A letter to myself, This is an extremely important piece of writing. One where I will attempt to be as honest as I can with myself about myself, about the physical world, and about the metaphysical world. I have always felt like life had been harshest to myself, which is not true. Because the world…
A Letter from a Temporarily Ex-Romantic
Dear love, You’ve been engulfing my surroundings lately, in countless forms. The words of over a dozen people declaring you to each other, the look in the eyes of a million others, the thoughts about you almost relentlessly every night, and the doubts that came with every single one of those thoughts. I know I…
Affliction
Every line, forming the wholeness of your form. Every color, making up all the different sides to you. Every stroke, representing journeys you’ve experienced. Every dot, giving you your uniqueness. Every layer, unfolding what is hidden underneath. Every whitespace, leaving room for future growth. You’ve become a painting, confined in physical dimensions. But when…
To All Artists Out There
Contributing to the art world is one of the most beautiful aspects of the physical world that one can be a part of. Contributing to the art world is a part of worshiping God, a proof of this is the verse of the Quran stating “God is beautiful and appreciates beauty” It seems like the…
Dear Dad,
Dear dad, It’s extremely difficult for me to be writing this letter. We have never had the best of relationships. As a child, I remember loving you because of the social and biological standard that is put. After all, you were part of the reason I was on this earth, but that was the limit…
The Book of People
One of the most enjoyable and mesmerizing experiences in our world is one of the things that I believe many people take for granted. It occurs and begins nearly everyday, its extremely effortless, and only when it’s potential to grow is embraced does it become a magical experience. Getting to know someone. Such a simple…
To the person I’m going to fall in love with
I’m probably gonna drive you crazy With constant hugs and no personal space With long random letters about what you meant to me With a million pictures of us and of you With a million plans for the future I’m probably gonna give you headaches With the songs playing super loud in the car With…
The Smile
“Don’t smile at me like that.” She said “Like what?” He asked. “Like you’re about to steal my heart and everything that comes with it away.” That’s when she thought about all the smiles she came across that ressembled that one. The smiles that were the beginning of it. The “it” that pushed her to…
A goodbye letter to the love I feel for you
So this is it, the goodbye letter. It’s not a permanent goodbye just a goodbye to the love I feel for you. I re read the old letters I wrote you and see how I stress over how hard it is to reach this goodbye, and it’s still equally as hard if not harder, but…
Happy Mother’s Day
To all the women out there who are unable to have children, to all the children who have lost their mothers, to the fathers who have lost their wives and attempt to raise their children the best way they can think of, and to the mothers who have lost their little angels. This is still…
Curses of Being a Romantic
Being a romantic is the best and worst part about myself. It has driven me to Art, Literature, Music, everything that is beautiful in our world. It has made me witness and appreciate the smallest things in people around me and made me trust my deepest emotions when all that surrounds me seems to point…
