[i]Awakening Reflections

I contemplate creation as I move in the daily rhapsody of
My existence
The perfection of this universe never fails to send shivers
Through my essence
I stare at the ever changing shades of skies
The rising of the sun
Resplendence of the moon
The mountainous heights
The pulsating depths
The very breath that sighs
And finally dies

Each atom vibrating through
It’s destiny
Magnifying the Most High

How many signs of our Lord
Can we justly deny?

A path has been laid for all
Of mankind
Our potential to reach
To rise and to teach
All lingers inside
Waiting for the day that
We decide to become
UN Blind

Mental stagnation has ruined
Our minds
Imposters, idols, scattered senses
The dajjal era finally commences
As the elite implement their corrupt
Systems
Working hard to keep our spiritual
Worths depleted
As they excavate mother earth
To squandor the
Wealth for their unquenchable
Thirst
Working hard to keep our spiritual worths
Depleted
Dajjal’s mission is almost completed

Techniques constantly finessed to project
Lies
Keeping humanity too busy to hear
Their heart’s survival cries
Living for an illusive dream
Driven by our nightmarish reality
Hands raised to the sky
Trying to capture life’s true quality
As our true purpose lies like broken
Shards
Reflections mirror the tears coming out
Of our souls’ lonely eye
Potential energy lies wasted
As we slowly and painfully die

I reflect on the perfection of the
Universe
Ceaselessly wondering why
Praying for the day we will
Collectively wake up and realize
Time is of essence
And our essence is begging to
Rise

Waiting for the day we will
Realize
In our depths each atom vibrates
Magnifying the Most High

A sign in front of Allah we
Will never be able to justly
Deny.

Mashallah Maliha you have such a talent with words :-*

Unfortunately the situation you describe is all too real and depressing  :'(

"FaBiy Ayyi A'Ala Irubbiku Ma Tukaddibaan"(Ar-Rahman-13)
(Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you deny?)

That's the first thought that came to my mind when I read the first half of the poem.That Surah ,subanallah always makes me cry.

Wassalam alaykum :-)

I love that surah too, it is soooo beautiful! But it is always so difficult to say and memorize! Sa'd Al-Ghamidi says it really beautifully:
