Peace at Last





Peace At Last

Peace descends,
And you can -
breathe once again,

And you are -
At home, where
you finally belong.

In this - desert land
of hopes and dreams,
You are lost and you are found.

Where the - sun burns
life back into your bones,
and the winds wash away
the scars of the old.

Where the - blessed saints
have tread
and you truly feel
Quran is your abode.

Where there is union
of heart and of soul
and you're soaring through the skies

When you step out
and the whole world smiles
and you're bursting at the seams
and you know you are at
peace at last.

Deteriorating skeletons half buried beneath ferns helped form the uneven ground. The bitter call of the wind caressed the humid air like icy fingers. Ebony berries dripping toxic juices hung from disfigured bramble...

Salvation

Salvation Charred. A blackened mass of flesh. Beaten, battered, bruised. A writhing imposter - stamped to your chest. Burning it shreds through your veins You can't get it out. it pulsates, writhes a beating drum pleading to be heard. it placates when you look away. if you don't look it doesn't exist - but it always comes back. Consuming. Ravenous. In your head. Tearing through your thoughts. Poison in your blood. You can't get it out - Until. Blinding. A shimmering light Implodes through the twilight, Surpassing a dwindling Sun. A salvation corroding that Rusted organ that wails to Breathe 'Allahu' once again. Healing. That salvation that stirs the Longing of love that buried itself So deep within you It ceased to exist. Renewing. Purifying. Fighting the fire of neglect with The fire of hope. The salvation that gives solace In the dark of the night That triggers the tears in your eyes, The rep...
