Naomi

Oh Naomi
I hope you see it all so perfectly now..
Sweet, sweet Naomi
The good and the bad...
Like a twisted knot of manzanita red
I know you're in a place where there's
Total clarity..
No more blurred lines..
No ins or outs..
Nothing to dwell on..
No shadows of the past to cripple
Your sparkle.
Only the Truth by your side..
Inside and out
Just eternal Light..
Sweet Naomi
Here on this earthly plane,
We're left to play.

This Is Our Time

This is our time
It's always been now or never.
We've traveled far on that lonesome road...
A million heartbreaks leading me to you.

It was always you...
My soulful friend.
I could never let you slip away...
As real as a thought, as close as my heartbeat
We shared a vision...
I made a decision.
The moment will always be now.
Heaven nestled within' my arms...

All in this world will meet it's end.
But not you and me.

A silent Truth

I know the silent truth..
Of holding onto a lonely grace
In the face of anger.
 
I know the quiet surrender
To tranquil silence..
Where silence becomes my voice.
 
Soulful solitude..
An inward embrace
The only comfort..
That of the Ever Watchful.
 
Allahu Alim..
A God, All-Knowing.

No Words

No words can capture
The void you leave behind.
Every smile, every laugh, every embrace..
The warmth of your face..
Glowing.

The thought of you gone
Chills me to the bone.
Yet I will wait, patiently...
As I have dreamed of you for years before.

I crossed land and ocean..
Chasing a love deeper than the depths,
Higher than ever flown,
Beyond this earthly mass..

I love you now and always..
From Dunya to Jannah.
By your side for always and eternal....

-A
