No more fooling

I cursed the curse that cursed you 
This morning
Mother 
Oh how I hate this existence that birthed your narcissism,
My stuck in a loop with it,
And all of the special men that moved me.
I cursed the milk you fed me 
I am still unsure you ever nursed me 
But I sure looked for that affection from all the men that held me
This reality has been crumbling for a while now 
I just wish I find the exist button 
To release myself once and for all 
I keep spiraling in and out,
One end has hope of healing and breaking them toxic patterns
One end takes me deeper in the rabbit hole 
I keep expanding and shrinking 
So does my heart and mind 
And this achy body 
Which keeps craving physical affection like an infant
I keep waiting on the men to mother me 
And I keep mothering all those who dare love me 
What else is there after all that has been said and done
But a never healing mother wound

Curse this reality 
Curse this realm 
God have mercy 
Hear me out 
SOS

The vortex

Hassan ghosted me last year
Raniya died earlier this year
Yasmina's still searching for Home and her pack
And Ali's soul is nowhere to be found from all the spirits 
I'm entangled and entrapped because I dared to love

I'm angry at God
I scream and shout 
In total silence 

Why did you bring Ali to me 
Why did you take him away
Why did you take them all away 
Why did you bring me here 

I'm naive and pathetic today 
I'm not going to pray 
Let me burn
Who said I can rescue me 
Who said I could rescue them 

Let it all burn 
And let us all drown 
Let it all be sucked up 
In this most evil and dark vortex 

If you hear this God 
SOS please 

Here we go again 
Hear us here 
We're calling Home 
I know I am 

Won't you please, 
Take me...

The same fire that heats, burns...

The sun was your heart 
And the warmth of your body
The sun was the fire in your grip 
And the piercing light in your eyes

Today the sun was my lost companion 
For I have lost you, haven't I?
And perhaps I did before even the illusion 
of having you by my side, you firey thing.

I miss you but I miss me too 
I miss us, and the cringiness of it all
Except, it never was that to me.
You've fit in perfectly with my everything 

I only just wished there was a turning down to your anger 
I turned and twirled and whirled to no avail
You lit the damn fire on both us 
I can't say I didn't see it coming 

Today the sun shone through but I kept the curtains drawn
But now I bask in the gentle light and faint warmth of the sunset
I plan on going to the park again soon 
Boy won't I miss you 

I pray to the trees from now to take good care of me when I do 
I pray for all of nature and all that is Godly to take care of your heart 
And for God to please ease your pain and heal your mind
I love you so, precious one.

Until we meet again, if we ever do...

في أمان الله يا أسمر
