I had a desire to be with you.🥀😔

(This is not mine) but I bet you feel this💯

Find your dreams come true
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder

I wonder what it feels to be one of the greats
Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, Sudais
To be a household name like your voice gon' echo from USA to Spain
To witness a Golden Age of Islam in Granada

To be there when Ibrahim was building the Kaaba
To be one of those who first said shahada
To pray feet-to-feet with the Sahaba

If I never had to stress about the bills
If the Shaytan didn't refuse to kneel
Would my brothers even get killed?

What would it feel like if our hearts really healed, for real?
To never struggle waking up for Fajr

If I came from wealth instead of the gutter
Would it change who I am and what I know about sabr?

I'm just sittin' here reflectin' on the things, I wonder, like Means, means, means; wonder
What would I feel if I seen the moon split?
This ain't somethin' that could be explained by scientists

To me, Hamza ibn Abd ul-Muttalib
A true definition of what a lion is
The uncle of the most influential man
The last prophet, whoever walked on these lands
That's Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him

What would it be like to shake his hand?
What would it be like of my mama was able to walk?
If me and my father was able to talk
I ain't really tripping
'Cuz everything is written, and pain is a reason I turn to Allah

What would it feel like if I never touched me a pen?
Would I be down in the dirt? Or probably get locked in the pen
Why worry about what could have been?
It won't miss if it was ever meant

And everybody got a opinion
But don't nobody throw a penny in
What would it feel like if we loved one another?
Treated everybody like the son of our mother
Raised real men like in the Battle of Badr
Instead of being silent when we see the women suffer

Instead of putting down our people we need to help all 'em
So many people gonna say that they love you, how many really legit?

What would it feel like if I had a AP on my wrist?
I bet you, everybody gonna show more respect
True colors gonna show you
Just wait on the tick-tock, time always gonna tell if you genuine, if not
And if the shoe fits, I guess it's a diss
And I don't really care about makin' a hit
What would it feel like if life wasn't like this?

If we could live in peace instead of surviving
What would it feel like if Palestine was really free?
If freedom ain't have a price and it was really free?
What would it feel like if we was really free?
Tears wouldn't run from the river to the sea

What if the arms that should hold you tight
Are the very ones that hurt at night?
What if the hearts that should understand
Are the ones that never reach for your hand?

These men don’t love nobody but themselves

"Gather ye rose-buds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying."

Slowly, slowly, you became the sight my eyes longed for. 🤍

First, you became my life, then my beloved, and eventually, the one my heart calls its own. 🌸

Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare ❤️

If they are truly meant for you, believe that they will find their way to you. 🤍

Work through vs. Let go

" I came with a heart ready to build, not a heart demanding perfection. I believed two different souls could meet halfway, that questions could lead to understanding, and that love meant choosing to learn each other, even when it was difficult. But sometimes, one heart sees a difference as something to work through, while the other sees it as a reason to let go. So I learned that I can offer honesty, patience and a willingness to grow, but I cannot create certainty in someone who is still unsure. And I do not have to become less of myself to be worthy of a love that chooses me with clarity ."
_ Unknown quote _

" جئت بقلب مستعد للبناء، لا بقلب يطلب الكمال .آمنت أن روحين مختلفين تستطيعان أن تلتقيا في منتصف الطريق، وأن الأسئلة قد تقود إلى الفهم، وأن الحب هو أن نختار تعلم بعضنا بعضا، حتى حين يصبح الطريق صعبا. لكنني أدركت أن مايراه قلب اختلافا يستحق أن نتجاوزه معا، قد يراه قلب أخر سببا للرحيل. فتعلمت أنني أستطيع أن أقدم الصدق، والصبر والاستعداد للنمو ، لكنني لا أستطيع أن أزرع اليقين في قلب لا يزال مترددا. ولست مضطرة إلى أن أكون أقل من نفسي، كي أستحق حبا يختارني بوضوح."

May Allah SWT purify our characters, protect our hearts and take us back to Him in the best of health and eman ameen.

How do you ever stop loving someone?

Or do you keep loving them quietly,
hiding the feeling deep within your chest,
where no one else will ever know?

I really wanted it to be you.
Just this once.

God knows how much I wanted you.

I still do.

Whatever You decree is for the best, Allah.
