I'm not a Terrorist


Why you have that towel over your head?

Isn't too hot wearing all that over your head?

Is Osama Bin Landan related to you?

Why can't you show your hair?

Will your dad kill you for hugging a boy?

Are you a terrorist? 

Islam is my religion,

I'm a Muslim at heart.

Never harmed a soul,

not even the soil I walk upon.

Label gets throwing at me,

for the mistakes of couple misguided men.

wise men said " Never just a book by its cover"

but yet I'm contiplating on why I'm being judge.

I'm not a terrorist because my Quran says

"kill my creation and you shall burn in hell"

I'm not terrorist!

I love everyone even the ones that throw shade at me,

because we get misguided the smallest things

My Name is Hawa Ali and I'm not a terrorist.
