its time to drum life and art into faith into me

I have failed my deen
all that is healthy and smart
i have failed my religion
all that is wise and good
I have failed my deen
all that beautiful and clean
I have failed my talents
all that god gave me to prove
worthy of his choice for me
that i am doing very well
becauuse out of so many other simple humans
he chose me to be better
to have better
to know better

and yet


i choose the untamed
i choose the faulty
i choosethe blind

like blind misery i take the mess
i dont pass the test of believing in islam like i can
like i should
like i fear God's....God's.....God


yes, how many words have i used in the past all amounting to the same meaning


I
do
not
  know
how important
this faith
is



I find condition in the unconditional pain
i think i must have to prove a point of love


I find understanding in the misunderstanding i preach
to cry tears of confused emotions


i find representation in the unrepresentated category of my despair and turmoil bleeding agony
of a life
not
worth i tihnk
living

not becasue it is not a nice life
or a sweet life

but becasue i am running
without losing sin
i am jumping all the wrong obstacles
i am running in the wrong direction

oh how i love to say
oh how i love to be
oh how i wish i could be better


wrte for a better cause
be a better person
think a stronger demand
fulfill an honest dream
commit a beautiful dawn

know a wonderful me
change the insides i disgust
into something i trust

and desire desire all my life

all my wasted life

ya allah
ya allah
ya rahman
ya rahman

What it is...

I see Life like a rose in the ice... beautiful but with cold settings - There are so many incredible things out there - but we always need to fight and perservere against the hardships too... otherwise the cold will win ... and we will wither away.

My imagination has led me to believe in something called 'Sudan Fairytale' -
The fantasy that My country will one day be independant and proud, never selfsish to provide its people with its needs, give freedom and success to all, be forever committed to achieve a prosperous inhabitance to every Sudanese in their own country-

My eyes fail me and I see the truth which I call - 'Khartoum Heartbreak' - This is a theme running through the blog under the 'Khartoum Heartbreak' Poems and whatever else about Sudan conveying broken down love, poor streets and cut off electricity along with a lot of other decays and problems in Khartoum city Life.

But I love my country and so I have no choice but to merge the Pain and the Love as one.

Faith is my heart and I could never do without it hoping in my prayers that I can be someone better always and that God forgives me as I fall in Mistakes through that frozen path of Life...

Sometimes I feel under control with all the too many emotions that run to colour my days and nights - Books, movies, music, dreams, friends, family, strangers, travel, - reality - the 10 O' Clock news -Most of the time I'm very Lost in trying to understand - whatever happens becomes tangled into writing this confusing memoir -

It's a really odd combination of air - not sure whether it is refreshing or suffocating - stabilising or maddening - But I breathe and
so it is
'Memoirs of a Sudanese breath' as I am 'Lost but under control' -
