When I heard -2-

When I heard My Beloved values generosity

I turned away from the worldly greed

Giving away things I am in need

Losing my selfish self

Questioning my every purpose

Till I captured my worst self-enemy



When I heard My Beloved favors the poor

Among them he chosen all his prophets

From the poor I made my allies

Till poverty became my companionship

And wealth became my life toughest tests



When I heard My Beloved delayed my gift

To bring me heedless to him

On my knees, I stayed awaken all night

My mind moved, roaring like thunder

Across the mountains and valleys

In God Glory I wonder

didn't want to go to sleep

Worried what if he satisfied my need

Would my eyes for him stop to weep?

Would my heart get harden killing this soften seed?

When every time he broken my heart

He overwhelmed me with his Mercy and grace

Bringing me closer with the light of his face

Oh God!!!

How can life ever be imagined without you being on my side?

The treasure of your strong existence in this emptiness

The harmony of your presence in this loneliness  

The fulfillment and peace in your constant remembrances
