[Sabz]

As salaam u alaikum, well since islamica has been down ive written some new material, here goes. enjoy!

Back around


It’s that spilt moment of truth
that truth that you have been so unaware of
for so long
its been absent from the mind
not even a cent in the heart left of it
apart form a droplet of blood,
deep down in the withering, unseen depth of your body

When does it comes back,
to haunt?
to torture?
Yes the negative mind would think so.
But a simple answer to remind
was unheard of
Remind me of what there is,
in front of me
day in, day out.

Closing my eyes is not enough
Transparent eyelids are what we see through
Everything is visible to the covered eye
Even if it is not to the mind.

Now it’s here I have to welcome it
Absorb it even
But its been gone for so long.
Will I remember how to tend to it?

[Sabz]

Double-minded


Trapped in a mind of consent
I do as told
and told as I do
A nod will take its action
As the action would take a nod

I am the simply innocent
The purity overcastting my eyes
As you look into them
A glazed view hides what’s behind

When the heads are turned
And the minds absent
I wake up
Come out of;
The wilderness of serenity,
The buzz of whistles,
The tone of tranquillity.
I am myself.

The rebel that is oppressed
Learnt of that to whisper in the world
of evil peace.
I am the one that will take all
Just waiting- Contemplating
when to breathe.
