Muslims

We’re known as terrorist and are despised by a lot
Accused of being murders, spies and what more
We try our best in life but no one sees it in us, all they do is hate
Hate me because I am Muslim, hate me because I have a different religion, and hate me because I am unique
Rumors spread around by the media doing their job
Blaming us for things we have nothing to do with
What else comes next, well there’s more
Women hated for the veil they wear, proudly covering their hair 
We treat each other equally, but to they thinks so,       no
Believing women are oppressed, Believing we are ISIS, 
But no  were much more than you can imagine
We can be doctors, engineers, and so much more making me a Muslim just gives me even more
I am a Muslim woman happy as can be 
So what’s this rumors spreading around I hear
We need to stop this and I can only hold so much more
We need to spread the word all over this world that 
We, me you are something better than ever
And you have pushed the lever 
Of who my Muslim identity is  
And I am proud and confident of who I am, especially cause,   I am a Muslim

I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like.

Why Would you consider Men to be soUR? I find this poem to be a target and a pushover to those who care. I find your true self to be a lie. Why would you claim Muslim, yet paint a different pride? SO SO confusing. Sad to read you would even consider this a poem to post or a boost. You're in your own world bringing rumors upon a welcome community. I honestly don't like or consider you less than any words you spray on this newly made account to whomever you are. YmanSOUR, MANSOUR, Peace & Love

Is is not ironic that what you accuse people of you have done yourself in this poem? Not all women wear the veil of choice, something to think about, and most people I know, dont think bad of Muslims, all humans are capable of good and bad, if we have kindness in our hearts, we should all proud! you and me and all kind souls! :)
