Mahfooz Ali Poems

I believe in strength,
In I must find.
I believe closets are deep,
I sometimes take a peek.
...

Allah! in Heaven hear my plea,
Send me an answer so I may see,
Reasons for life and reasons for death,
Reasons for pain and reasons for love,
...

I try and I try
and yet it is still hard to find what am I
looking for.
I still am not sure but I continue to look
...

He goes to work every day,
He put his life on the line,
He protects those who hates him,
they hate him because he protects,
...

I always want me out,
me out, of bad situations,
unhealthy environments,
abusive relationships,
...

We have been reading in the news,
And viewing television's breaking Line
About all those who have lied
And been caught in their lies,
...

I made a vow today,
To do the best I am able,
To live peaceably with all
As much as I know how,
...

Alone in the woods, a single leaf drops.
Such a sight can encompass the purpose of life,
If one knows how to look at it?
...

I never give up easily.
After everything,
how could I?
I don't care that I never get in return.
...

When I go to sleep at night
the thoughts on my mind
At times those thoughts make me smile
Other times I go through denial
...
