I Wish I Could


اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَا تُهُ

If I had it in me to make a fairth of the view I saw last night and two nights before, I would have done so. A camera cannot capture that image well enough. Like the many times I tried to share what I see, this time too I have failed. We need better ways to see, better ways to communicate.

I'll find it, insyaAllah~ :)

If the world is...


اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَا تُهُ

If the world is a book, why can't we read it?
If the world is food, how come it tastes bad?
If the world is there, why are we here?

If the world is an ocean, let's swim.
If the world is a huge forest, let's get lost in its wonders.
If the world is a blanket, I'd like to curl inside.
If the world is a house, I'd make it my home.
If the world is asleep, I'd rather stay awake.

If the world is ideal, we wouldn't be here.
If the world is the world, where would we go next?

If the world is right, how come so many are wronged?
If the world is at peace, how come there's war?
If the world is better, why do we feel worse?

If the world is a flame, I'd dive straight in.
If the world is darkness, I'd go in without a torch.
If the world is broken, let's try to fix it.
If the world is within, let's dig deep.
If the world is without, let's not keep.
