in fact it just sooo true that it hit straight to the heart..
It is as if like my heart is surrounded by a hard shell
One that seems unbreakable
It hardens more as time goes by
While spreading through my body
And soul
I seek out comfort in others
But I am disappointed every time
Everyone hears but no one listens
No one understands
And no one sees
Not you
Or you
Or you
But You know what it is that hurts
And how this loneliness on this Earth is a burden
I have let You down over and over again
Yet Your mercy remains
I have ran away from You over and over again
Only to come back and find that You haven’t left
And Your mercy remains
I’m not worthy of Your blessings
I don’t thank You enough
Nor do I praise You as much You deserve to be praised
Yet Your mercy remains
I have wronged myself
I create mountains of sins
I run around in circles
Seeking comfort elsewhere
And Your mercy remains
I lay my head to sleep at night
Becoming lifeless
When the sun rises
You allow me to come back
And while I get up to face a new day
I don’t express my gratefulness
Simply by saying the word “Alhamdulillah”
Yet Your mercy remains
When will I learn?
When will I truly wake up?
When will I realize that I am passing through this world as a stranger?
That this isn’t my abode to eternally live in
That this world is a prison for a believer
And paradise for another
What will it take?
Rid this darkness from my soul that I have brought upon myself
Crack the walls that I have created around my heart
Allow Your light to illuminate through
You have listened
And answered
You have blessed me day after day with more time to
Change
Repent
Forgive
And prepare
You have shielded me continuously
And I am not as grateful as much as I should be
And I do not praise You as much as You deserve to be
Yet Your mercy remains.
