An ocean between

There is an ocean that separates us.
Meanwhile..
My mind wanders there to where you are.
Homesick I am
Home is where the heart is they say..

And you do have my heart.

His Bounty

Take in a moment and take notice to the bounty of blessings He has bestowed upon us. If you find it hard to find them, simply look around you. You don't have to look very hard.

Inner Peace

In order to magnify & reflect peace..
You need to find an inner calm.. an inner peace.
Peace isn't possible without finding that quiet reserve within yourself.

Jannah

The dark realities of this Dunya can be quite scary and even disheartening. But the reality of Allah's Jannah should be more than enough to strengthen our souls.

You I turn to.

People come and go in this Life..
We try to learn from these coming and goings, to the best of our capabilities.
In the end I put my complete love and trust in Allah.
When my heart is aching, I turn to Allah.
When my heart is rejoicing, All praise belongs to Allah.
No matter what shape I'm in..
Its You I turn to for each and everything.
SubhanAllah..

Last Straw

Always by your side..
Just as family ought to be.
I gave you the shirt off my back..
Even though I really needed it.
I gave you my shoulder to cry on, listened to your rants.
And even though you never really listened...
I gave my quiet wisdom when you asked.
Your sidekick I was not.
Remember..
STILL WATERS RUN DEEP.
I'd be lying to say that I'm not shattered.
Tired of contemplating why things have changed to the way they are.
Nothing left but to accept it.
Hope you come to the realization of what matters most.
Set our differences aside , let go of PRIDE..
And hold on to what is near and dear..
Before taking a hard fall to remember.
I'll always be there.
When the time comes.. I'll be there.

A practice of its own

Sometimes getting past being hurt by someone..
Whether directly or indirectly..
Passively or aggressively..
Its easier said than done.
Getting past being jaded
More of a practice of sorts..
A practice you sometimes find never ends.

Silence

Sometimes we burden ourselves trying to contemplate the words left unspoken.. When really, we should realize that the SILENCE tells us all that we need to know.

Dear Heart

Dear Heart,

I know we've been on a long journey, sometimes the terrain got rough..
But, you can rest assured for we've finally found home & its foundations are
built strong. Keep that beat soft and steady. Feel the peace settling in.
-Me
