OUR NEW NORMAL
OUR NEW NORMAL Life during a pandemic. Already change is challenging for most. If we had a choice or I should rather say, control things would remain the same, people's thinking would never evolve, but we don't have control over anything.

A Year Ago, Tomorrow
“De Temps En Temps,” by Josephine Baker. That’s what I was listening to. Funny now to think I'd ever forget how it felt, something like that.

Pretty pink perfume

Lose me
Pray to God I don’t
Lose th...

They punch their way into your attention
They invade your heart
Until you must look at them
All so that they can violate you again
They...

With Allah...I can , so i will.
Aspirations...Where we are and where we want to be?
My aspirations have always focused on being a world-renowned, bestselling author, however, i have found great value in fact, total gratification in knowing my pieces help people whether i get paid or not.
Where i come from...where i am...and where i want to be is a constant and ongoing journey.
I have come very far from the young girl wh...

breaths in me
