Now!
Ask Him for forgiveness,
Sujood and drift away the loneliness,
Feel the greatness of His love,
For it may be your last sujood.
Now!
Read the revelation from God,
Qoran the finest piece for you,
For it may be your last reading.
Now!
Moist your paralyze tongue,
With dhikr and tasbeeh,
Istighfar and hear the beat of your heart,
Aching for Him,
For it may be your last dhikr.
Now!
Chased for good deeds,
Locked away your oblivion,
Because it may be your last attempt.
Now...
What are you doing now?

If you could see me now
You'd recognize me
In a heartbeat

You'd recognize this act
As a façade
A way of hiding the scar
That never truly healed

Despite the years
And all the changes
The events that
Changed our lives
For better or worse

All peel back
Bit by bit
Turning me into that
Naive innocent kid
Once more

All those defences
I've put up
All come crumbling down
Bit by bit
Piece by piece

In front of you
They amount to nothing
No ungodly force
Capable of stopping you

Stopping what you represent
That image forever ingrained
In my heart and mind

The culmination of love
Pain, joy, commitment
And all those emotions
That make the foundation
Of a relationship

One we never had
One we never will
Yet the standard I use
When it comes to others

You
Someone I never had
Have set the bar
For all that I shall have
In the future

So far not one
Has met that standard

Maybe it's just me
Or the standard you set
Is much too high

All I know
Is that it's lonely
Up here

Drinking alone
In this bar
So high off the ground

Won't you join me
One last time?
