Ascend

To be human is to be hugely affected by what is happening in the world

Sadness, depression and grief may linger in your heart

Colours fade into one tone of grey

You may even gasp at the edge of despair, sometimes

For one breath of hope, you’d give your life

* * *

 
* * *

Often, you may question your sanity

You may wake up screaming at night

Your pillow soaked with tears streaming

You may wonder if it is all but a bad dream,

A nightmare rather

Or is it a 3D horror movie in which you’re sucked into somehow

An observer, helplessly watching

* * *

* * *

Your mind rages in furious anger!

Did I read that correctly?

Did I truly hear the little girl saying such words?

Is that world for real?

Are those perpetrators even human?

Did I land in the wrong universe?

* * *

* * *

Volcanoes erupt in your chest

Battles blaze in your head

and you,

YOU… are crushed in between

* * *

* * *

Watching in curious apprehension

You try to regain bearings

To be a voice of reason

Amidst this madness

 * * *

* * *
You hold your fearful heart, tight

You take your mind by the hand

Hush hush its flying thoughts

Tap its shoulder gently and whisper

Dear mind, do you mind to step aside for a moment

With all due respect, your knowledge is but a speck

Infinitesimal

Oh raging mind calm down

You view the world through a keyhole

You try to squeeze infinity in a soup bowl

Then cry like a baby, the bowl is too small

* * *

* * *

Oh foolish mind step down

You are not the author, you are not the hero

Not even an actor, or a comma in the script

Stop behaving as if you’re the main character or a superstar

* * *

* * *

You want to know the story?

O the story!

Once upon a no-space and non-time

Written on a no-place on plane ∅

A glorious tale with two letters of Light

BE… and it was

An exquisitely-smart explosion

Shattered nothingness into being… Boom…Boom

Time is born

Finely-tuned matter…poof… poof… appeared

A masterpiece

* * *

* * *

Layer upon layer, the cosmos unfolds

Time and space intertwine, majestic embrace

Pages scripted, laws encrypted

Supernovas sprinkled, stars twinkled

Galaxies and atoms hold hands, in a prayerful dance

Their pounding hearts flutter

Dazzled in adoration

Breathtaking beauty

Impatiently awaits to be discovered

Thus the story began

Imagine the ending, in a world unseen !

 * * *
 
* * * * * * * * * *
Mind humbled, retreats in silence

Heart throbbing, awestruck, serene

Soul weeps of joy, of love, of gratitude

* * * * * * * * * *

* * *

Oh bewildered me beware

Be conscious of the soul you are

Listen to the songs humming inside

Heighten your inner resolve with faith and hope

Tighten your wounds with patience abound

Change what’s within to change outside

Be the one you dream others would be

Fill your heart with kindness refined

With tender care hold your inner child

* * *

* * *

Extend your hands to the One Most High

Thus sings my soul

Receive agape love, bestow far and wide

Forevermore

* * *

* * *

Spread your wings above the clouds, rise up and fly

The story unfolds, the plot is thickening, but don’t you mind

Smile to the rainbow, again… The End is worthwhile

Sings my old soul

Sings my old soul

* * *

‘∅’ read as ‘phi’. In mathematics, ∅ is the empty set, it’s the unique set having no elements; its size or cardinality is zero.

Example: Set X = {}. It is also called a void set or null set.

Dima, my beloved
A precious heart, a soul sublime
A heavenly angel floating by
My refuge when going gets tough
My safe-haven soulmate
A gifted child,​ magic-wand fingers
Everything you touch, a masterpiece supreme
* * *
Reem, my beloved
​A smile from ear to ear

No matter how hard life is

No matter how severe

 

A walking heart with gorgeous grin
A meadow of kindness, of empathy a well of tears
* * *
 
Nadia my beloved
An open book, what you see is what you get
No grudges, no hate, no matters how hurt
A river of love flowing untamed
No obstruction stands in its way
Your joy is being there for whomever in need
* * *
Sweet sisters, my beloved
What did I do to deserve you!

Just Imagine!


Waiting

By threshold of existence

Bewildered and spellbound

 

 

Watching

Over threshold of death

Perplexed and mystified

 

 

Meandering

By threshold of lunacy

One foot in and one foot out

 

 

Wondering

At the threshold of love

Awestruck and mesmerized

Imagine

Just imagine

 

If only

You and I

Could leap over

Cross the line

On the Road Again

“Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.” — Maya Angelou
