Another Trail of Tears

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

she read what he wrote again

that Friday in Memphis

a story of old

when everything was good and everything was gold

they talked about growing old

together, forever

 

then came the heartbreak without explanation

her heart raced in pace in anticipation as she traveled to see his face

or so she thought

the trail of road

turned into another trail of tears

why this pain…

why these years…

why these tears…

 

to become stronger?

to remember everything happens for a reason?

to stop blaming herself when she knows she’s not the reason?

I Cry

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

No one sees the tears that I cry
The tears that no one sees

No one knows the pain that I feel
The pain that I feel no one knows

The sadness
The abandonment
The heartbreak

Yeah my heart aches

Sharp pains in my chest
Surely in Allah do hearts find rest

O Allah dry my tears
do away with my fears
relieve my pain

O Allah I beg you

The sadness
The abandonment
The heartbreak

How much more of this can I take?

Help me, O Allah, help me
Release me from this misery
I get down on my knees
and beg You, my Lord, please

Looking Up

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Looking up at the stars in the sky

Wondering why
Wondering why

Who am I
and how could I

Who are they
and how could they

Why this pain
why these tears

Looking up at the stars in the sky

Remembering why
remembering why

Who I am
and how I could

Who they are
and how they could

Know this pain
know these tears

Allah knows my fears

Looking up at the stars in the sky

Escape Me

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

tossing and turning

cannot sleep

thoughts of you will not leave

close my eyes and start to dream

there you are in my mind

why will you not escape me?

thinking of what should be

thinking of what could be

longing to see your face

look into your eyes

feel your touch

anticipating growing old with you

all I can think of is you

I Desire

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

sorry Allah for my transgressions

everyday more confessions

my own fault I confess it

Paradise surrounded by tests

Hell surrounded by desire

ya Allah open up my chest

please save me from the Fire

Your Paradise I desire

the Prophets -peace be upon them- I admire

show me the way with Your Light

know I wanna do right

help me win this fight
help me help others

we’re all sisters and brothers

need to learn to love one another

You’re the only One;

there is no other

to You I turn

sorry for everything

know you guided me to siratelmustaqheem

away from the path of the mushirkeen

united with fellow muslimeen

ya Allah please keep me on your deen

I desire to be of Your mumineen

After All

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

after all the lies and lies

all the cries and cries

feeling like I was gonna die

 

time and time again

gave my heart

was apparent from the start

why was it taken and torn all apart?

 

peace and love is gonna rule the world you say

from Allah is peace and love

He rules the world

turning to Him is the only way

 

where are we going and where do we turn?

there is so much to learn

this life is our sojourn

we shall submit to Allah

 from Allah we come from

to Allah we shall return

 

after all

Ease

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

During the misery get down on your knees;

know that after every hardship comes ease (ameen).

Allah helps those in need who follow siratelmustaqheem;

who are kind to fellow Muslimeen.

Allah help me through it all.

Please don’t allow me to fall.

I feel like I have a huge pillar of pressure building on top of me,

if I don’t get this weight lifted off of me.

I know that I can get through it,

all I have to do is trust in Allah and put my mind to it.

Allah helps those

Again

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

feeling like a fool again

don’t know what to do again

trying not to cry again

feeling so much pain again

wanting to be happy again

don’t wanna feel like this ever again

though I’m sure I will again

Sitting back

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

sitting back

trying to relax

wanna put my head back on track

 

don’t wanna hurt

don’t wanna feel pain

though there are lessons to be gained

 

difficult to take all this strain

hear the sounding of a train

wish it could take me away

My Heart Bleeds

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

My heart bleeds

been tortured and wounded

pain of it won’t go away

 

keep trying to heal it

keep trying to deal with it

still bleeding

damaged

can’t stand it

 

wish the pain in my heart would go

seems it’s here to stay

 

can’t wait for the day when all of my pain and sorrow will go away

when it will become illuminated and tuned

 

what a day that will be

when my heart’s pain and torment are set free
