Help Me,Love
I am a distant Island
At the far end of the land
You revere its cold breeze in the day
And long for its warmth at night
So far away, you could only imagine
You know its origin and its potential
As it knows yours
This Island thinks;
It thinks of you in the day, at night and every time between
And wants that of you too.
Engulf yourself in its awe
And long for it forever
A longing of Love
The sea beneath its feet
Thus sways its sands, its leg around
Its needs you with him
To help stand firm
Lest it’s exhume by the ocean
This sea is shy;
It is shy of your empathetic heart
It is shy of your conviction,
your radiant face, your endowments.
It knows not how not to offend you
Nor how to transpose love upon you
or how to please you.
Do come guide this island
For it needs you by its side to withstand the ocean currents
It needs you that you become another Island beside
That you create with him other Islands
And hold more firmly against the ocean
It needs you
That you help it
In obeying its Lord,
God,Allah
Together you enter the Eternal bliss
Of thine Lord Allah in Jannah.
