I hope the future greets me softer someday too...

There was a time I wore a heavy soul, Where broken thoughts had quietly taken control. I was cruel to myself, yet kind to every face, Smiling for the world while losing my own place. I carried storms behind laughter in my eyes, Turned pain into silence, truth into disguise. I gave joy away while my own heart bled, Fighting endless wars inside my head. But now I’m learning sunlight can remain, That healing still exists after so much pain. I try to choose peace instead of fear, To live in the moment, to stay fully here. Yes, the past still knocks some nights uninvited, And tears still appear when old wounds are ignited. But I no longer sit there breaking apart, I gather my pieces, I soften my heart. And even with no vision of what waits for me, I trust the path Allah wrote that I cannot yet see. With all of my heart, my soul, and my mind, In Him alone, true peace I find. For I believe His plans are gentler than mine, Even the delays will make sense in time. And maybe every hardship I onc...

People who wait for you to tie your shoe. People who shift closer to you when you're subconsciously moving away while you're walking next to them. People who smile at you as soon as you make eye contact. People who seek you out to tell you some good news. People who listen to you and hear you and understand you. Do not make the mistake of ever convincing yourself that everyone is a bad person when you yourself have done this and not even thought twice about it.

For when you trust His perfect decree...

Leave behind what’s meant to fade, Trust the plans Allah has already made. For every tear that stained your night, He’s written ease, He’s written light. Don’t chain your heart to what is gone, Your Lord has better to pass upon. In every loss, a mercy lies, In every fall, your soul can rise. What’s written left was never yours, What’s coming next holds open doors. Have sabr today, let your قلب believe, For what’s ahead will never deceive. The past is gone, don’t let it stay, It steals your peace, it clouds your way. Turn to your Rabb with hope so true, What’s yet to come is خير for you. You lost something? Then let it be, Your Lord replaces beautifully. For every ache your heart once knew, A better plan is made for you. Let go, move on, don’t look behind, True peace is in a trusting mind. For when you trust His perfect decree, Your future blooms in serenity.🌙

For what is coming toward you is softer...

-
What slipped away was only a chapter, not the story meant for you. For every goodbye you held in tears, a better hello is already on its way. Do not grieve what faded into yesterday, for tomorrow carries gentler light. What’s written ahead of you is kinder than what stayed behind. The past may echo with what you lost, but the future whispers with what you’ll gain. And in those quiet whispers, there is a promise of something better. Every ending you cried over was mercy you didn’t yet understand. For what is coming toward you is softer, sweeter, and meant to stay. You didn’t lose it, you were being led somewhere better. Because what’s written for you ahead outshines everything left behind.

That laughter did not just echo in the air...

There was a time I spoke of my dreams the way a child speaks of the stars softly, innocently, with affection in my voice.  I shared them not as a burden, not as a demand, but simply as a piece of my heart. And somewhere along the way, my dreams were misunderstood, and the very thing I had trusted with affection  was turned into something to laugh at. That laughter did not just echo in the air, it echoed inside my chest. And something fragile within me shattered quietly. My intention had been pure. My words had been gentle. But still, they were misunderstood. So slowly I learned to hold my heart back, to keep my dreams folded within my silence. Today, while standing in prayer, I spoke of those same dreams again but this time only to Allah. And suddenly I understood something. Those dreams were never meant to be carried by the world. Where my sincerity was misunderstood, Allah understood it before I even spoke. Where my heart once felt small, He made it feel seen. For I always k...
