Crying cake crumbles from catasrophic negligence

Tears tearing taunted chinawear teatering on island's edge to shattered fate on tile

Fork scrapes fine scruffs forming scaly granite

Uneven plateau rocks raging remnants to insanity

"Why skip time to eat before rot, pompous promt-not?"
                                                  was the cry

La Illaha Illa Allah

It was the most intense moment of weakness
And I just barely asked for strength
I only wanted a pinch of guidance
But not enough to deter me from my intended path
I wanted to attain an ultimate state of success
A short-lived meaningless success

Deep down, I wanted to be removed
I wanted to be flushed clean
But the temptation was so deep
And the echoes died by the time they reached my mind

I stood by the door, hearing footsteps
The army has arrived
The subtle u-turn starting as a curve
My mind became numb
Listening to my limbs
To God's will taking over
I walked over to the bookshelf of wisdom
My hand, without purpose, reason, drive, or logic reached
And beheld a book, "Purification of the Heart"
Deciding to open it, magically the topic was precisely what I needed
But did not want
Stop Read Keep Reading Don't Stop Keep Reading
If-I-put-it-down-I-may-lose
I will lose if I end this

God stopped me
He stopped me
He guided me, away from calamity
Without me uttering a word asking for it
He just did

Verily,
God will guide whomsoever He wills

The Greatest Love

Butterflies flutter in someone else's pit
I witness the explosions but am not invloved
I am engulfed but untouched
I can stand here for hours, feeling the longing, feeling the burn
    None of it is mine

It is the projection of an inimitable love
On the mind that lacks it
It is the echo of a fairy tale made real
     Made instant

I stand but float
I float but soar
I am torn
      Empathy or mine?

Time tells me,
It was only my mind playing tricks on my heart
I do not love
But I witnessed one of the greatest loves of our time

Nobody knows about it.
If you know about it,
that makes you a nobody.

Highku

High hopes lie low till
          Sudden opening is slight
Spring into action

Theighsed

They told me it would matter how well I did
They said if you fail by standards, you fail in essence
They claimed that to be important, you must not deter from designed paths
and to create your own meant self-destruction
They announced all this under the banner of 'individuality'
but I knew it would only last until being true was no longer a fad
Now I await when this very fad climaxes
and reaching serenity through truth becomes our collective goal
Although when vogue declares the new trend
all will end
and flares will send glaring stares upon the unrelenting

Defining freedom negates it
Dont tell me nudity is freedom
Dont tell me that I am free when im no longer chased by men because I give them what they want without their asking
Dont lie to those who come after me, who have not enough time to think this through
before you bombard them with your images of what should and shouldnt be

Because what I seak is tolerance
I seak understanding of what I wear this for
I need for you to know
That I am fully aware of what I am doing
That I do not follow the whims of fallible humanity
but that I am guided by the greatest force of all
and that He wants what is best for me
So dont tell me I am failing at freedom
Dont tell me that I must conform to be accepted
Dont tell me lies, because my truth sees right through them
