Poems – Shahid Abbas

Dear Almighty

We humbly beg your blessing
Forgetting to ask
We are helpless
Only you can save us

Throughout an ungrateful universe
People are dying
Souls savaged
The world has closed upon us
Lives ruined…..

Dear Allah protect us
Listen to the voices of the innocent still in lockdown
Fear fear everywhere Humans refusing to be human
Death wanders like shadow

You are the real King
Omnipresent
You alone can do for us
What we mortals only dream of
We are here to serve you
To do as you ask
We believe in You
Please forgive us

Darkness pervades
You are the pure light
Please show us the way
Almighty forgive us
We have forgotten your love
Roads are riddled with bodies
The graveyards filled

Dear God have mercy on us We have forgotten
Only you can do the impossible
No matter we have worldly goods
We remain helpless and powerless
The heartless owners of universe spewing their empty lies
They do what they want
We are nothing to them
To you we are everything
Please save us
Only you can..
