"This Gravity Is Weighing Me Down And Before You Know, It'll Have Me Buried Where I Can't Hear Your Regretful

"This gravity is weighing me down and before you know, it'll have me buried where I can't hear your regretful sounds. But you've got nothing to fear, I'd have already prayed to Allah to forgive you and hopefully He hears. Forgive me if I've hurt or done you any wrong, because that wasn't my intention to start with at all. Pray that Allah takes me only when He's pleased; because with my hands, I don't want my life to be ceased. So when I'm gone, pray. Pray that Allah be pleased with the little good I've done during my stay; because surely I'm a sinner, but that doesn't mean I'm no repenter. I'll have lived with a lot of sorrow that I'd swallowed which left me with nothing but to feel hollow. My soul here, doesn't find a moment of peace, pray that in the Hereafter it'll dwell in an eternity with nothing painful anymore but ease." - Manaalficient . . . . . . . . . #writersofinstagram #writing #writersofig #writingcommunity #wordsofwisdom #wordporn #wordgasm #wordstoliveby #poetsofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poetsofig #poetry #poetryisnotdead #positivevibes #quotestoliveby #potd #qotd #quoteoftheday #lifequotes #lovequotes #sadquotes #relationshipgoals #tumblr #relationshipquotes #tumblrquotes #blogger #spilledink #instaquote #writerstag #thoughtfvl (at *caption) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAX-tizlP7d/?igshid=44xon39ip36l

I have a hundred love poems to pen at my fingertips, something clicks and there are words I'm scared to put out, as if I'm protecting myself from hoping a bit too much from life. It's only fair to dream, even if it doesn't come true.

Dark Melanin

If dark skin wasn't worthy of praise

The scriptures written in pale papers

of holy books wouldn't have been in dark ink.

Aey Rabb,

Tere azaab ke aur mere beech,

mashriq aur maghrib ke faasle daal de.

Teri rehmat aur mere beech,

zameen aur aasman ke bhi faasle mita de.

I have learned, if anything

To not harbour grudges.

Time is vast but life is short

To let regrets and guilt reside in us.

So hold not a place for resentment

Make no space for ego

Let not pride sit in an atom

Sit across your true self and question

who's number comes to mind to ring

Who's wellbeing concerns you to ask of

Who's company are you eager to sit with

Who's laughter your belly aches for

"Who all do you wish to be with now?"

Lord knows they crave your warmth too.

Depression makes you forget you're of value.

You matter, without anyone else's input.

You matter, for simply existing.

You matter, just because.

You matter, without any reasoning.
