They say

Being rejected is the same feeling a physical pain 
Never mind by your own one 
And after a big try 
Here is me thinking I did well 
When I didn’t 
48/60 in fact
Cheapest of the earth results
I couldn’t even pass the easy stuff 
Like making her like me 
The preference is real
The pain is also 
Here I am with a real deficit 
Being unliked
Being in comforting
 Having to resort 
It’s sad when I’m this pathetic

… everyone thinks I’m just a disappointed idiot 
When I’m not 
I’m really a smart fool 
One is afraid 
Feelings raw feelings unworthy
Feelings broken
Shattered by the hammer of further torment 
Ridicule is a sharp misery
And here it is
Breaking the soul
No matter what I do 
I’ll never get there

Let me tell you

That in Islam god says if you kill one person then You have killed the whole of humanity and if you saved one person then you have saved the whole of humanity 
The Quran 

I have never felt that more in my heart than in the killing of an innocent girl going exercising and so much more was her life. 

Her death made me feel drawn to fear love anger suffering torment grief anguish loss and destruction 

Two hands did all of this 

Bring nightmare bring numbness bring an emptiness over everyone here
Far and near

Two hands wearing black the blackness over his cells and his heart left beating is unimaginable contradiction 

I think to myself while she left us and left all the things beautiful he also left his life behind on that bank 
That was the last time he rode a bicycle and the last time he will walk or run down that walkway 
That walkway of freedom 
Isn’t that a big price to pay 

As for that woman capturing my feelings my heart I can only pray in my own faith but joint as a woman that she is in heaven that she is happy that she lives in memory in that sun ray and crisp 4pm afternoon wind or even in times of rain in those clean pearls of water or even if it become windy the strong winds of strength or even when it’s hot that she lives in the melting of   Time helping everyone get to terms with this pain 

There are many last times 


Let me tell you about

The pain I felt for a young woman murdered while running
So much pain I could barely breathe
My fingers constantly searching for news
I never knew this girl but my heart feels tremored as if I did
My tears fall thinking about small agonies that make it all the worse
What was she thinking of that last happy
That was last her
What was the last thing she bought
What song was on if there any
Before the devil came along
I feel horrific pain 
As a woman as daughter as a mother as a wife
It doesn’t matter what culture we are from or what colour we are
What matters is the whiteness or blackness in our hearts
Last Wednesday black met white and I was invade with sorrow 
All the way down here so different and so far 
But yet so close in pain 
I pray in my own way
To stop searching for the answer

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' -
