A single's Tapestry

A single's Tapestry
[i] [color=Navy] My being is bombarded with images
Of flirtatious devices
Billboards,
Commercials
Web sites cluttered with
Consumer madness tied to fragments of
My wishful hopes
My fleeting dreams
Empty promises bearing the
Deliverance of my
Soul mate

“Lower your gaze ya nafs”
I struggle to hold on to the
Raft,
As illusions of true love
Stream constant rivers in high
Tide

I am weaving
A single’s tapestry
In a world of jest
Holding on to remembrances
This life is but a Test

Relishing in the highest
Bliss
Adam’s soul was still amiss
A consort he prayed for to
Realize
The bitter sweetness of love
The cooling waters for his
Thirsty eyes

I pray for strength as
I make my way through
This earth’s fires
Yusuf denied Zuleikha’s
Passionate desires
Forfeited His freedom
Denounced false love
As Deceit swallowed only
By liars

In pairs we are created
Our search for tranquility
Temporarily Insatiated

Yet for those who know
It is only in True Love’s nest
Our weak souls finally lie at rest

Yet for those who know
it's only within the eternal glow
Of loving the perfect embodiment
Of the very Best
That makes us realize only
HE
is worthy
Of our soul’s conquest.


I am simply weaving
A single’s tapestry
In a world of jest
Let’s hold on to remembrances
This life is nothing but a fleeing test.
