My faith in God –When I felt I was dying…

My faith in God –When I felt I was dying…

With every majestic sunset making way for the Immaculate moon; that
astoundingly depicted the multifarious shades of this Universe—which
was a gift from the Omnipotent Creator,

With every draught of exuberant wind; that evolved into a whole new
mist of rhapsodic excitement; out of sheer and insipid nothingness,

With every dainty petal of the poignant rose; that permeated a scent
of oneness in the otherwise monotonously subjugated atmosphere,

With every vivacious stroke of the mesmerizing rainbow; that charmed
the entire Universe; fraught with its own inexplicably unsolicited
misery,

With every infinitesimal speck of the atmosphere; that invincibly
clung to the bodies of us living beings; befriending an entire
Universe of solidarity-from its own realms of isolation and despair,

With every step that marched forward to maintain the royal equilibrium
of life; ensure that life went on despite anything and everything; but
only by the grace of God,

With every flight of unbridled fantasy; that made even the most
inconspicuously ordinary of living being; catapult beyond the
definitions of desire,

With every squeak that escaped the throat; triumphantly piercing the
bizarre sullenness and silence of the atmosphere with a desire to be
embraced by one and all,

With every sensuously tantalizing night; that unfurled into the
morning of a bountifully optimistic and brilliant dawn,

With every solemn pledge of goodwill in the graveyard; that bedazzled
the ghastly silence of remorseful death; with a new found longing to
disseminate love and life,

With every rumble of inscrutable thunder in the sky; that brought
alongwith it the optimistic promise of rain; an infallible reason to
cheer in the aisles of ecstasy,

With every inimitably righteous footprint left on soil; that carved an
entire pathway of unflinching goodness; love and peace; as the
quintessential elements to lead life with,

With every idea that uninhibitedly germinated from the brain;
blossoming into boundless sparks of freshness; to unite the entire
planet into the religion of love,

With every affable outgrowth that joyously leapt out of soil;
instantaneously engulfed with the blessed rays of the Sun; after an
equally compassionate cuddling by mother soil,

With every handshake executed between people of all race; religion and
color; paving way for the most immortal and unassailable religion of
humanity,

With every lump of frigidly asphyxiating snow; that perseveringly
labored its way to becoming the most adorable stream of love; as its
eventual outcome,

With every step traversing on the road not taken; permeating robotic
chunks of the atmosphere with tantalizing splashes of adventure,

With every anecdote of failure that strengthened one’s resolve to
succeed all the more; metamorphosing every bit of morbid ash into an
opportunity to holistically survive,

My faith in God grew; as irrespective of whatever has happened or
would happen from now on; I know it would be for the good—

As God is my faith; God is my life–  God gives me the power to
symbiotically survive with one and all till the time he commanded—-

And whenever he decides to take me away from this earth of his; I
sincerely pray from my heart and soul to him; to be able to utter his
name in poetry and song; when I felt I was dying….

Praying for forgiveness- To God and his holy messengers…

Praying for forgiveness- To God and his holy messengers…

My love for you; was my sole religion; transcending over every other
discrepancy of caste; creed; color; tribe and humbly endeavoring to
unite the entire planet with the best religion of them all; The
Religion of Humanity,

My obeisance towards you; was my sole enrichment to live; imbibe the
true fragrance of existence in perfect symbiosis with every speck of
your fathomlessly wonderful environment,

My salutations towards you; were my sole honor to survive amidst a
pack of wolves; be unwavering in my stride and mission of goodness;
even as the cannibals of greed converged upon me from all ends,

My prayers imploring you; were my sole directions in this truncated
lifetime; doing my destined job to my very best by your grace; and
then leaving everything else upon your Omnipotent stride to decide,

My speaking your name; was my sole blessedly enlightened moment of
life; making me oblivious to every diabolical dagger thrust towards
me; and rising with infallible truth- with the first rays of sunrise,

My remembering your divine light; was my sole lantern of happiness
amidst the bemoaning blackness that tightened its vice like grip;
empowering me to tower above every color; and yet emerge victorious
with the color of love,

My faith in you; was my sole pillar of strength; metamorphosing every
diminutively trembling bone of mine to march on the path of
righteousness; carving a history of love out of sheer and vapid
nothingness,

My perception of you; was the sole end of my imagination; as you owned
the entire Universe and beyond; and everything good in this life
commenced and blissfully ended with the boundaries you gave me to
live,

My embracing your living Mosque, Temple, Church, Monastery; was my
sole moment of fulfillment that absolved me of even the most
inadvertently committed of my sins; and evolved a brand new path of
vibrant life,

My asking your mercy; was the sole boon of my beleaguered twilight; as
I could now exuberantly mélange shoulder to shoulder with the world
outside; and only bow my head at your Omniscient feet,

My visualizing your sky; earth and the atmosphere that lay in between;
was the sole poetry that radiated from my countenance; as my humane
ability to cognize started and ended with whatever you limited me to
see,

My following your Omnipresent light; was the sole path that I tread on
in this devout survival; letting every uninhibited ounce of positive
energy in my heart; to escape into sacrosanct wisps of the atmosphere,

My intensity to become one with your light; was the sole essence of
everything humanitarian that I executed as the days unveiled;
earnestly attempting my very best to unite all living kind; into an
earth of love,

My belief in whatever you had destined was for the good; was the sole
principle on which I placed the roots of my life; which again was the
most wondrously mesmerizing gift to traverse upon earth; from your
heavens,

My poems for you; were the sole reason that I always felt as if in
compassionate paradise amongst the most usurping of humans; but your
Omnipotent aura of love ruling my conscience over one and all,

My yearning to be in perpetual bewilderment of your majestic Universe;
was my sole expression to flourish on planet divine; entwining my
palms in unflinching unity with my fellow mates in duress,

My worshipping you from the innermost realms of my heart; was the sole
ritual of holiness that I performed till I quit breath; loving you and
your invincibly unparalleled ways in the best manner that you taught
me to,

Therefore O! Lord Almighty and your holy messengers; I hereby pray to
you to forgive me for even the most inadvertently committed of my
misdeed;

And if you cannot pardon me; then give me death this very instant in
whatever form you may choose to; But please don’t be angry with me;
Please don’t stop loving me—for without your love;  I’d be as good
as ghastily dead; and yet with breath….
