It Is Me and You

Staying awake when all I want is to sleep
My face is on like a mask when inside i only weep

The silence in the house is heavy like thunder 
My thoughts are all over the place
When will you come home is my biggest wonder

The People i meet in the Streets have no face
I Feel like an alien just dropped in this strange place

Despite roof over my head, homeless am i in my mind
Without you beside me 
I have no peace to find

Like the broken half of a life so complete
I'm aimlessly lost in an existance with heavy weight on my feet

The longing is constant
during night and day
My prayers are in tears 
Allah please bring him home to stay

Faith is what carries me through
When all I want is to spend eternity with you
Insha Allah it will soon be true

My love, it is me and you.

Wow, Kashmir! To say I'm impressed is an understatement. So many emotions in this free write! I just have one question what does the line, "Insha Allah it will soon be true" mean? Does it have something to do with the Jewish religion? Thank you great write -Bernard

So glad to read back from you Bernard. Emotions shall never be confined to the hearts, its a blessing that we can write them down in parts. Insha Allah it will bd true means if Allah wills it will true soon, to be together with each other. As a Muslim if I intend or plan to do anything we say insha Allah and before we start we say Bismillah and when we end we say Alhamdullilah.. Much love from Kashmir.
