There used to be

Whats the link between u and your country? 
Is it sadness is it patience
Is it weakness
Is it greed
Are all those links? For it certainly isnt strength

What is it that makes u sudanese?
Is it ur passport? Or because u were born here one day years ago
Or is it the colour of ur skin
Or is it how selfish u are?


They say there used to a barclays bank 
Here
They say we used to be the best
But now sudan follows me for i am the worst

well done. You punished the old lady



Am I evil or am I an angel, I don’t know but I hate this feeling, looking at myself with remorse and shame in everything I do. Getting jealous from everyone near me although I have everything better or just like them… or do I ? for im always missing one thing…., having this itching, painful, clear, biting sensation that all should be mine and no one elses. Clearly, that is a disease. I am diseased.
For just being who I am, for who I am isn’t who I need and is deteriorating, is maddening. Between My eyes always hurts, my brain is scattered, my heart shakes, my back aches and my story is ending. The flame is almost about to rebel out. It doesn’t feel like being involved in life, it doesn’t feel like trying, it doesn’t feel like anything. I wish I could throw my phone out the window, into the sea, into my lifeless existence. For with my phone I only gained suffocation. That tiny piece of metal and radiation is …. Killing me.  
 I wish I could melt my extra weight in a furnace. Just enter and come out …perfect. All will be well then. I wish I could be smart…again for I used to be smart and caring but now im just … a secretary.
Going every day from 8-3 and doing nothing from 8-3 except writing things a smart secretary should be doing.  
I need someone who can think on the spot , who can be kind and put pressure on her wounds without screaming, for who I want to be is that woman who doesn’t need to come to levels with an old soul, one created much further away and thus deserves much better respect regardless of her actions and her thoughts. It is you that should be locked up in time, locked up in organisation, locked up in punishment, not her.  But isn’t balance a challenge? Didn’t you just agree to this plan over and over again?  Didn’t we agree, didn’t I run it over with both and all said yes … perfect…
but I hate the look on his face…the disappointment is it> ? or is it the kindness that I don’t have - you are evil and I can just look inside your heart to see, for I can see the blackness waving out into our existence. This is your fault. Your greed and your shyness. I am too weak to do anything and deep down love may just be changing. Like your need to organise for 3 weeks away. Who knows what could happen until then. Just leave it. But all you can think about is that you won the challenge and punished the old lady. Well done. I miss my mum. She would have made me feel better.
I am unhappy because of nothing but myself. This poor shrivelled, weak, dishonest, sharp that makes others bleed, narrow minded…. Wouldn’t even call myself a female… just a vessel, a big one. T oo stupid to wake up on time
When angels fly by, and Allah calls youre too stupid to wake up. Snoring and dribbling misery further into your life
Hey Australia… I guess im coming to visit you.. can you hold this big woman I am with emptiness inside me.?

Tears of glory 1


Sudan...the glory
Sudan...the drunk and rotten
am I drunk and rotten?
Hope the powerful adamant critical beautiful detailed and caring of herself and her work and is achieving of everything she can do
Hope the stalled miserable weak tearful gunned holed and bruised woman she is

Whats happened
Hope 1961
Sudan 1961


Hope 2015
Sudan 2015


All the same
All the nothing
All the broken
All the shattered and african tears running down her spine


to be continued.....

 

T&M.... M&T.... the new invoice>

It starts to dawn on my mind that a dream becoming a reality isnt 
all that far or impossible no matter how small how inferior u may feel 
it may just reside with allah that u deserve that dream to become real
Maybe
 its already happened or happening maybe i just have to be strong close 
my eyes and wish upon a shooting star today not a million light years 
away 
Believe that she/s may become mine and her/s name may become 
magically intertwined with mine
Maybe

Ugly hand

What an ugly hand, what a beautiful icecream
What terrible discovery, what a beautiful day
What a repeat suprise, what a strong woman you are
What sly people u see, what a kind woman you are

The icecream is beautiful the colours the place maybe the people their love for each other their saceifices
Not like the ones u dont make
Not like the way i am
Big with faults
Pained with weakness
Hot with shame
Blown with heaviness
Shattered by my own weight





.... To pieces
Little bits and pieces
Like ground glass....
What a nice icecream what an ugly hand
Like yours ugly hand

September wishes...

this time
im not gona breakdown
am not gona give up
or lose hope
in fact
im gonna start again
im gonna tackle my pain and thank Allah I am better than who i was yesterday than who i am today
i will beat my faults and I will lower my weaknesses until my strengths are the only thing i can see
i will beat my body up until it stands tall
and proud
and i will not give up
i will not give up
in the easiest and most painful times i am like the tortoise with the rabbit
i will win a race the race whatever race
for i will not stop trying to get there
the place i want to reach
the place i want to go

and i will not stop praying
i will not give up on Allah, on myself and on good luck and faith
ya RAB, Ya Allah
help me

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' -
