If light were to be shone upon my life, my humanly blemishes would intervene. Flourishing into a sequence, My need to justify has been defeated. Demolishing the little bits of reason for why I haven’t succeeded. I’ve put my soul out for auction; the sheyateen made a bid… succeeded. Left in the depths of my own pool of mental tribulations, I drown. My body is solely being immersed into the tears of uncertainty. Decaying with humility, My longing for what this Duniya holds seems to be losing its essence alongside everything else we’ve ever known. The reciprocity of our love is tarnishing. The sheer ignorance of our knowing yet ignoring is weakening our faith, and defeating the reason of our existence. We often promise ourselves to turn to our creator, Sometime before judgment day, but after the death of our kin. And so we procrastinate until we are resurrected In the state in which we have demised in. I find it absurd yet insanely true that We refuse to accept that in which we’ve been told until we notice it for ourselves. Kinda like, being heart broken by the mere thought of "him leaving you", knowing that it’d happen, but subconsciously, you store that thought for some other time to ponder on until it’s been re-born, and it finally happens. How can I possibly pass my exam, when I’ve barely studied? How can I possibly face my Lord, when I barely know? How can I justify my actions, when actions are but by intention? How can I love my creator, without pondering over his creation? |
