Lonely Days






There you are, all by yourself,
Trapped in a box beneath.
Feeling sad that you're all alone
Because it's just you and your deeds.

Wishing with you there was another soul
With whom you won't compete.
That way, you won't be lone 
And surely, you'd be complete.

But you know your wish won't come true
Because for you it's the end of the road.
Now you wonder who'll see you through,
You see no one, and then you mope.



By your garden you should have been buried, so that its fragrance you smell, and its green you see.
By an ocean, so that its splash you hear, and its breeze you feel.
Beneath a tree, so that its fruit you eat, and the heat you wouldn't feel.

Then you think again...
The beauty of it all is above.
Now your heart is filled with pain...
Because you're trapped right there - below.

Your eyes are filled with terror 
As you await a day unknown.
A day when there will be no error,
The day the trumpet will be blown.

    1. May Allah grant your dad peace, forgive his sins and fill his grave with light. May your dad's grave be for him like a garden from the gardens of paradise. This life is indeed vanity.

It's All In Your Eyes

" Look into my eyes" has anyone ever said these words to you? Then it may be that such person already understands that the eye is a window to the heart. Deep connections can be felt with souls by looking at people. No, not at their figures but into their eyes. There's no place to hide once a person has gotten into your eye for the eye is road to your heart. Its all in the eyes. Your thoughts, your words, your emotions - anger, hate, pain, love, fear, agitation, tension the list goes on. Its in the eye. If one is observant, its easy to tell the state of another's emotion just by looking into their eyes. I know if a person hates my guts by the look they give me. I've seen pure admiration in someone else's eyes. I've seen jealousy, distaste, kindness, confusion, deception, love and even lies in the eyes. So I can say from experience that our emotions are in our eyes. But my resolution isn't based on personal experience alone. Research by Adams Ander...

Of course you need to look at the negative and figure a way out, but be careful not to become engrossed in the negative. 2 . Exercise regularly: Take this from me, exercise is a gr...
