How fine the thread of Your love
In this tapestry You weave:
For when I turn to You, You turn to me
Not once reminding me that my
Turning was by
Your leave

This world is my boat
And I cannot wait
To go overboard
Before it's too late
'Cause Your pleasure to me
Is wide like the sea
And all of my pain
Is two drops of rain

Let me be still and silent So my words do not drown The sweet and subtle tones Of your Rahmah coming down
Cobblestone Banter
Khalid, as you’re going Beware of not knowing Who you are talking to Your words may pave The way from your grave To where you’ll be walking to
Mending
Come, broken heart Be mended again Your pain’s a drought Your submission rain
Subtle
True knowledge is subtle Its serving is subtle It’s nourishing if The observing is subtle
Deflatingly
You don’t tell your win-thirsty team Right before the championship game That the English and Science and Math’s where it’s at All this winning and losing’s the same You’ve got eleven months to get it right, plan For eleven more once you get through it Let the wave that’s coming break over you man Now’s the right time to get all into it And remember that you Can say what is right And be idiotic even as you do it I know.
Effect and Cause
Act, for if you don’t, my friend You will have missed a chance to act Don’t act to fashion noble end For that is heedless of the fact That consequence is seas of veils Concealing timeless mysteries Of Will Divine that tilts the scales Of justice done by histories
Awestruck
Don’t be afraid
But be in awe
That you can overcome your fears
In awe of One
Bestowing strength
Intent, resolve and hopeful tears
Reflect
When you reflect on something
Let your sight
Glance upon it
Not collide with it
Squander upon it
In equal parts
“What’s wrong about it?”
“What’s right with it?”
Let your sight not judge
Or fight with it
Leave that part
Up to your heart
For reflection
Holds the weight
Of light
Let your sight
Glance upon it
Not collide with it
Squander upon it
In equal parts
“What’s wrong about it?”
“What’s right with it?”
Let your sight not judge
Or fight with it
Leave that part
Up to your heart
For reflection
Holds the weight
Of light
