Surrender to Divinity

All in divine hand
Need a miracle
Working on that miracle
I will see that face again
I will see that smile again
I will feel that hug again
I will feel that love again

But..
If that never ever feel that ever again...
See that face
See that smile
Feel those arms
Feel the love
in person...

Just remember..
I just wanna say
Thank You
Thanks

Thanks for being the love
Thanks for being that sunshine
Just for being you
The imperfect perfect you
For making want to be better
For making me want to do better

Don't think ya heard me said
Thank you
Thank you for that twisted evening at Bickford's
August 27, 1992
For all the rest of my lovely beautiful days
That has you in it
In my heart
On my mind
On my face

My Shoes

You are not in my shoes
You don't get it
The feelings I have
The hurt I feel
The joy in my heart
And the tears I shed

Either you really don't care
Or you really don't wanna care
I am just too difficult
I am just too much for you
You dismiss me
Tho I am blood
I should not have to hear those words

God help me
I am not gonna say its OK
I have to forgive you
You can only love as you have been loved
And I know its not much

The tears I shed
The hurt I feel
The joy I feel
It is all in God's hand
I am in his hands
Because there is nothing else I know
Because there is is no better place for me to be

Hold on to faith
Hold on to trust

Right there with you

Hold me
Feel like I am falling

Don't want you to see see me

Feeling battered

Don't wanna give up
Am digging deep

in all my imperfections
I trust that you will not forsake me
That you will take good care of me

Hand Heart Wash Clean

Hand Heart Wash Clean

I lost a friendship
Over a smiley face
On your ex's facebook......
We were friends
When I did not feel it was directed
negatively at you....


You don't wanna listen to explaination
You don't wanna accept explaination
You don't wanna see and accept when I ask
How can I make it better

Nothing can I do
Nothing I can say
I am hurt
I am sad
But my conscience is cleared
God knows why heart
maybe our time has come
With you slamming that door on me
someone that truly loves, gets gets and understanding
is meant to fill that spot

Voice

Voice of love
Voice of reason
You'd be loud
You'd be strong
You hold on

Even if I had moments of not believing
You give me a reasons to believe....
Reasons to give up
Reason to give that perpetual middle finger to negativity

Thank you God
For that love
For sending me that strength
For that faith
The light in my life
The best thing that happen to me
Even if days that I do feel that I doubt you
But the reality is hard for me to..
I don't ..
I love
I trust
I believe
in me
in you
in God
in whatever is that is good.......

What I Want



I tell you what I want
To be that shoulder
Knowing that I am not stupid
Knowing that I am not naive
To know that you are not you are not faking it,
For you to see me as me
as good person that I am
I just want to see,want to know the real you

Baby ...
You are not up there
And I am not down here
If we can 't meet each other half way
God help me,
Help me understand
If it needs to be over
Shouldn't it be over
But..Its not

I'd much rather let you go ..
in love
than be this way...
Would I ever know the truth
You've been in my life for far too long
for it to be this way
For me to feel this way

My love eternal
patience tested
Till the last drop

Dejection

Walking that stage
sea of faces
Gonna tell that story for that competition
She was not afraid


It was her turn
She took her place
She started

She was stopped
She saw head turning
She heard loud rumbles



Boo boo
Boo boo
Get her off that stage!!
Get her off that stage
We don't like the way she speaks
Its funny
Its awful
who does she think she is???


Tears came running
She felt humiliated
She felt embarassed
She went running off that stage
She went off crying in the bathroom
Sobbing,
like she has never sobbed before
Tho lord knows she has cried her tears


She held on tight
what else was she suppose to do
She cried
Held out
Hurt yeah
but marched on.......

If only I Know

If I know what to do
To make things better
In a heartbeat I would

If I know what I would take
I would
But I don’t….

I am only human

If I know what to do
If I know what to say
To have you in my life
To have your heart
I would in a heartbeat
But I don’t

I am only human

All I have is me
All my tears
All my love
All my heart

Heart that is telling me
To keep keeping on
To keep having faith
In the end it would all work out right
In the end it would all be worth the wait
God..would not forsake

Zee thoughts



http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42869844/ns/world_news-death_of_bin_laden

You do have to read the article earlier that got me to writing this.

I am by no means trying to be overly dramatic the fact is I have experienced first hand what it feels like to hurt by unfair judgement based on my racial,ethnic,religious background.

Before leaving for Boston all the first batch accepted by Boston University (B.U) thru the campus here (there were ten of us),we had professors from Boston to prepare us for. We had this English professor that made us do a lot of
free writing ,journalling and what he called dialog book. One of his reasons was to promote connection,understanding that he feels correlates to good, smooth writing.

I never fitted in, no matter how hard I tried. I was learning how not to let it bother me so much slowly. Can't fully remember how the conversation got to the point it did, but it was my turn to have a journal dialog with C. To my sadness and shock I saw the sentences " because of the way you dress, and who you are.. people here think and look at you as a religious fanatic..thats why they do not want to be your friend" This was suppose to be in Malaysia where I was born and I should have been understood and seen in a better light. That was not obviously the case.

I got thru the experience starting to talk with that professor since he was his class . We talked quite a bit and he reinforced the attitude of " you do need to be a part and adapt but not adopt when being in new situations". I had that in me but he reminded me.

About two months into digesting the situation and feelings, I was watching TV, a concert ws showing and NKOTB came on. Donnie came busting out like he always does and the first words out of his mouth was "assalamualaikum" ~ peace be upon you; greetings typical in the Islamic culture.

I was feeling low,sad,bad ,doubting but in that instant looking and hearing Donnie utter that greeting,acknowledging, undeniably felt acceptance,love and pride amongst other things in the beginning. That teenager is reminded thru Donnie of love ,acceptence ,understanding for others and yourself. He was always talking about its about " you are OK despite who what where you come from...stand tall stand strong in YOU". I had more than enough reasons told and given to me to feel negatively..but that was going to stop right there right here and right now.

Fast forward to Boston. Where I found freedom and ease to love,accept,nurture me. I knew negativity would still be there, Ignorance will still be there. I had a dorm mate from Louisville,KY ( I kid you not) that was unfortunately there as part as that lesson. having said that I was more blessed with love,surrounded, meeting people that was OK with me, some even loved me,became "mi familia". They never once made me feel less than worthy, not comfortable being me ( yes even the vertically challenged me) ;). I did not have to anything but do me and I was enough and loved.

Fast forward even further; 2001 back in Malaysia. September 11 happened. I cried. I just knew humanity would change because of it.I reject and dislike people who uses religion and God's name in vain. The God and religion that I know is filled with nothing but love,compassion and understanding. That was destroyed by one man's plan in matter of seconds. Now he is gone but damage is there.Healing needs
to be done. Humanity however needs to want it.

I love America for what it has given me,what It stands for, what it believes. It is my soul home.

Looking at that picture of the graffiti on the Maine Muslim Community Center in Portland, Maine, filled with anger,hatred makes me sad .Makes me wonder Will it ever be OK. What would happen to me when God says that its the right time to be back. I know the last time I walked on the streets of Boston on that whole stretch of Comm.Ave I still felt nothing but joy ,love and gratitude.

May that never change
May love reign
Here is to love and all humanity

Holding Light

I am gonna keep saying my prayers
I am gonna keep the faith
I am gonna keep hope float
I am gonna keep praying for patience

That things would work out
That love would find me
That love be returned
That whatever God has planned
The bigger picture would be fully accepted
be fully understood
Trust that He wants nothing but the best for me

Even if the love is not physically around
to always and know and feel that the love would always be there
Feel the love and blessings

The Bigger Picture

I am such a fool
Hoping
Wishing
Maybe I have been mad
Mad at the world
Mad at life
Its hard to say
Thought I understand
But then again....
Its a bitter pill to swallow


God sent me there
God showed and lead me to you
I feel blessed
I feel happy
I feel loved
I feel grateful


Why was I there
Why we met
Why was that all taken away from me
When I was not planning
When I was not ready,
not wanting to let it all go

Guess maybe
I do know
The time came
Its meant to end
Thats is not meant to be

Lessons came
Lessons learned
Love came
Love lost
Love learned

Dear God just help me learn
Just help me fully understand
Accept
Embrace
What your bigger plan
what the bigger picture
that you have for me

Forgive Me

Forgive me
that I am human
That dear God, It take a lot sometimes for me,
that I do get sad,
I do get get angry
that I don't feel that I deserve the things that happens to me
That sometimes I don't always understand your plan, your reasons
But I do love you
I trust you
I always strive to do and be better

Forgive me Mama and papa,
that have had enough
enough of that feeling less then
enough of that expectations
what you think a good daughter should be
sorry that I am not cut in your mold
that you can't love,understand,accept unconditionally and be happy
I don 't want to be you
I want to be better
be happy
find my bliss
find my joy


Forgive me dear sister
that you feel that I am not a good enough older sister for you
that we are two different people but asked to fit in

Forgive me that I hurt
that I hurt
the scars are there
that I refuse to live this way
that you call me ungrateful
just because,
that I have the brains
that I try to say my peace
that give up telling them because they are not heard


I am who I am
Forgive me

I rise

When I don't know what else to do
What else to say


Forgive me,
I am sorry
that I am human
that I hurt
I bleed
I get angry
that sometimes It's just to much
that it takes every ounce of me to live ,breathe and love

but.. I rise

Why I love you

You know why I love you?
Simply just for you
The spirit,the soul that is you
The words that comes out of you
Makes me believe in me

All the love that it brings
How can I ever deny that
Even till the day it ends
I am still here

You know why I love you?

You have thru all these years
Always made me want to strive to be a better masterpiece
A better person,
that is me,

For that,
I cannot, not love you
I could, would never ever turn my back on it
Its in the deepest sanest, loving, purest part of my heart

Do you even know?

Every one got stories to tell
Scars from the healing
From the hurt
From the tears

Happiness is the choice
It doesn't mean denial
It doesn't mean that there is no acceptence
Life is what it is......

I surrender my life to God
Accept things as they are
but ..
don't say that having dreams ,longing ,love
is in the way of my happiness
You are not in my shoes
I accept that thats what you think
but you obviously don't get me

In God, me, strength faith and love I trust

to be myself

find my bliss

Grace

Sunshine dry this tears away
Sweetness fill my day
Love please fill my heart
Take the bitterness away
Take away the pain

I have nothing to say
to that voice of hate
To that voice that wants to break
How much of it I can take

I'll live by God's grace
Karma has its place
Its love that I'll take
To God, I'll surrender my fate
Till my time to leave this spirit shape

My Truth

The truth of the matter is
Yes I am strong
Yes I am stubborn
Yes I believe
Thru everything that is thrown my way
The hurt
The tears
The love
The laughs

I have more than my share of it all
If only you knew
If only you saw
If only you understood

I don't complain
Not here to whine
I take it with a smile
I do my best to live in love
A choice that I make

I get tired
I get sad
I get depressed
I get angry
I get frustrated

Days I feel and wonder wether love,happiness will find me ..truly...
But you.... yes you
those words
Those eyes
That smile
That heart
My light
My sunshine
The wind beneath these small wings,
lifts me up

Not everyone gets it,understands it ..I am done expecting that.....
but in the real estate in my heart.. you'l forever have a place
my love
my blessing that I love cherish adore appreciate
you make me feel loved
you make me feel like a woman that I am
Even when days even I doubt myself
days when I can't see the best in me ..You do..
you believe,
You bring out the best in me
Thats why you are forever my heart
Forever my baby

Worthy

Sometimes the brain shuts
Sometimes I run out of words
When I think of you
When I see you

I am not even gonna fight....
Not even gonna claw....

I'll never be funny enough
I'll never be witty enough
I'll never be sexy enough
I'll never be that supermodel
I'll never be flirty enough

Worthy enough to be in your life
Worthy enough to stand next to you

Guess what
I am me...
For all its worth
I am worthy
Enough for me
Enough for the good Lord that created me
Enough for the ones that truly love and see me

Don't blame you
Don't hate you
There is a reason that I love
that reason just plain and simple is YOU
for everything that is YOU
for everything that is ME
thats all I have got to give

Randomocity Zee

Just like everyone I know , I open my eyes say my prayers and gratitude. Go on with my day with God in my heart and smile on my face. I have to admit there is this random thought,feeling that just went running thru my head. Almost making me feel rather annoyed at myself. Hard pill swallow and to admit but I know I am not alone.

Could I really have thoughts,picture,prayers that love is and will be in my life that I deserve every thing that life has to offer. Hard to admit, but yeah there is that nagging that picks at you and wants you to hear it,trying hard to sabotage everything.

How do you really truly shut up that evil voice that wants you to believe that you are undeserving of what is good,whats blessings....

Lets start with really really really giving that little twit the middle finger shall we? =))

Don't You Stop Me

You'll never see
You'll never understand
No matter how hard I try
You try to sell me that crap
That I am not buying

I am done
A long time ago
And more so
Done trying to please
Done trying to make you love me

You and your stupidity
You and your passive aggressiveness
You hurt me with your words
You hurt me with your behaviour


I swear I'd rather die
than let it get the best of me

God as my strength
God as my witness
Whatever it takes
Moving thru my new beginning
