Poetry is a language Of powerful thoughts and imagery, it can strike in the heart of man, it can shape lives and actions. Then can it not be used to enhance to the finder qualities of man? Rather than providing shallow enjoyment? And promoting the baser instincts? If I was a poet, I would like my words To compell the soul, To pursue the true pupose of existence. Oh, what wouldn’t I give to go on collecting my reward, Beyond this life....

Born Muslim

20-06-05

Born Muslim,
My soul bound to the Creator,
From the beginning of time.

I open my eyes in a strange world,
It teaches set things, to be silently complied,
Expectations are forced on me.

The tentacles of life tighten around me,
Blocking my sight, suppressing my conscience,
Unwilling to let go.

My identity diffused within the rubbles of existence,
Life’s direction off-course,
I no longer know why I live.

My soul is withered, thirsty,
Searching for the way,
To be reborn and live again in God’s way.

I don't care much for poems that rhyme. You'll notice my poems are unique in that some parts rhyme, others don't. ANd these poems weren't written now, last year and not at once.

helloo. came across across your poems- this is a different anonymous by the way- and i think it adds a nice quality when a poem isn't all glossed over with perfect rhyming patterns.. your work is really something beautiful.. you've put nicely into words alot of my thoughts and reflections :) keep writing.

that's exaclty what I think if I read over my writings, they don't sound like poetry. I guess they're just my own perspectives
