Why do You Wear Hijab?

why the veil?
you think I failed
that now I'm jailed

for a man?

this fabric

covers hair and skin
protects whats within
from the eyes of sin

2 yards of cloth

do not cover my voice
it was my choice
this duty I rejoice

this hijab

not to disguise
but to emphasize
and be recognized

I am Muslim.

Allahu Akbar

**i"ll use Tico as my ghostwriting name :D

    ultra[blue]--he he he no, actually some of my friends always shortened by name by only saying half of it--which I hate, so one of them came up with Tico instead :)
