Where Did Everyone Go?
Lyrics by Eng. Ali Sadeek
Regret is whispering in my soul
I gave my all, I played my role
Wrote the songs, I shaped the lines
Hoping love would somehow shine
I reached for hearts with open hands
Planted roses in the sands
Broke down walls to let light in
Crossed the borders deep within
But where did everyone go?
Why am I standing alone?
I gave you words, I gave you dreams
Now silence drowns my every theme
Is this the truth of how we live?
Take what we want, forget to give?
Was all my care just thrown away?
A song that no one wants to play...
I wrote to lift, to make you feel
But pain is all that feels so real
My thoughts, they echo in the dark
No one replies, not even a spark
Still I remain, a soul so pure
Not like the devils you endure
I stand for peace, for honest love
For every wound, a healing dove
So wake up now, my sleeping friends
It’s not too late to make amends
There is a door, still open wide
Where love can rise... and hate can hide

"We Grow in Love"
Title: "We Grow in Love" By Eng. Ali Sadeek In every heart, a seed is born, Of peace and hope, from dusk to dawn. No walls divide, no hate remains, Just hands that heal, and end all pain. We grow in love, we rise in light, We hold each other through the night. No fear, no fire, no broken land— Just dreams we build with open hands. We grow in love… Yes, we grow in love. Let voices sing, not weapons roar, Let kindness bloom from shore to shore. A child’s smile, a mother’s eyes, A sky that knows no more goodbyes. We grow in love, we rise in light, We hold each other through the night. No fear, no fire, no broken land— Just dreams we build with open hands. We grow in love… Yes, we grow in love. No color, flag, or border line Can break the bond in hearts divine. We breathe as one, we stand as kin— Let every healing song begin. We grow in love, we rise in light, Together strong, in morning bright. A world reborn from all above— We grow in peace… We grow in love.

Belle of the Bayou
Bad move, cher. Not just the slip of her kitten heel on the rainy February cobblestones in the Fourth Ward. She got caught snooping. Detective Deleon clucked and strutted like a rooster in his rush to clear her from the scene, waving cigar smoke to and fro as he gesticulated amid the thick air of the speak easy. An experienced crime reporter, Marie knew better than to let the coppers catch her on the wrong side of the line, but curiosity had gotten the better of her.
