The One Who Was and Will Always Be
I wonder when I look above
With a sigh of love
At the starry sky, with tears of joy
When will this life come to an end?
For I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
It’s true this life does have a reason
But the world for me is still a prison
So no wonder what I have in here
That void inside will always be
For I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
I try to avoid it but I end up sinning
My heart feels heavy and my head starts spinning
If this is the pain I feel in this world
Then how harsh would the hell fire be
The thought of it makes me hate myself
But despair of HIS mercy I’ll never be
For I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be
So I turn to HIM, put my head on the ground
My lost soul as if suddenly found
His remembrance puts my heart at peace
And brings a happy thought to mind
If this is the satisfaction of this world
How much pleasure one would in the Heaven find?
And then I can’t wait and I want to see
The ONE who was and will always be

wa iyyaaki. All Praise be to Allah.
i love this one the most..from all the poems you have written :)
From all the poems I’ve shared*
Cuz you haven’t read the poems I’ve written that aren’t public yet.
You seem to be getting better and better mashaAllah! BaarakAllah Feek!
By the way, have you read Ammar AlShukry’s post on his trip into the wild to look at the starry sky as he couldn’t see it in the city? It wasn’t a poem but somehow your poem brought that to mind. I’ll share the link if I can find it, inshaAllah.
Ameen. Yes I’ve read this, I saw the link you’ve given below. It was pretty amazing I remember.
And no sister, it is only Allah who gives me the words I honestly don’t know how I come up with them suddenly. May HE make me better and better in Taqwa too! Ameen!
P.S. Here in GIKI you can see millions of stars every night. I’ve seen shooting stars many times because the view is just HUGE and there is almost no pollution here. So Alhamdulillah we have some things which people have to travel for. This sky isn’t the same in Lahore or ISB.
