As you see the pain in my eyes.
You feel the joy in my heart.
As the tears flow from inside.
You see me smile.
...

Today I come to you
I run to you
My arms open wide
As my heart is breaking
...

We have Eid al-fitr
Eid Ul-adha
Eid Jumah every Friday
Within my heart I have Eid muslimah every Saturday
...

Every step I take.
Every breath I breathe.
You are my destiny.
The light at the end of a very long path.
...

Today is the day a brand new day
A day for sharing, caring and reading qura'an
As we fast all day
We thank Allah
...

You bring me to this country
A better life you tell me
As you teach me to pray and read Qur’an
YOU WAIST YOUR MONEY ON ME
...

People often say that life begins at 40
When I became 40
I could not believe
People started to say my writing, spelling & maths had improved
...

Oh how I miss you
An empty space in my heart
As I remember how you keeped me strong
Your kind words
...

Oh how you have grown
So tall and beautiful
Marsha-Allah
I hug you
...

I went to the Mosque today
Singing Nasheeds in the rain
Bismilah with every step I take
As I feel the warmth within my heart.
...

Oh what should we do
You look at with my fair skin
You think oh what a shame
What a waste of a beutiful white girl
...

Today is the day
A brand new day
With love in my heart
Joy in my sole
...

People think that coz we are hear the goverment tolerate us
Yet on the news you see what they want you to see
The truth be known
We tolorate the goverment
...

Oh what’s a girl supposed to do?
Off to the market I go.
Looking for the wheat free food.
Looking for no alcohol in the food.
...

Slavery has stoped
You say there is no isms
The black man is now free
Are you sure you did not just replace me!
...

Oh how I am blest
You are my friend
You are my family
We share are ups & downs
...

L is for Lauren, lovely and loyal.
A is for amazing and alert.
U is for understanding and untouchable.
R is for rah, rah, rah, running every where.
...

Alhumdillah you think of me
As I think of you
What would I do with out you?
Through the exhaustion
...

I’ve been hear for a long time
Helping others and giving shelter
Yet people come and people go
They seem to forget me
...

Oh how I’m drowning
Drowning in this sea of mass confusion
I know it’s not for long
Although it seem like forever
