DEAR BELIEVER



I don't know what your battles are
Or the size of your seeping scars
Or how often you find yourself
dancing with mars

I don't know how high your clouds fly
Or the name of the Rainbow from which
You carve out your soul's dye
Or the amount of times you've become the sky

All I know is
as I walk upon the earth
I drown in the dazzle of diminishing days
As nights nibble away at the
niceties I knit for my stay

I know
That whispers weaken
my ķnees when I'm upright
And lighten the deeds
that I thought to be steadfast superfast

I know
That deep inside
I constantly fight
A one I-yed enemy
That constantly tries
To enslave me to a slave
that constantly captures my worship
encaging it in a cave
Void of light

I know that
Distractions drum falls
into my path tirelessly daily
and that Desire's fire
has a roasting roar
That turns to ashes
the parts of me that I adore

But a phenomenal fortune flowers
At my doorstep once more
A scented crescent sent
to cleanse my core
Of all that I testify to abhore
Beyond every shadow of doubt
this fragrance doth the
withered radiance restore
A serenity that calmly cleanses the core
A heavenly healing harmony
that hearts the catastrophic chaos
And everything that it made sore
So that dormant chambers
can come to life once more

But just as I bathed in
the light of your fullness
Just as I gorged and gulped
At your wholesome goodness
Just as I sought in your eyes
A single glance of love
That exceeds the explosive excitement
Of a thousand glances

Time sought to tear us apart
As her hands rushed to turn to art
This aching, breaking heart
Of your lover as you depart
An immortal portrait, her deepest art
Your departure has left me with a deep heart
There aren't enough oceans to fill this part
Of my existence to prevent
me from falling apart

I might never be as vibrant
As I was with love beside me
But you see
My love has left me
with more than just molding memories
Love has left me
With a trove of truthful deeds

But knowing me
I'll probably choose to rue
Instead of digging into these treasures
In which love taught me the amorous
pronunciation of the purest pleasures
A portion of delicious delights
That cause the soul to soar
to The Throne of The Over All
Who made The Beloved
The only Door
The way of the Over Soul
The Melodious Mercy

In love's treasury
Are violet lights
Purple perfumed prostrations
Placed lovingly repetitively
upon the earth's face
Over successive nights
Beneath the lyrical lights of guiding stars
That melt the mind in a myriad of meditations
That map out animated constellations
a maze of mirrors for the soul's silhouette
A sighing sight that beautifues
the breath of the earth
As the verses that venus versed
In the name of the universe
Became prose, a hearse for forgetfulness
O! what a beautiful ascension
Did love teach with every heartful mention
Of the sacred seven sentences
to the seventh dimension

In love's treasury
Are monumental monuments
Marvelling moments
In opulent orchids with
colossal circles of
fruit bearers and wine makers
As we watched wondrous rivers flow
A river of surreal recitations
And a river riveting remembrances
love and I wined and dined
To please love's palate
An attempt to satiate
Her aquired taste
to praise The Most praised
By The Possessor of All praise
our faces became erased
Our beings became the be-ing
That is love.

And in love's treasury
Is a luminous lattice of letters
Conferred upon the un lettered
Luminary to lead existence
To the exit of darkness, an entrance to light
A Lantern that made bright
the darkness of a thousand plus nights
As love and I surfed on the
The oceanic waves of The Over Womb
The vibrational emissions from The Esscence
A flowing forest of flowering fragrances
That praises, protects and sanctifies
the kaleidoscopic souls
entrusted with
condensed couplets of earthward
celestial wombs and the keys to heaven's
doors at her majestic feet
Certainly Destiny diced doom
And fed it to the fools
that deny her florescent feats

Iove and I
Are like the land and the sea
She showers gems on upon my shore
She never ceases to pour
fine pressed wines from the vineyard
Of her Lord's Awe
To better the lover's
Love from whence he loved before
Rekindling the flame
That dances at the mention of love's name

Ramadan my sweet love
Return once more
So that I can love as love
Once more

Till then
I will embellish
The pain of seperation
With treasures that you
Worded upon my being

The poetry of our infinity

LOVE DYED

She said:

Love dyed my heart
with the height of the sky
He places playful pigments
in my mind that pour out
the white of my smile
He laces my heart beats with
red dream-like  ribbons that I love to untie
His gaze made me open my palms
So I could let forever fly
further and further away
from the beautiful breaths
that colour this marvelous moment
The glitter of his goodness goldens
the light of love I stand in
I feel bright as I breathe
my motions are majestic
like the soft serene scenery
of sunsets and sunrises
If I am earth
Then he is the sun that animates the wild
And when I become night
He is the fragrant light
That dazzles time between the
Spaces in my heart


He said:

Love died
She has left my laughs limping
and sentenced my lips to sorrow’s 
tortured tenses
Who ever thought that loneliness
would alienate me to Ache’s 
acrimonious archives?
Who would’ve thought that the loss of love
would bury me alive?
That pain would be built from the
bricks of a paradise I dwelt in?
Who would of thought that
every part of me would feel
dead no matter how much
air I breath in
No matter how many cries 
my soul would breath out?
Who would of thought
that love would weigh heavier than sin?

My breaths mumble as I mourn
a lively love stolen from my embrace
I have been widowed by Happiness
bewitched by what I desired ad absurdum
Dressed in the darknesses 
of a sinking sadness
I layer my loss in thought after thought
I drown in my own tears
and yet I still have oceans to cry
I never was good with good byes

It is only my skin that lives
For my heart drums 
the silence of death


She said:

Love died
I left him standing where he lies
and in the blink of an eye
My heart was empty inside
as a deep sense of betrayal 
began to multiply
Into countless whys
In search of the rotting reasons 
why I was not wise
Life began to tic anti clockwise
I became the laughing stock
of the sane and the wise
For I now realise
That every word that love watered
my germinating heart with 
was not love
but the disguise
Of  a heart Theif
That breaks into hearts
to break what hearts heart
then fill his heart
with the havoc he arts
To smash what is kind
grabbing onto whatever 
treasure he can find
His favourite victims are the blind
How could I have been so blind? 
Now I live between heart beats
from a heart with more stings 
than a behive

The world watched me 
becoming a wallowing weeping willow
They all look into my eyes and say
It might be best if you leave it behind
I guess they don't know
that the death that I've died too
leaves nothing behind 

Now where will I find
The courage to climb
Out of my fall from cloud ninety nine

for though winged
From this pit of self pity
I am unable to fly


He said:

Love dyed
My lips with the warmth 
of countless kisses
Her colours cling to the core of my soul
Painting peace upon 
the fabric of my be-ing
I am her Master-Peace
The sacred spaces of our inner peace
Have been pieced together so beautifully
It puzzles sober sights
Yet ignites every sky lantern lit for love
over countless nights

I fall to the heaven at her feet
Drenched in the depth of her deep
I melt away in the metaphysics 
of our love leap
that is felt in every nano second
of our pellucid poetic penning pulse

She bows before me
Passionately Purple with my praise
and for every letter of light 
that falls from her face
I raise her a degree higher 
above my kingdom
That it may kneel in her praise
A status that no thing can erase
from a love that time cannot deface
A love space cannot embrace

I am the green in her leaves
She is the radiance of my light
I shine upon her because 
I am her dancing desire
From her beauty 
my sight does not retreat
I am the clouds in her summer sky
She is the rain that falls 
Calmly upon my chest
I am the cold bitter winter
She is the tree whose  brown 
falls to ground
Knowing that soon 
I will clothe her again
In the sweetness 
of my scent-full spring
And to the billows of her beauty
My nest of melodies will sing
Tunes tailored for infinity 

So you see
We are a love that cannot die
For it is our passion that 
pours without pause
into the pigments with which love
So willingly dyes

Our intrigue that inspires
episodes of lovers throughout time
Our tender touches that write the lines
Upon which poets rhyme
and sharpen the edges 
at which war weaned warriors die
We are the stretched out branches 
from where birds learn to fly
We are the nostalgic images 
sketched like magic in the mind's eye
Yes the seeing of your seeing 
is her and I 
Within the frame our form
Drowns every delight

We are the spinning spear 
with which hearts conquer
Our secrets shape 
the skies to which 
songbirds sing too

Our love dyes
The seekers with rainbows of life
We are The Lavender Lovesphere 
that the lovers lose their selves too

Ours is a love
That dissolves all life forms 
in liquid light
A turquoise transformation 
from life to life

Because those tied to 
transcendent truth forms 
that dye as they die
Know that Death’s desired dye
is the dimension to 
which all dimensions die
A destiny that 
the glow of no galaxy can deny

Stand upon this
O love lyric
Always Remember that
Only letters without
Love’s dye, die.
And those that die to love
become the cosmic colour of her dye

8280 Days


In the light of the night
Rise and fight!
The army that is not in sight
but blinds you from true light
binding you to an awful plight!

Cut with the sword of salutation
upon perfection
The owner of benediction
The mercy of all mercies
The sky of a most illuminant light
The crown of creation
The antidote of damnation
The possessor of praise
Who did the veils of falsehood raise!
The trumpet on Truth’s lips
The author of virtue
The sculptor of humility
The fragrance of all messengers
That blossomed in Time’s infinite garden
The splendour of God!

The slave that gave
Every split moment of his existence
To his Master unto
his noble grave
And Beyond it too he’s still a slave

And what a blessed
path to God hath he paved
For those who desire to be saved
With God’s pleasure on every step engraved
A path that sealed all others

This scented seal must be celebrated!
In beautiful garments of ecstasy
And couplets of supremacy to his Excellency

 Lame is that tongue that refrains
 that ear that has not heard it knows no melody
 that eye that hath not seen it has not seen day light
 And that heart that denies it hath tied a knot with Tragedy

The soul that perishes in his praise
Will in the majestic countenance of its beloved be raised
And from the belly of the spitting fire saved
Where agony and pain is multiplied and replayed

They will be lifted (Those that praise him)
To a lofty height that Al Furqaan hath eloquently explained
A marvellous abode
The rightful retreat of every righteous soul
Where every pleasure and leisure is whole

Celebrate and praise!
He that delivered
the complete Message in 8280 days

Enduring brutal torment and unbearable disgrace
Making servitude to God his only place!
The one unshaken by falsehood’s quake
Revealing truth in every space
until injustice vanished without a trace

He who brought light upon the world’s face
Till ignorance hath had its taste
of a tantalizing truth that will never fade
A Mercy that ices the flames of that bewildering blaze

And here sits a helpless face
Hypnotized by the gimmicks that
My unruled self embrace
To your example a complete disgrace
Of your ways in me I found no trace
My love for you in my heart is somehow misplaced

Yet I yearn to see your blessed face
I never conceal my fondness of you
And at times I pause and ponder over you
Be it little or insignificant
Be you near or be you distant

I know that every seed must some day germinate
I pray that this one grows soon rather than late

Here sits a useless form
Towards your reflection it knows no haste
It flings every millionth of every moment to waste
It has given fool’s gold the chase

And yet I yearn to embrace
you and see your radiant face

My desire to follow your every step
To know you at loves greatest depth
To praise you profusely in the rhyme of poetry
In the charismatic chaos of its melody
And in the calmness of its humming harmony

And at the pinnacle of my longing
I come to know that all my yearning
Can not reflect what is in my heart for you
But if this is all I am able to do
Then this pauper presents to you
An insignificant gift to you

For only your Master to whom you are true
Can praise you in a manner most fitting to you
So may God Bless you and Praise you
In Blessings and Praises that are most fitting to you

And so I look
At he who took
Your smile
A smile worthwhile
And so I look
At he who took
Your meditative gaze
Your gentle eyes

And so I look
At he who took
Your tender ways
What beautiful ways
And so I look
At he who took
Your soft walk
What a wonderful walk

And so I look
At he who took
Your speech
What comforting speech

And so I look
At this Arrow of light
From your bow of truth
Whose tapering tip hit your mark
As he rejuvenated your teachings
with a glowing spark
And so I look
At your sword
An edge of knowledge
That petrified ignorance

And so I look
At a soul that shook
A napping global village
By sound ways of The Greatest Book

A heart of generosity
An unmatched reviver
An image of the receiver
An exceptional leader

A complete teacher
That taught tolerance not terror
That spread peace not war

The Guide to Guidance
The Caller to repentance
The Sultan of God’s Remembrance
Imam Hassan Cisse, overflowing with Brilliance
and remarkable radiance

May he be lifted
To a most honourable station
May he remain a vivid image in History’s contemplation
May his way become the flame
Of every disciples determination

May we inherit his manner of meditation
May his footsteps become ours
Till the promised hour
Though hearts are sour
And saturated with sorrow
At separation from Islam’s Flower
Whose fragrance all will know at the nearing hour
Islam’s over shadowing tower
Whose height all will know at the final hour

Soul’s that follow
Have not forgotten the hour
When deeds will be accounted
Where the lovers will be with the beloved!

O God Bless our Master MUHAMMED
The opener of what was closed
And who is the seal of what has gone before
He who makes the Truth Victorious by the Truth
The guide to Thy straight path
And Bless his household as is due
Immense is his position and grandeur.                               

 “My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world’s most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be

   questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the secular and religious   levels. It is probable that the relative influence of Muhammad on Islam has been larger than the combined influence of Jesus Christ and St. Paul on Christianity . . . It is this unparalleled combination of secular and religious influence which I feel entitles Muhammad to be considered the most influential single figure in human history.”Michael Hart in ‘The 100, A Ranking of the Most Influential  Persons in History,’ New York, 1978.  (source: http://www.cyberistan.org).
