Ramadhan is coming
Salaams All, this is my latest poem written last year and slightly edited, please forward widely inshAllah.
Ramadhan is coming
It’s only a few dayss away
I can’t wait
In anticipation
The coming of the new moon
And the best month of the year
I hope I’m alive
Although I’m young
There’s no guarantee
That I’ll be here next month
Been waiting
Anticipating
Hoping
And silently praying
For a chance
To experience
Another Ramadhan
Last year I tried
To improve and change
Leave the bad habits
The drinking, womanising
Drugs and clubbing
Managed it for 30 days
But on Eid I went to a rave
I gave in, wasn’t brave
Went with the flow
And got totally smashed
Its true after Ramadhan Satan is unleashed
Since then it’s been downhill
Month after month
