Black Horse

The Horse black as coal,
Shines like a diamond,
Smooth body, fur like a silk,
Running along the shore,
Creating chills over my shoulder,
Trying to touch it,
Trying to hold it,
Takes me away,
Farther away,
It's majestic powers,
It's perfect tail,
It's furious voice,
Sending hot gushes,
Down my spine,
And I think to myself,
What a beautiful sight to see,
But what a scary sense to feel.

Perfect

Don't you listen to them darlin'
Don't you care,
Because all those voices,
All those noises,
They're scared of you,
Chanting so loud but,
They're scared of you,
Scared of how you get right back up,
Scared of how calmly you deal with it,
Scared of how gracefully you handle their mess,
Scared of what happened was the total opposite of what they thought,
Scared that they couldn't take over you,
Scared of your beautiful strengths,
Scared of your heroic courage,
Scared that you rose above all,
And you, Oh You!
You are amazing,
A wonderful riddle,
A mesmerizing sight,
A precious piece of nature's art,
A striking strength,
You are perfect,
Do you hear that,
You are perfect, just the way you are!

Proudly Presenting: Changing perspectives on Muslim Women

A student in the US made a video for her project, which shows my blog giving out the message that Muslim women are not caged, that we are as free as we should be. I realize this is a greater opportunity than I thought, Social media makes more difference than it seems like, it changes perspectives and thoughts of many. I will try bringing up more positivity and goodness about Muslims and Pakistan so that people would know, we're good folks as normal and as humane as we should be!
