Life― Our only Chance

I'm in utter pain and total dismay

And I dont know what to say

But the one thing I can do is pray

With every second that es each day

My heart never turns away

Or ever lead me astray

From that path ; The Straight Way

That leads me to Jannah;

My ultimate stay

So before my hair turn grey

Or before its time for me to lay

Helpless on that bed called the grave

I need to be stong and brave

And as the sun shines I need to make my hay

And I need to stop my play

And turn to the One who made me from clay

And lit my heart from a single merciful ray

Of hope and love so that I may

Him and give Praise

In the Only chance I've got

In the Only Life before it's lost

Its the pain in my heart that i just can't say

In words or letters or in long essays

Its just I thought I'd show people the right way

Little did I know that I was the one who was lead astray

Now I don't know how to catch hold of that ray

Falling from the skies above our heads

Yet nobody sees it, busy in their play

But there are some who hold on to it as they pray

I just start to wonder how do they

Let themselves away

Along with the storms in which they lay

But I'm the one who just stops and craves

To stand against all the storms and waves

I'll fight till my last day

I'll fight the storm I need to slay

Against all odds I'll play to win the game

All alone taking the One Almighty's name

In the Only chance I've got

In the Only Life before it's lost

Till The Earth Embraces My Soul-[B]

Till The Earth Embraces My Soul

I find you in the writings

that you wrote whilst awaiting

the angel of death

and in your desperate pleas

to the One Who owns your soul

and your every breath

but you'll find me every where

in your parents' albums

of when you were a precious first

cherished with the best

although I lived through it

you will never

you have left your zeal

in my memories

of shifting dreams

from touching the highest peak

to becoming a scientist

oh and there was a time

when I was a little less of an anomaly

when I didn't need to have the strength

to make friends

because I, no, not I

but because you,

you loved yourself

and couldn't care less

of who decides to you

in your crazy journeys to a world

that could only be in your head

you left your words

in between the silence

of many audiences

sometimes your parents,

your teachers, your friends,

but mostly with me

I bore the weight of your patience

whilst you continue to bear

the weight of the world

I keep trying to escape

even though I cannot love you

you continue to live

even though I can't believe you

you continue to dream

you looked for me

too far ahead in our life

when you were five

I was ten

and when you turned eleven

I was sixteen

and when I thought there's nothing more

than eighteen in growing up,

you remained stuck at fifteen all the way

to when I actually crossed twenty

and now it feels like we'll forever be lost in life

feeling useless at twenty five

but you'll still survive

even though you'll leave a farewell letter

and a will with nothing substantial to count for

but a broken apology

to those who you wished to treat better,

everytime I touched

the depths of despair

and shattered like tempered glass

returning back to a pile of sand and silica,

you'll still hold on

you'll learn the meaning of the nights

when the daylight falls upon the roads

I could never name

you'll see that with hardship is ease

and with hardship there will undoubtedly be ease

and you will be better than

all that I have written for me

you'll take tiny steps and tiny leaps

and the world will continue to suffocate you

but none can save you

from the words that disturb the frequency

between your heart and mind

unless I step into the life

that matters more than this world would ever

and live for the One

Who owns the heavens and the earth

and everything in between

and everything beyond

so let's continue

to survive

even if you and I fail

even if I feel hollow

and frail

even if I may have forgotten you

along the way

let's wait for tomorrow

let's give you and me

another chance

when He who can take life

and give it again,

gives us so many more chances

to redeem ourselves

till the earth embraces us

help me survive for one more day

Like ten years ago poetry of yours still makes me cry :sparkling_heart:

May Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala always guide you and may He reward you for your efforts in this world and if not, then in the Hereafter. May we seek forgiveness and sustenance only in Him and pray that He forgive our shortcomings. May He give you the strength needed to always pick yourself up. :sparkling_heart:

I think 10 years ago you, would have a lot to be proud of. Because in the short years I have known you, I have ired you more every day. 🥰

Ameen :sob: :purple_heart: :purple_heart: :purple_heart:

I pray the same for you and may Allah bless you with more than what you ask for and may He guide us to meet in this world as friends for His sake and in Paradise too. 🤗 :purple_heart: :purple_heart: :purple_heart:

Thank you for your kindest words and . I honestly don't even want to imagine my life without you. (Even if it may be that I am a silly friend and go a little overboard with my quirky-ness XD)
