NO POINT IN SEEKING APPROVAL FROM MAN WHEN A CENTURY FROM NOW WE'D BE NAUGHT BUT FORGOTTEN MEMORIES

DO GOOD AND CARRY ON, ONLY THING YOU'D LEAVE BEHIND IS RIPPLES OF YOUR GOOD DEEDS THAT'LL ECHO ON

EXAMPLES FOR YOUR BLOODLINE TO FOLLOW, NO GOOD OR LITTLE DEED YOU SHOULD TAKE FOR GRANTED!
NO POINT IN BEING RIGHT OR BREAKING BONDS OVER ARGUMENTS THAT WON'T MATTER WHEN WE'RE ALL SIX FEET UNDER

NO GUARANTEE IN REACHING THE SUNSET,
LIVE AND LET GO!
FIGURES TO CORPSES TO BONES TO DUST!

-

And what is for us in this life
Except a temporary illusion.

Temporary the pain as is the joy,

At the end of the road
No first prize for riches earned

Time like us all, fades away
Will it feel like a century lived
Or a short day that passed us by

Regardless,
Only your deeds ripple on
Long after you're gone
Do good and Carry on

Just as we were
Once again, we will be
Non-existent!

-

Was it ever worth it doe?

Regret weighs heavy on your soul

Wishing you would have let it go

Wishing you'd have loved them more

Stars that lost their glow

Their warmth touches you no more

Distant they are from you now

Figures to memories

LIVE, LOVE AND LET GO!!

"Someone's dead!"

I jump from my bed, 'A bad dream?', I think to myself.

Its 4 am, corridor lights are on, i find it odd.

Before I even fidget, i hear sobs, i stare through the transparent curtain down the corridor.

I see my sister, standing still, back laid up against the wall, i slowly walk up to her, half in fear of what she has to say.

"Why are you crying?", I ask in my half sleepy voice as i rub my eyes.

She lifts up her head off the ground, looks me dead in the eye, and answers," He's left us!!".

"A dream come true?!" I think, before i walk off in shock. Left speechless by three words, I take a seat and stare into space, dumbfounded.

I wanna cry to help ease the pain, but i've already been crying ever since he left home, 3 months of me coming home to an empty space in our once shared wardrobe.

The feeling of missing him and a strange feeling that kept telling me he's never coming back used to get me all the time, was all just a feeling till i woke up from a vague dream, a man without a face in a white thobe!!

"Someone's dead!"..

Don't usually do this,
#HappyMothersDay and that got man feeling like a fraud

Only a day for a Queen? PLEASE!
Who bleeds and breathes just so we could LIVE
In peace, comfortably chasing after 'GOALS'
When we've only ever been her only MISSION!

Part of her in our veins forever flows,
Cherish her light before her final GLOW!

ADVICE GIVEN TO IBN ABBAS AFTER HE LOST HIS FATHER,
"... THE REWARD YOU WOULD RECEIVE(IN PATIENCE) AFTER AL-ABBAS IS BETTER THAN HIM AND ALLAH IS BETTER THAN YOU TO AL-ABBAS"


إِنَّمَا يُوَفَّى الصَّابِرُونَ أَجْرَهُمْ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ }  [الزمر
10]

"Those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure"

Stress levels up, over temporary shit

Upsetting your sense of peace
Over things out of your control

Ain't no guarantee you'd be happy
Even if all your dreams fell in place

At the end of the road
Possessions light on scale

So LIVE in the moment,
And unburden your Soul.

-

Been riding that crowd high
Temporarily distracted, living a lie

High all fades when you're alone
Struggling to cope on your own

Now reality is back hounding you
Lost amidst the storm again, clueless

Too busy chasing temporary thrills
But you forgot to water your soul 🗣

-

Laying under the night sky
Searching for a glimmer of hope

Thoughts racing against time
Right before i gave it all up

Something caught my eye
Right among the stars
i found a dime ⭐☄

With the world so set on tearing itself apart, it don't seem like such a bad thing to me to want to put a little bit of it back together.
