I Know My Own Mind.

Poetry By: Rowenya
Poetry


A lot of Muslims, particularly men, in my acquaintance are beginning to try and force their religious views on me. It's not everyone doing it, it's just the majority of people that I know.

I'm not some child to be patted

on the head and told "One day you

will understand". I'm 21 years old and

I know my own mind.

I practice religion the way I want to,

according to the moral compass I was

born with. I was raised to be strong, and

I know my own mind!

Don't try to dictate religion to me, you fool,

the last man who tried dictating to me got a

black eye and some sharp words. I'm old enough

to know my own mind.

Let me practice Islam in my own way according

to what I think is right. My life is none of your

business and it never will be - just trust that I

know my own mind.
