and sad without you. You're downright gorgeous, inside and out, and secretly, I wish I can be like you someday. You're like the perfect role model for me, and you've been there through it all. Your help, your advice and all the crazy talk that uplifted me when I was down, I could never thank you enough for it. You've kept me laughing at times I wanted to break and run away. You've helped me because I know I was not alone in what I feel today, that you went through the same things. And the fact that you turned out so amazing, so awesome makes me hold on, and not give up. It keeps me going everyday. I don't want to imagine the house without you, but I know you'll be gone two years later. I don't even want to think about it. I've gotten so used to cracking up every single day with you inside this house that I can't imagine it without you roaming around or stuck in a corner, studying. But two years later it will have to happen, you will leave, and I don't know how I will bear this without you. I have no idea. So I'm going to make these two years worth something, I'll try to. I'm so proud of you already, and I'm going to pray every chance I get, that Allah gives you the very best through out your life, that you become the greatest Dentist ever, that you smile forever, and keep all of us smiling like this forever more, and that you see all the happiness anyone could ever get. You're amazing. I love you."

*Convo*

Sis: Wanna help me with the cleaning tomorrow?
Me: ....
Sis: I'm going to clean up around here, going to burn my books and all...
Me: Hahahahahahahahahaha.
Sis: BONFIRE.
Me: And we shall dance around it...
Sis: Singinggg..."Oompa Loompa!"
Me: What? That doesn't even make sense.
Sis: Well, something like...RIIING OF FIIIIIAAHHHHHHH. *imitates Lambert*
Me: Ahahaha you remember that?
Sis: Oh YEAH, He sang this when he won?
Me: Ahahaha HELL NO.
Sis: Oh yeahh he didn't even win! That other guy did. What was his name?
Me: Kris.
Sis: Oh yeahhh that guy! He was thin. And like this big *raises hands to height of lamp*
Me: Ahahahaha Yeah, that's the one.
Sis: But ofcourse Danny Gokey is the one YOU remember.
Me: Heck yeah.
*Hassan bhai on the phone*
Him: Which camera do you want?
Me: YOU'RE GETTING ME A NEW ONE?
Him: Yeahhh, which do you want?
Me: AHH IDK, BUT THIS ONE I HAVE SRSLY CANT GET REPAIRED?
Him: No, woh apney haqiqi ma'abood sey ja mila. Actually I'm getting it in a offer.
Me: OOHHH YAYYAYAYAYAYY
Him: How many megapixels was the old one?
Me: Twelve!
Him: Okay, this is a Kodak, and it's twelve megapixel too.
Me; AUAUAUAUSYAYAYAYASJJAKSUAYYAYY
Him: Geeez. Kayy I'm bringing that one. Khudahafizz.
Me: KHUDAAAAAHAFIZ.

YAHAHDJDHEYAYAYYYYYYYYYYY. ILHIMSOMUCH.

Fear.

So afraid to look in the mirror.
Fear of seeing what I've always
Feared.

There's a better world.

What keeps me going now,
What keeps my head held high,
What keeps me standing this firm,
What keeps me hoping,
Is believing
There's better world beyond.
Me neither.

Do what you are meant to do.

Don’t let them pin you to the wall

Don’t let them leave you to your falls

This is yours, and this is you,

So do what you are meant to do.

"The description of Paradise which the Muttaqoon have been promised is that in it are rivers of water, the taste and smell of which are never changed. Rivers of milk the taste of which will remain unchanged. Rivers of wine that will be delicious to those who drink from it and rivers of clear, pure honey. For them will be every kind of fruit and forgiveness form their Lord."
[ Quran 47:15]

"And their recompense shall be Paradise, and silken garments, because they were patient. Reclining on raised thrones, they will see there neither the excessive heat of the sun, nor the excessive bitter cold, (as in Paradise there is no sun and no moon). The shade will be close upon them, and bunches of fruit will hang low within their reach. Vessels of silver and cups of crystal will be passed around amongst them, crystal-clear, made of silver. They will determine the measure of them according to their wishes. They will be given a cup (of wine) mixed with Zanjabeel, and a fountain called Salsabeel. Around them will (serve) boys of perpetual youth. If you see them, you would think they are scattered pearls. When you look there (in Paradise) you will see a delight (that cannot be imagined), and a Great Dominion. Their garments will be of fine green silk and gold embroidery. They will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give them a pure drink."
[Quran 76:12-21]

"And those foremost (In Tawheed and obedience to Allah and His Messenger in this life) will be foremost (in Paradise). They will be those nearest to Allah in the Gardens of Delight. A multitude of those (the foremost) will be from the first generation (who embraced Islam) and a few of those (the foremost) will be from the later (generations). They will be reclining, face to face, on thrones woven with gold and precious stones. They will be served by immortal boys, with cups and jugs, and a glass from the flowing wine, from which they will have neither any headache, nor any intoxication. They will have fruit from which they may choose, and the flesh of fowls that they desire. There will be Houris with wide, lovely eyes (as wives for the pious), like preserved pearls, a reward for deeds that they used to do. They will hear no vain or sinful speech (like backbiting, etc.) but only the saying of: Salam, Salam, (greetings of peace). And those on the Right Hand, who will be those on the Right Hand? They will be among thorn-less lote-trees among Talh (banana trees) with fruits piled one above another, in long-extended shade, by constantly flowing water, and fruit in plenty, whose season is not limited, and their supply will not be cut off. They will be on couches or thrones raised high. Verily, We have created for them (maidens) of equal age, loving (their husbands only). For those on the Right Hand."
[56:10-38]

"Verily, the dwellers of Paradise that Day, will be busy in joyful things. They and their wives will be in pleasant shade, reclining on thrones. They will have therein fruits (of all kinds), and all that they will ask for. (It will be said to them): "Salamun" (Peace be on you), a Word from the Lord, Most Merciful."
[Quran 36:55-58]

(Source: http://www.shariahprogram.ca/articles/paradise-heaven-life-after-death.shtml)

Can you imagine?

Seriously made me cryy. Please Allah, let me be one of those on the Right Hand.

Happy.

And in those moments
The world shined
The birds whistled
The breeze danced
around her body
That smile on her lips
took it's place.
Everything was right,
And the world was
Beautiful.
And most of all,
she was
Happy.

Day 8 - A photo of you taken recently.

AHH. Just realized the elocution is tomorrow. I MEAN WHAT KIND OF ELOCUTION ISSS THISS, I'VE ONLY HAD LIKE TWOO REHEARSALSSS!!! I miss the old English Department Stafff. ANYWAY.

I showed them two poems Entrances And Exits and Ramblings of the Mind, already learnt the Entrances and Exits one, but they said the Ramblings of the Mind would suit better, and I haven't even learnt that one. :/ So long :o Grr why did I have to write sucha long poem =/ OH AND when I was reciting that one in front of them they said I had a British accent YAYYYYYYY I don't think that's true though xD But Hoor agreed with the teacher so idk , and when Ms Mahjabeen told 'em I wrote it, one teacher was like you remind me of Hermoine, and I was like Oooo-kay, LOL, NO. (To myself, ofcourse). ANYWAY.

I've shortened the Ramblings of the Mind & Heartening of the heart, to thiss:

Ramblings of the mind, Heartening of the heart.

Shadowy glances, hanging heads, anticipating doom,
In every nook and corner, those tales of misery loom.
Some try to keep the faith, but everything falls apart,
These shaken sobs are the sounds of a breaking heart.

The roads are so twisted and theres a long way ahead,
Heavy hearts, heavy eyes, every breath inhaled with dread.
Some look for possibilities, believing in keeping hope,
Some wish to avoid the reality, some wish to just elope.

Constantly reminded of how it should have been,
'Could's and 'should's and 'would's are sprouting from within.
So I may have stumbled & fell, I may have stood my ground,
But the stumbling and the falls just keep coming around.

I cannot see what is blinding me, because I'm losing hope,
I cannot see the power that will help me climb this slope.
Something is not right because I see those smiles shrink.
So I ponder about a different side, I now start to think.

This tale is just a story of another house in a city,
In just another country, that no one would care to pity.
Just one tale of misery, of thousands that are there,
In your mind, pestering the world, they are everywhere.

Not me alone, its not just me having to face my fears.
Misery haunts the world of people far and near.
And then I think about how its no reason to not smile,
Fear and sadness won't make my life one bit worthwhile.

Then something whispers to me gently in my ear,
The words start to make sense as I begin to hear.
Its like my heart speaking gently to my mind,
Slowly releasing the toxic feelings that had been confined.

My heart whispers: Get up, get going, because you're better than the worse,
You're not alone, you hold your hands with the entire universe.
They all think they go through the worse life can get,
But there are people who would die for these kind of upsets.

So even though I'm breaking down, even though I'm lost
Even though life is complicated, and some things cost,
I'll make a choice to be thankful through all thick and thin,
Not think about how it is and how it should have been.

And even though the walls of this house are falling down,
I won't let them fall, and I will stay my ground.
And even though some hearts are breaking beyond repair,
There's someone waiting to fix them up - someone, somewhere.

I cannot change now what is done, it was what fate had brought,
And even bigger than my problems, is my ever lasting God.
There are going to be last dusks, there will be last dawns
But time won't stop ticking and life will go on.

Oh shizz. Need ta learn this. Asap.

Free me from these thoughts.

Free me from these thoughts of mine
Erase them from my brain
Nothing but regret and anguish
Nothing but the pain.
I always lose my timetables whenever I make them and then end up not following themmm!!!! =/ So Imma make one here and then update it with passing days, so you know, I have more of a initiative to do it. =p

"There's a hero,
if you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are,
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
The sorrow that you know
will melt awayy."

God, this song brings back so many memories. =)

Stars.

A shower of stars, they fall from the sky,
They fall, they crash, but they don't die,
And even though some shine so bright,
They hurt, they fall from such great heights.

I stand here dancing in the night
Shining with all these stars so bright.

And even though they fall and even though they crash,
They give me all the light that nothing could ever match.
'Cause even though some things can come crashing down,
They give more light than they ever have, down here on the ground.

I stand here dancing in the night
Shining with all these stars so bright.

Little Soldier.

He wakes up in the morning,
Used to the sounding blasts,
Used to the raging bullets that
Fly like a game of darts.
He is used to the fear that grasps
Seeping through his bones
He lives today, but he knows
Tomorrow he might wont.
Labeled for what he does not do
Blamed for their mistakes
That little soul, he's facing fears
That would surely make you shake.
The blood, the cries, the haunting screams,
They are a part of life,
The walls he is enclosed into,
Are closing into his mind.
The eyes outside, they watch for him,
They laugh as he stumbles and fall,
Get up, little soldier, don't you fear,
You're braver than them all.
One day you'll grow up and see the truth
One day you will be free
The innocence in the pain you bear
Is a pain thats part of me.
Grow up, little soldier, drive them out,
This is your land, your destiny,
He watches over you everyday
One day He'll make you free.
Little soldier, I envy you,
You'll die with such pride
You'll run free above, no pain shall touch,
In heaven you shall abide.

I honestly never got it. Why would you invade a country and then inflict all the cruelty on the children that never even do anything. Why would you inflict such cruelty on innocent citizens, and when they try to defend themselves they're labeled as 'terrorists.' Makes me cry, how their destroying the future of so many children. I don't even get why they're on war in Iraq. How would you justify killing so many brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers? Makes no sense. Not to mention how cruel it is in the first place. And they call THEM terrorists?

THIS. >>>>



Sorry, just had to let it out.

Revival.

A rumble of clouds,
They look up from
their circle of prayer,
The land is barren,
Not a flower in sight.
But a rumble of clouds
And
slowly
Little droplets
start to fall from the sky.
The faces lit up,
the drops fall on the ground,
The cracks in the soil
They mix into each other
The soil is wet
And the faces are wet
And the tears are wet
But this time they come
because they're overjoyed
The land sees rain.
The water
washes the pain away
Quenching thirsts,
Washing down the worries
Blooming flowers.

Revival.

A rose to remember.

A rose sprouted
In this barren land
And though left unwatered
It blooms
Though left uncared for
It's still as beautiful as ever
And even though so many
Have tried to pluck it out
With every effort
It's roots grow stronger
And even though it will die
Soon enough
The fragrance gives the world
A rose to remember,
Even through it's thorns.

In my dream today.

A lady comes up to me as I leave my room and says, "Don't make someone too much of a center of attention for yourself, it's called jihad-bin-nafs (fighting your desires), and remain careful."

She must have repeated atleast two times before I woke up.

Dear self, please listen to this lady. :(

Solo.

So low, the winds that now whistle,
So low, the music in my heart,
So low, the ground I now walk upon,
So low, this journey began.
Solo, this journey began.

So low, the mounds of happiness,
So low, the trenches of fears,
So low, the abyss of raging oceans,
So low, I sink into the sea.
Solo I sink into the sea.

So low, I'll drown in my own worries
So low, this ceiling of hope,
So low it began, so low it does end,
Solo the journey did end.

Politely asked.

Politely asked,
"How do you feel today?"
She smiles,
Widely,
"Fine, thankyou"
When inside,
Her insides are falling apart,
The bars on her heart,
And a voice screaming to let out,
A throbbing head,
Thoughts of magnitude and
Of nature you cannot fathom,
A force within
Battling with itself
And losing it's own war
A struggle inside,
Raging screams,
So loud that they drown inside,
So piercing that they
pierce right through the heart,
All on the verge to burst out,
But she conceals it with a smile,
And a few words,
And they walk away,
Believing her,
Blinded to the sights within,
Deaf to the screams
that they can't hear.

Happy End.

Every happy ending
Begins with a distress
So here I am waiting
I'm having to confess
Take me with you far away
Where my smile will stay to last,
Take me home, take me where
Time doesn't move too fast.
Be that story I am waiting for
Be my happy end,
Set me free and take me where
I'll have that smile to lend.

Bleeding heart.

My heart, it tears,
And the blood is the ink
On the paper
I write on.

Smile with me.

Smile with me,
Come, let's be free,
It's a beautiful life outside.

Day 5 - A letter to your crush.

Dear You,

Please never change.

Love,
Me.

Let's dream through this nightmare.

Let's dream through this nightmare.
Distant cries and hounding screams,
Fear is bursting out the seams,
Let's dream, dream, let's dream,
My dear,
Let's dream through this nightmare.

Let's dream through this nightmare.
Shaken hearts, what does this mean?
Something blocks these lighting beams,
Let's dream, dream, let's dream,
My dear,
Let's dream through this nightmare.

Let's dream through this nightmare.
That pure, red blood now so unclean,
The right in wrong, it intervenes,
Let's dream, dream, let's dream,
My dear
Let's dream through this nightmare.

Let's dream through this nightmare.
The beating hearts once so serene,
Now contemplating what could have been,
Let's dream, dream, let's dream,
My dear
Let's dream through this nightmare.



Merely never.

Your memories
Those fantasies
The smiles we shared
The way you cared
How the burdens we beared
How our present fared
And your memories,
Those fantasies
They're fading to merely never
And they'll haunt me for forever.

Surah Hashr.

Heard this during the elocution rehearsal today. It was so compelling, made me want to cry, so I asked the girl after she had rehearsed in front of the teachers what Surah from the Quran it was, and she told me it was from Surah Hashr, so I went online today, and read the whole translation and it was beautiful. Posting it here as a reminder for myself more than anyone.

"20. Not equal are the dwellers of the Fire and the dwellers of the Paradise. It is the dwellers of Paradise that will be successful.

21. Had We sent down this Qur'ân on a mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself and rending asunder by the fear of Allâh. Such are the parables which We put forward to mankind that they may reflect .

22. He is Allâh, than Whom there is Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He) the All-Knower of the unseen and the seen (open). He is the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

23. He is Allâh than Whom there is Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He) the King, the Holy, the One Free from all defects, the Giver of security, the Watcher over His creatures, the All-Mighty, the Compeller, the Supreme. Glory be to Allâh! (High is He) above all that they associate as partners with Him.

24. He is Allâh, the Creator, the Inventor of all things, the Bestower of forms. To Him belong the Best Names . All that is in the heavens and the earth glorify Him. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."

Mine.

If there were three million pearls in the sea,
Yours would be the only one that'd shine.
If there were a thousand people in this place,
You'd be the only one I'd call mine.

Day 4: A picture of you taken over ten years ago.

This change of state.

Shuffle that deck, play out the cards,
These fantasies aren't here to last,
You may win and you may loose,
But it's not a matter of what you choose,
These winds will take you to far out lands,
Much farther than you ever planned.
Written in stone, both luck and fate,
The future moulds, you'll take the bait,
Fear not, my friend, this change of state,
For prayers can change the worst of fate.

We'll be free.

This story takes new twists
Everyday
And when the book is closed,
When your book is closed,
Will you be happy with what you've reaped?
I fear not, because what is true,
is true,
And these deeds you do,
Your pleasure will not last,
And eventually
You will regret.
You will have to regret.
This book is open,
But you do not read.
And follow what is not yours,
What will never be yours.
You think you win
But you fail,
miserably so,
And you will find out,
Once you see
the reality,
When there's nothing you
can do.
In the end, you will want
to pay heed,
but you won't be able to.
And that will be the moment
The moment,
We're waiting for,
'cause you'll be in regret
And us?
We'll be free.

Victory.

In these moments,
my smile denotes that
the tears have been falling
But they did not defeat me.

That heart.

Fix it,
Bandage it,
Soothe it,
Comfort it,
Ease it,
And renew it
once again,
And always
in the end
it is subject
to someone else.

Day 3: Your favourite movie.


"God don't move that mountain....give me strength to climb it."
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.

I needed that!

But here we are.

It's strange,
Because here we are
Strolling along the same paths,
So many have trodden upon,
So many flashing lights,
So many warning signs,
And yet we move along
this bridge that won't
stay together for too long,
It will collapse,
But here we are,
we're travelers of the same road,
Loving all that is broken,
Loving all that is lost,
And loving all that
Will never be.
But here we are.

DAY 2: Make a bulleted list of everything that happened in your day

  • Woke up for Maths extra class at 8, ofcourse with that usual daily episode of Baba constantly talking to my asleep self in a REALLY loud voice to get up until the point when my asleep self can't take it and eventually has to get up.
  • Got ready, packed my bag, got all my things together, frantically searched for my sweater and my abaya, finally found them at the last moment, gobbled up my breakfast, and then shouted across the house to Ammi that I was leaving.....only to find out the car wasn't even available.
  • Panicked. Called the driver, apparently he had headed off with Atto Phuppo for the hospital because pf Phuppa Jan's by pass, so I waited patiently for the car to get here, still panicking...but patiently.
  • The car came, I climbed aboard, but ofcourse Ammi has this fear someone will hijack me on my way to school so she sent Aani bhai with me, and we made short, awkward, pointless conversation in the car.
  • Reached school just in time, went upstairs, Hoor was waiting for me to unwrap my hijab so she could see my hair and suddenly everyone was looking at me and then it was so awkward and then I showed them my hair and then they exclaimed and then it was awkward again and then Ms Qurat came.
  • Laughed at stupid, pointless things during Geometry with Hoor. "Hilariously funny," as she sayyys. :p
  • Realized in the middle of class that I'd told Ammi to pick me at 1:00 even though we were off at 12:00 and panicked again but then calmed down.
  • During off time everyone was leaving and then suddenly Ammi was at the gate and I was like yaayy. Met Ms Shama halfway down the stairs and it was awkward because we'd met last night at the wedding, and yeah.
  • We had to drop Hassan bhai at the airport, I said goodbye and allah hafiz.
  • We stopped at Grocer N More and Ammi bought zeera and salt and I bought prince kay biscuits and chips and juice and a gumm.
  • Went back home, responded to Kat's inbox and was lazy until 3:00 pm when I finally realized I should change my uniform.
  • So I bathed, changed, went on the computer again, responded to other shizz on facebook, posted on blogger and tumblr and stufff.
  • Debated with Baba and Ammi how I did NOT need a tutor but Baba wouldn't understand that it was too much pressure on me!
  • THE TUTOR CAME. -__- Two hour classs. D= Obnoxious-ness.
  • Hahahah then the tutor started on Baba, and I just laughed in the background and cracked up as he bored Baba, and Baba was just sitting there trying to get the conversation to end, but he just talked and talked and talked and I laughed and laughed and laughed and then I said to Baba now you know what I go through every day.
  • Had dinner, Atto phuppo came from the hospital, we ate oranges togethher, and then I went on the computer again and responded to couple of messages on facebook.
  • Fought over a muffin with Shazra baji.
  • Ate a packet of sweet and sour jelllyy.
  • Talked to Aati baji on phone and she said regarding my facebook profile picture, "Where is your pandan?" Hahahahahahaha.
  • Sent pointless self made poetry texts to Sarah and she sent pointless self made poetry texts back to me.
  • Watched everyone admire that photo I took of Aleeza and Baba. B)
  • Flashed back on the wedding yesterday.
  • Planned out my ninja nerd mode in detail and divided my subjects according to days.
  • Made a random blogger post about the happenings of my dayy.

Your light.

Even though the Sun sets down,
And it's lost, beyond your sight,
Don't give up just now my dear,
Don't you lose without a fight.
These darkened lands are weary,
They are tired from despair,
Of breaking hearts and throbbing heads,
They have had their share.
But don't you worry now my dear,
Here comes the light again, '
'Cause in this darkness, it's Your light
that will free you from your pain.

Day 1: Introduce Yourself.

Hi, my name is Aaisha, and mostly people misspell it and write it as Aisha, and it pisses me off, because even when I've written AAISHA with DOUBLE As on my admission form, then why would you write it with a single A in the attendance register, and as a result, EVERYWHERE. So it is a delicate matter.

I was born on 18th February, 1996 in Karachi, and I'm 14 right now. I find strange things interesting; things like the blueness of the sky, or the shape of a cloud, or something like a blanket heaped into a mess. It's hard to explain.

I am extremely quiet in school, I only just smile and laugh alot, but it's almost like a personality disorder because I'm something completely different in school, and something completely different when I'm with the people who know me best. I can act downright crazy, and I'm higher than mount everest at home, and mostly dying inside in school. I'm not popular or anything, and I don't have many people I can call my friends, but the ones I do have are so amazing that I don't wish for anything else.

I'm not much of a girl, and I've never painted my nails and don't really wear make up or anything. I have a ridiculously less amount of clothes I can wear, but I don't really care. I'm always afraid to try new things, especially icecreams. And I absolutely SUCK at sports, and I'm never good at anything.

I can never say no to people, and I can never stand up for myself. I've let too many people trod upon me, but I'm living and learning. I write because it's the only medium I have to express myself, and it's the only thing that keeps me going. It's the only thing that has been there when everyone and everything else disappeared.

The people I call my best friends are downright crazy, but they make up half of my life. They're more like sisters, and I like how I can be my complete crazy self around them and they still choose to be my friends. I love my family too, I don't think I could live without Ammi and Baba, and my brother and my three sisters and my three nieces. I have lots of aunts and uncles who I love very, very much for how they have been there through it all and helped me grow up. My life would not be the same without all my cousins and I love them all.

Islam is a huge part of my life and I'm so glad Allah has chosen Islam for me, because I'd be so lost without it. I wouldn't have a life, basically. I am extremely lucky for this guidance and this light Allah has shown me and that has guided me through every single aspect of my life.

I plan to make a difference, someday, Inshallah. Through whatever I do, wether its engineering, wether its writing, wether it's through advertising. One day, I will change some life for the better, Inshallah ofcourse.

I'm basically a nerd and have been all my life, ever since I got 3rd position in 2nd grade, and now I strive everyday to keep those expectations up to mark.

Life isn't easy sometimes, and there are alot of trials every day, I don't have it easy but no one does. But I definitely have it alot easier than most people and I am extremely grateful to Allah for that.

I'm striving to be a better person everyday, and I hope one day that introductions I write about myself are going to be much more interesting than this one.

Stolen from Kaaat. ^___________^

For every good dream.

And for every good dream to come by,
You've got to sleep and ignore the world
and the reality for a while.
Bro and dad home for the weddding, we just had a three hour dinner, everyone talks so much. xD I love when they're home. =)

Bring me back.

Bring me back the light in me
You took away with you
Bring me back my memories
They went before I knew.

Bring those smiles along with you,
Lost them somewhere along the track,
Bring yourself to me and please
Be sure to bring me back.

I have wondered.

I have wondered,
What your smile hides,
And what your tears are about.
I have wondered
What it is like
To keep going
Without any destination.
I have wondered
What it is like
To be breaking down
So much that you have
to revive yourself.
I have wondered
what it is like
To comfort you and tell you
It will be alright.
And I have wondered
If these paths
were never meant to cross.

Help.

I find myself telling me,
Time and time again,
There's no reason for this torture,
No reason for this pain.

Don't let them get too much to you,
This brain keeps telling me,
But in my heart I feel what's true,
It's something you can't see.

Give me a reason to smile, I say,
I tell that to myself,
And maybe it's not you and I'm
the one who needs the help

Just the way it works.

I have learnt that
Sometimes
The things that make
You the most happy
Hurt you
the most.
It's strange
to say the least
Because for every fear
There is comfort
But for every comfort
Is a fear.
And I've learnt
that sometimes
the things you hold on to
are the ones you need
to let go.
It's terrifying, really,
But it is what is
Right.
I have also learnt that
sometimes,
What I detest
Is really for
the best.
And that's
just the way
it works.
