Poetry for the Beloved ﷺ




i am a runaway hostage to myself
the culprit and victim
at the same time

 i’m a poor pauper
nothing! nobody!
but nobody itself is too much of SOMEBODY

 lone and still
trying to hear myself
the quieter you become
the more you are able to hear yourself

 this heart knows deep inside
there is an undiscovered Treasure
a Perfected Jewel
a lofty Prize for the seekers
a gold mine of Infinity

 my Heart
a blessed Seal
an overflowing flood
Of Ibrahim

 i close my eyelids and finally

 my Eyes open
and wiTHin

 i see You are a thousand Suns
i see You travelling faster than light itself
i see the planets aligned in harmony
i see cream crusted bagels and apple trees swaying
i see the deep trenches of the ocean
i see a school of mackerel swimming

 All in Harmony
i am the Harm
and You bring the Harmony
inside of Me

 You are nothing but The Sun
You burn so bright and gleam like the Moon
You are a shoreless sea
You ascended the 7 heavens
Face to face with the Truth

 The Truth using the Truth for the Truth
Your Light burning so bright till
there is no more night
that can hurt me
or day
that can blind me

 Your Light emanates beyond the horizon
and all the signs point to You.

 they say that love leaves clues
my Heart, can't ignore it
everywhere i look
there is only
You.

 this heart, Your Zawiya in Istiqomah
Remaining after Annihilation

 my heart, a thousand shades of sorrow
but Your Smile


heals All!
