Healing is a Life Process
I deserve you, so I received you.
You are my blessing and my curse.
I gave you my heart, you kept it safe—until you didn’t.
I don’t blame you. It’s not your fault.
I apologize for leaving your side.
For now, only time will tell if you’re the one for me.
But for now, you can still do as you please.
If I can grow and shine without your help,
Please don’t bind us with the loyalty of our son.
As a man, I have become who I am,
A father I certainly will be.
A friend to you, indeed— you’ve already won that.
But to call you my ride or die, that was up to you.
Honestly, you left me abandoned, shattered, and hurt.
As a man, I hold no grudges. My only wish is blessings for you.
Solitary Confinement
Tonight, though I sleep in solitary confinement,
I find emotions I hide,
Scared to show the world, doubting it might hurt my pride.
But tonight, though I sleep with my lonely thoughts,
I find it easy to embrace the feelings and emotions of hard times.
Stitches, battle scars, war wounds—
A reminder that only the strong survive.
Hell ain’t nothing, compared to life.
So Allah, protect me, ‘cause it’s rough.
I’m ready for wherever.
I don’t even fear death anymore.
In search of support, love, and care,
Someone I can trust for life.
Tonight, though I sleep in solitary confinement,
I smile and laugh—a reminder
That my current situation is not my final destination.
