I'm ready
Im ready…. Im totally ready.
I sinned…. I prayed.
I kissed the blackstone and cried by the kaaba.
I wasted infinite years in lust and indulgence.
I earned some money and spent even more and more.
I suppose that I was a good friend, saved some from boredom by naughty and gossipy tales.
I worked, over worked, postponed work and even begged for work.
I read, I wrote and I’m sure that I’ll greatly miss doing this again.
I loved, I hated, I l forgave, I didn’t care, I screamed and then at last I became numb.
I’m ready…I’m ready to leave.
I will miss you all.
I don’t know what will happen, and sorry I won’t be able to tell.
Will it be a nap? A long sleep? A dream? I hope it won’t be a nightmare!
You will miss me, I’m sure…just as I missed all those who went there.
But where is there? Is it even a place…or is it just a different state?
So many preachers shouted and warned us, but I think it should be ok.
I have never harmed anyone and whatever I did was not intentional.
Am I starting to confess? Too many questions will be on that day.
Will I’ll be burnt for something silly I said or did, I hope this won’t be the way.
Im ready…..Im totally ready.
Im not running away from endless responsibilities, children to raise and bills to pay.
If this is a short phase, a period, a journey, then let me reach the final stage.
Am I longing to the eternal happiness? The peace of mind and everything we don’t have here and now.
I had my share of laughs and a way bigger share of tears.
I feel content and happy, now there is no reason for fear.
I wasted opportunities, I let people down, I tried to do my best but most of the time I was lazy and lame.
I loved the sea, the desert….
Do I have time to add more, I still have a lot to say.
Im ready… am I ready? no Im not ready…. No one is ever ready to leave...
