There Was Once A Time

Gazing in the sky I see,

Twinkling stars smiling freely,

The air cool and serene,

I know Allah is watching down on me.

There was once a time of grief,

There was once a time of pain,

But who knew?

Not you, not anyone sane.

There was once a time of hurt,

There was once a time of sorrow,

But who cared?

Not you, not anyone wanted to know.

Day by day,

I faced challenges,

Day by day,

I fought savages.

And..

Day by day,

I sought strength,

Day by day,

I sought fortitude.

In the end, 

Storms slowly became sprinkles,

Waves gradually became ripples,

You know why?

Because I know Allah is watching down on me.
