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
Sitting back
November 4th, 2008 by poeticmeadowRamadan is Almost Here
November 4th, 2008 by poeticmeadowThe holy month of Ramadan is almost here.
The marvalous blessings that flow from Allah are drawing near.
My heart feels much cheer.
In my eye is a developing tear.
It’s time to draw near; closer to Allah.
Cleanse yours, tune your heart, and prostrate to your Lord!
The holy month of Ramadan is here!
Fasting
November 4th, 2008 by poeticmeadowFasting, Fasting
abstaining from worldly things
making over the inner-being
feeling hunger, feeling thirst
feeling for others who hurt
being steadfast in prayer
giving charity because you care
doing good deeds so you get more blessings
it’s fasting for Allah
a great pillar of Islam
My Heart Bleeds
November 4th, 2008 by poeticmeadowMy 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
