 [glow=red,2,300]PLIGHT OF A MUSLIM BROTHER[/glow]
I want you too much to take you
And cherish you too much to cheapen
So sister accept my distance
And watch my love slowly deepen

I am but one man among many
Who longingly think to savour
Your warmth ,ur eyes , ur smile
And wonder out its flavour

My place among them is common
of merits , i cannot boast
but my sister my devotion
to ur honour is foremost

and i alone among them
nearly burst with warmth
when he of lustful eyes
stood an blocked ur path

when he of theiving hands
stole a caress from urs
when he stood close to u
as he would with common whores

as i stood in my rage
u stood in virgin shame
i'd come to ur defense
if u'd only call my name

if only you would see me
as more than just a beard
if only u could think of me
as more than religiousl weird

its for islam ,not spite it
that  i will not meet ur eyes
and its not romantic cowardice
that keeps my smiles shy

its not because i fear u
that i will not call ur name
and when i call u siser
i'm trying to be tame

its not that ur inferior
its just that im so base
i havent the control
to gaze into ur face

without my heart missing beats
without forgetting to be brother
without wishing ur love
was for me an no other

so until Allah  blesses me
an u become my other half
i will always close my ears
to the melody of ur laughs

i will always close my eyes
to the beauty of ur face
i will kindly ask my heart
to beat at normal pace'

i will walk a step before u
an cast no looks from behind
i will move my lips in zikr
to keep urs off mine

for i want u too much to take
And cherish you too much to cheapen
sister accept my distance
sister watch my love deepen


well wat do u all think of it???
isnt it just wonderful !  :-*! i dont no who wrote it !!but i would reallly like to praise his poetic talents!!! :-X :-) [wlm]

If only there was a brother like that for all the sisters.  None of us would stray.

Before all you bros want to throw punches my way, I didn't mean it that it's your fault, us sisters stray.  I know it's society, but I was saying if there were more brothers like the ones in the poem, then we wouldn't have to.

Wait....I'm still not saying that right.  You know what I mean right?

Ahh...you brothers guide us to the right path so that we won't stray....aughh...I give up.

Ma-asalaama....

i don't know sis Trustworthy and sis yumna, if a bro wrote me that poem (assuming i wasn't married) i would literally drop kick him to the curb!!!..it's nasty! *insert really disgusted look*

"stood in your virgin shame" ?!!! :o

and even worse:

"i will move my lips in zikr  
to keep urs off mine "

Ewwwwwwwwwwww!!!! I mean like...yeah...EWWWWWWWWW (*no disgusted look can fit in here*)

yeah, he seemed to have only one thing in mind when he wrote this poem..and it's not very attractive to the softer, gentler,  pristine, and more intelligent, sophisticated gender ::)

if this is reflective of the pool of bros out there, I  pray for my unmarried sisters:(

PS: sorry no offense meant to anyone, esp. if the bro is here ;)

sis,
Maliha :-)

That's what got me.  And his plight to be a good Muslim for waiting until they were married so as to not make her stray for him.  

Now I'm an open gal (it's terrible, I try to be shy-really) so every guy I talk to has talked to me back.  Now if every guy didn't talk to me back then maybe I wouldn't be so open.  Does that make any sense here?

I talk the talk but I sometimes don't walk the talk.  I give advice yet I don't follow my own in piety.  Know what I mean?  

as i stood in my rage  
u stood in virgin shame
i'd come to ur defense  
if u'd only call my name

That should've been left out.  No disagreement there with ya' sister.  Then it would be a sweet poem.  I'm sure his intentions weren't wrongful.  At least that's not how I see it.

ma-asalaama....

I'm with sis yumna on this 1. I liked the poem :o Even though some parts were questionable ??? it was quite honest. Because when u think about it who among us has completely pure thought about some1 of the opposite sex that we're attracted 2? :-[ And when u really read what he's saying:

but my sister my devotion  
to ur honour is foremost

He wants to defend her from the average, hormonally driven, man:

and i alone among them  
nearly burst with warmth
when he of lustful eyes
stood an blocked ur path

when he of theiving hands
stole a caress from urs  
when he stood close to u
as he would with common [woman of ill repute]s

as i stood in my rage  
u stood in virgin shame
i'd come to ur defense  
if u'd only call my name

He's only relaying a modest trait that he sees in her.  ::) While she's being harassed.

P.S.- though i'm equally curious to know WHO (*hint-Nomi-hint* hint*)
wrote this?
