I am a human, I am your friend

I wake up to the same SUN as you

My breakfast has eggs, I know you too

I too, wear cotton, linen, wool and silk

I drink hot chocolate and dip cookies in milk

I go to school to learn English, Science and Math

We both go to college, just with a different path

I love reading books, and I like to sing

I play the UNO cards, I am a little thing

But,

Does my head scarf hurt you in the eye?

You saw me go to mosque, and you forever said BYE?

I cheered for them, for they Love their God

When I said, "I love Allah", I heard no Applaud

I pray, I eat, and I speak of my WILL

I'm a little girl, I swear, I do not k1ll!

Don't hate on me, don't break and end

I am a human, I am your friend!

A/N:

Being a Muslim, I've seen so much hate just for exsisting. Not in my country but Online. From the people who don't know enough. Who don't care enough.
