Realization

Realization

A Poem by Akib

I stumbled upon a dream,
Left awake in the middle of night
With fear in my bone, 
And only darkness in my sight
Deep inside my heart
I heard a whisper clear,
What am I taking
When I'm done here?
I thought I had such a life
Full of worldly glow
But then I realized
The dead emptiness below.
What am I doing?
And what is my purpose?
And what will happen
When life pass off.

See, there isn't much to us,
We are just puppets in the world
And the world is not forever
And life's too short for lust;
So why do we keep fighting
And cursing our own kind,
When our only purpose in life 
Is to serve and praise The Divine.

I see blood of innocence spilling,
Over screams and cries of fear.
And Father burying his son;
Mother's eyes in tear.
Then there's alcohol pouring,
And the devils dancing naked.
They can't see death smiling
Waiting over their cascade.
Their eyes so covered with greed
Blinded by world's shine;
Sad it is, they fail to see
Peace lies in Allah's shrine.
