It was that day

When I found my way

To the valley of loss

I was determined to go

And I thought….



Allah



I am a stranger overhere

I am a stranger overthere

I am a stranger everywhere

And I wish to stay here

In the valley of loss

Please let me stay

This is where I belong

Nostalgia is my song



While talking to.Almighty Allah

I found lots of others

Sisters and brothers

Trying to find their way

Out of the valley of loss….



They were calling…..



Allah



What if we pray

What if we obey

Can we not stay

In this valley of loss



And there was no reply



I said…..

Nostalgia is a fate

No need for bargaining

No need for debate



But the pain is great

Replied all of them



We were born to be fun

Here is a desert

Everything is dim and yellow

No moon no sun

No single tree



I said yes….

But….

It is easy to be left alone

With memories and losses

It is peaceful overhere

It is safe ….It is lonely….

It is definitly sincere….



They replied….



You know nothing

You are only new

What you think of the valley

Is not true

It is hard it is lonely

It is full of pain

Try to pray

Try like us to obey

May be you can find the way



At this moment whispered

Alsheikh…..

from beyond the doors

Of the valley of loss



Children of the pain

Strangers of the desert

Leave the stranger alone

You know nothing better than him

Let him have time on his own

You all need time on your own

You need to find your healing alone



Children of agony and despair



He said



Learn how to love yourselves

Learn how to love each others

Learn how to discover the gifts Allah gave you

Learn how to stop mourning over your pasts

Learn how to open your hearts to forgiveness

Learn how to honour yourselves

Learn how to believe in almighty Allah

Teach your hearts to be tender

Teach yourselves how to surrender



To find your way out and away

of the valley of loss



Healing is a lot of effort

Replied all of them



No way back to eden

Replied alsheikh



You all know that

No way back to eden

Through the desert you have first to go

Your spirits should first grow

So open your hearts

And try to take the last chance

Try to believe in yourselves

In the mercy of Almighty Allah

Open your hearts to the angels of light

To the grace of insight

Sent to you from almighty Allah



And believe and believe

That Allah will always protect you

And will always love you



And believe and believe

That one day….

You will recognize your way

Out and away …..

from the valley of loss



Allah



Called the stranger

I am afraid

I am lost

I am extremely hurt

My heart is full of pain

Please …..

Let me stay

Till I find my way



Stranger of the desert

Whispered alsheikh



Do not ever worry

Open your heart to Allah

Believe…. my poor child….

Cause when you believe

The fear and the pain will fly away

And you my poor child will find the way…..
