MY STATE OF EXISTENCE

Life...That's just it. It's happening all around me and it fascinates me. Life can and does beat the shit out of me but surviving that is what life is about. And this blog is about me, someone who doesn't fit any stereotype or label. There are alot of labels I posess Pakistani, Muslim, Young, Gay, Student but I don't want to fit in some pre-conceived notion of those labels. I maintain my individuality and this blog is the affirmation of my uniqueness.

ONE DAY AWAY, ALL IT TAKES...

Two weeks away feels like the world should have changed
but I'm home now and things still look the same.
I think I'll leave it till tomorrow to unpack,
try to forget for one more night that I'm back in my flat,
on the road where the cars never stop going through the night,
to a life where I can't watch the sun set, I don't have time, I
don't have time.

I've still got sand in my shoes and I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you but why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye, anything else would have been confused
but I want to see you again!


Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanity
should run a bath and then clear up the mess I've made before I left here
try to remind myself that I was happy here before I knew that I could get
on a plane and fly away from the road where the cars never stop going through the night,
to a life where I can watch the sun set and take my time, all
our time

I've still got sand in my shoes and I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you but why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye, anything else would have been confused
but I want to see you again!


Two weeks away, all it takes, to change and turn me around I've fallen
I walked away, and never said, that I wanted to see you again.
