Faith

By Nuha Dadesh

I was feeling conflicted and torn.
"Why am I here ?" "Why was I even born?" 
Pessimistic thoughts were taking over once again;
Life was getting boring and mundane!

But a hopeful thought started to flicker around
And I started to feel safe & sound.
Remembrance of my lord
That's what moved toward
Utter enchantment
Tranquility and contentment.
Relying on Him makes me secure
And my faith is what lets me endure
Whatever calamity comes my way!
And what a grace it is to pray
To the Creator of it all:
The skies, mountains & each rainfall
