Ali Adel Poems

One night, in the dead of night
Seven girls, one guy
Watched the torture of a girl on TV
The most disturbing, terrifying horror movie
...

High school can't do it
College won't do it
There is nothing in the power of God as we know him that can
...

Thank you my friends, my soul sisters, my everything's
for letting me know I can tell you anything
for making me laugh until I cry,
and cry until I laugh
...

I am a mind that thinks a billion thoughts
A radio always playing
As deep and mysterious as the ocean
New things always being discovered
...

The first thing on my Christmas list is scissors
To cut away this wall that's blocking me from you
I should be your misses and you would be my mister
To love and cherish through good and bad, 'I do'
...

When sorrow is forgotten
the sun will be seen
your mind feels light and open
and your body that was once locked up in chains, is as free as a young eagle
...

like I finally belonged
had a place in this world
when I laid on the hardwood of the studio floor,
dark outside, lights off in
...

One hundred feet under is where the seed lies,
but it shall never climb the ladder of soil
and see the glowing God above our heads
It's petals will not be privileged to inhale the cool air
...

Feel bad? Feel sad? Feel just plain mad?
Well take that blade and have at!
It sucks for me to read about
It sucks for me to see
...
