HUMANS TRY TO HOLD ON THE MOMENTS, BUT THEY BEAUTY OF THESE MOMENTS IS THEY PASS AWAY IN A BLINK. IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE VALUE OF SOMEONE/THING WHEN YOU DONT TAKE FOR GRANTED
Growing up in Pakistan I have often heard from our elders that unless you don’t fall you will never learn to get up. Ironically, despite those words of so called encouragement that makes you believe in your family and them being you strength through thick and thin, when you actually do face failure you are deemed and termed as a disappointment. You not only hear words that shatter you and a strange kind of fear is instilled within you. A fear that makes you shiver, stunts your growth, makes you push yourself to a point that if you ever again face failure you become suicidal. You associate not...
I am the child of my nation! I'm free to get an education I love playing outside I'm my parents' pride But wait it's a memory Now I'm in jeopardy I'm culturally tied my newborn just died I'm under his exhortation I am the bride of my nation! When I was young they used to play an advertisement on child marriage. I saw that so much that I wanted to dress up as a child bride for Halloween. Now that I am 18, the only representation I have seen of my culture on Netflix is through Sitara; a story of a child bride. Child marriage is still an issue. 21% of the girls in Pakistan get married under the...
This poem is dedicated to all our frontline heroes that are risking their lives to save humanity during the pandemic. Days are spent trying to find the elusive cure, When the haunting will halt is far from sure. Our scrub clad heroes are putting their lives on the line, As they strive to keep the victims alive. But who will save our saviours? They desperately try to rip our blindfolds And erase the naivety that is clouding our minds, All while shielding us from the riptide. But who will save our saviours? Our frontline heroes try to ease the pain, And many have lost their lives but not in vain...
A BOY HE IS By: Syed Muhammad Yaseen Laughters, wishes and joy A boy is born Eyes opened, parents surrounded He will lead, they whisper Of eight he is Protecting sisters he is Time passes, parents get old Sisters looking for his support The tyrant world stares at sisters With the lion's roar, he counters Wedding the sister demands Working day and night he is Parents unable to stand Support like a stick he is Weds a girl, devoid of parents Loving her like the queen he is Parents, siblings, and love Attached to them he is A boy he is A boy he is
Emotions can't be defined in words A father's love can't be defined in words A father for them, champion for me Common person for them, ideal for me A message of love, care and support your scolding carrying Converting my shortcomings into strength you are assisting Way of living you have taught Spreading love, peace and harmony you have taught Lala shines with pride when I succeed A person who supports me without any greed Lost of words my mind is Lala Happy Father's Day Lala
Trigger Warning: mentions of sexual abuse and domestic violence Violation burned on every inch of her skin, scathing the very hands she used to paint with, scathing the feet she used to run with reckless abandon, scathing her innocent soul that did not deserve to be scathed. Not because she was “too young” because she was a human. A human entitled to safety, justice, a sense of comfort in her own home but she did not have that privilege. But neither did the 22,000 women in Pakistan that were subjected to sexual abuse over the past six years. It almost seems as if the more the cases are...
A GIRL SHE IS By: Syed Muhammad Yaseen Mother happy, father angry From lap cries the angel Portrait of love, and beauty she is A caring girl of 20 she is Devoid of property share she is Kept in dark marrying someone she is Exemplified as a queen she is Reality depicts a slave she is Sign of support she is A respectful sister she is Sign of beauty and love she is A wife she is Sign of care, the respect she is A mother of 2 she is Sign of kindness from the God she is A daughter she is A girl she is A girl she is
There is a time and place for everything to happen. Everything waits for the right moment to happen. All you need is patience. There is something that pushes and urges us ahead towards our goals where we can explore our inner self. Something that helps us to differentiate between the best and worst and between friend and foe. That thing is nothing except our inner satisfaction. We are satisfied when we have high status in society, but on the other hand we are satisfied having food. All you need is satisfaction. Satisfaction is next to peace and calmness. No satisfaction means many...
This is a re-published post, originally published in 2018.
Islands are sinking. The Amazon forest is burning. Health is turning into disease. People are raising their "standards", but where is nature going? Towards destruction! Why are we still silent? We need to stop using words and start showing our deeds. It's time to show gratitude towards nature, who gives us so much and in return we are harming them! A silent message to all people: Plant more and more trees. Show a little act of kindness by not killing living lives for no reason. Save them save earth. Save yourself. The world is a better place to live if we stop using plastic shopping bags and...
