Time 1/4/21

"Time"

Unfathomable occurrences,
Lost days, vanishing hours,
Depleting seconds and robbed moments.
Gone ……Bygone as the entity is ever fleeting.
 
Damned in my effort to clasp on tight,
Clench it in the ever-weakening fist of mortality,
Hold it, cease it, pause the depletion,
Standstill the wastage.
 
Sadly, failed to embrace the fact,
It’s a downtrodden effort.
The flow of seconds will never cease,
Against my gloom or anyone’s gleam.
 
Ethos of this sonnet lies in,
Submitting to the fluency of these gliding moments,
Sagacity of hope and effort holds ground only,
When value the gift of Time.
 
Indulge in conscious efforts to benefit,
Be blessed with this limited, perishable favor,
Before the opportunity plummets,
The rhythm stops, halts and we be Gone.

"Fiat"

My Love’s fulfillment…

Is in what I offer

Me, My heart, My soul

All belong to you !

Let go of grudges

Nourish the hollow in you

Be the prote

Comfort of my heart

Return me my sparkles

Express your feelings

Your personal expressions

Your heartfelt courtesies

Your little kindness

Aren’t you proud of me?

Choices are few

Either stay stiffly

Or put vigor in soul

Bridge the gap

Love while you can

There is nothing in world

That will replace ‘Me’

See my love

Feel my sadness

Shelter me from the cold

That keeps hurting my soul

Lend me your warmth

Hold my hand

Keep my faith intact

Make time for the loved one

Elevate my confidence

Support my Iman

Life is a bit uncanny

A constant hidden sore

You’re missing presence

Take this time

To reflect upon…..

The joys you missed

The hugs you rejected

The love you ignored

……My Love

My Prayers

My warm wishes

Will be ever around….

But ‘I’

Might not come back

And keep missing you from far.

“…But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you…” [Quran 2:216]

Blest surprises,

Profuse smiles,

Like blooms in snow,

Feeling preserved,

Forlorn drowning, deferred?

Morning dew for dying,

Or perky grass defying, frosty gloom,

Your vigor ~

~ My love.

 

The bliss in laughter,

Nature matures heedlessly,

Sweetness unwonted,

Peccable passion,

Blind sense of reliance,

Trusting hearts,

Shear favoritism,

 Oh wait.....

......No judgment endowed.


The prism of life,

That exhaustive shine,

Another beginning,

Chance rendered,

Questing an approbation,

...........Would I or Wouldn't I

Be deified ~ cherished

Or

Penalized for trusting.

"بِسْمِ اللهِ، تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللهِ، وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ"

Bismillaahi, tawakkaltu 'alallaahi, wa laa hawla wa laa quwwata ‘ illaa billaah.
In the Name of Allah, I have placed my trust in Allah, there is no might and no power except by Allah.

(Abu Dawud 4/325, At-Tirmidhi 5/490)

Love was overlooked,

Rationale took over.

Brain governed the Heart,

What a nonsensical act?

A demonic memory,

The pain of rejection,

The dismay,

The startled eyes,

Can't forget any !

The time wasn't lenient enough.

Me and my humiliation,

Unconscionable Heart,

Till to date,

Wishing on the lost star,

For one last chance,

A pint of mercy,

A hint of adorning,

Only....

If you come,

One last time,

And

Make me feel,

'LOVED'...............Again.

 

And brought together their hearts. If you had spent all that is in the earth, you could not have brought their hearts together; but Allah brought them together. Indeed, He is Exalted in Might and Wise.

(Al Quran:- 8:63)

A tear in my eye, a blow to the heart,

Dispel all doubts, of moral immunity,

Doubting the power that warrants the liberty,

Enslaving my being.


That smirks of fate, that merciless blow,

Spells out doom ahead, envisioning the future.

Insinuating the prejudice against,

Devouring my pride.


Immeasurable bounties, eyes perceive all,

Multiplicity of deliberate disobedience,

Bounded diversions, abounding in vitality,

Introspecting my-self.


Submitting the vanity, condonation requested,

Knowing your Excellence, Ar-Rahman ~ Ar-Rahim,

Cure the diseased heart of its palpable absurdity,

The Pardoner, The Loving, The Just, The Most Exalted
