Brighter Day's

I’m striving, my love, for brighter days,  
To walk with you on life’s better ways.  
With every breath, I lift your name,  
In prayers to Allah, a sacred flame.

I seek His mercy, His guiding light,  
To bring you close in love’s pure might.  
Through countless trials, I tread and fight,  
To craft for you a world so right.

Janid wears struggles like a crown,  
No burden too heavy to pull him down.  
In silence, he labors, through nights so cold,  
Chasing the dreams that your heart holds.

With trembling hands and humbled soul,  
I build our future, my only goal.  
Each hardship faced, each tear concealed,  
A promise of love, by faith is sealed.

Bear patience, my beloved , hold on tight,  
For every step brings our dream to light.  
Through storms, through fire, I’ll endure,  
To give you a life steadfast and pure.

So trust in me and trust in fate,  
My prayers, my love, will navigate.  
I’m striving, my soul mate , with all my might,  
For your dreams to soar and take their flight.

The Dreams Faded

The dreams faded,  
The soul faded.  
I remained—  
Without my remains.  

Fragments of hope scattered  
in the winds,  
once sturdy pillars of belief,  
now crumbling into whispers.  

I reached for shadows,  
only to find darkness.  
What echoes of me still linger,  
unanswered questions—  
a hollow ache, a quiet unrest.  

The dreams faded,  
the soul faded—  
left me walking  
among the ashes  
of who I thought I was.

When Will My Destiny Bring You to Me?

Oh fate, when will you bring my beloved to me,  
This heart waits in silence, lost and free.  

Through endless nights and endless days,  
I search for signs along winding ways.  

Each dawn whispers promises yet unkept,  
In dreams alone, our vows are swept.  

I've counted moments, each like years,  
Held by hope, yet drowned in fears.  

Oh fate, bring my beloved near,  
For only their presence can dry this tear.  

When will my destiny bring them to me?  
Oh heart, keep faith, let love be free.


Tired Soul

Tired of this road that never seems to end,  
A burden on shoulders, too heavy to mend.  
I tried to be better, to rise and to shine,  
But every step faltered, each effort declined.

My love, she’s weary, her patience worn thin,  
Like a shadow I linger, outside, looking in.  
She’s tired of my presence, my words turned to dust,  
And now all that’s left is this shattered trust.

A smile feels like weight, too heavy to bear,  
And tears? They’re just stories, no one wants to share.  
I’m lost in a silence that grows with each breath,  
Yearning for peace in the arms of sweet death.

Yet somewhere deep down, a voice softly pleads,  
That hope might still linger in the quietest needs.  
But darkness surrounds, and it’s hard to believe,  
That morning can follow a night that won’t leave.

Intentions

My intentions are pure, no malice inside
Yet I’m being ruined, crushed by the tide

I dreamt of goodwill with every step I took  
But my desires went unseen, no one gave a look  

I wished peace for all, just a moment of rest  
But in return, my heart carried only unrest  

I hid my tears behind every smile I made  
Yet no one saw the sorrow that stayed  

I wanted to see them happy, free from pain  
But my prayers vanished, like whispers in rain  

This question haunts my mind again and again  
Why do my pure intentions bring me only pain?  

My heart is sincere, but all I receive is scars
Each effort I make shatters like fallen stars.

Head is Heavy

Head is heavy with the load of pressure,  
The pressure that I bought unwillingly.  
A burden passed from hands I trust,  
Now rests on me, relentlessly.

They say it's life, this endless fight,  
To pay the debts that hold me tight.  
Each step I take, a sigh of pain,  
And every dream, a fading light.

Once I walked with hopes held high,  
But now I stumble, wonder why.  
The weight of bills, the cost of time,  
Leaves me drowning in a silent cry.

Middle-class dreams, now feel so far,  
Crushed beneath this heavy bar.  
I wear a smile, though deep inside,  
I'm lost in waves I can't outride.

Depression whispers in my ear,  
You'll never win, it's all too near.  
I long for peace, but find despair,  
In every shadow, every stare.

I didn’t ask for this, nor choose,  
The life where I was born to lose.  
But still I stand, though frail and small,  
Fighting debts that never fall.

Perhaps one day, I’ll rise above,  
With strength unknown, and unseen love.  
But for now, I carry on,  
In a world where hope seems almost gone.
