    Lightbulb Kill Yourself

    Kill yourself

    Where am I from, where am I going, why am I here?
    I need an answer. Would anyone give me a listening ear?
    Is this life an illusion, or is it real?
    Who am I a dead corpse or a living life that can see and feel?
    Why do this world’s pleasures to me appeal?
    But then they hurt me, a wound so grave they never seem to heal
    What is everything all about?
    Is it of belief or is it of doubt?
    Someone answer me I want to scream and shout
    No, I will get my pistol, and with a shot, I am out.

    Don’t my dear friend
    There is something I know, that you do not comprehend
    Don’t simply put your life to an end
    Know the truth and illusions with it don’t blend
    Please tell me, or to death myself I have condemned
    Save my life, for it anything I will spend

    Kill yourself, but don’t commit suicide
    Keep alive the lit spirit inside
    Wake your heart up and its eyes keep open wide
    Lead your soul to its innate guide
    Trace day and night, do they ever coincide?
    How morning has sight and how night managed to hide

    Look upon the sun, the moon, the stars and skies
    The hills, the palms, the rivers and the land that lies
    The bird that within the sky with two wings flies
    With one glance realize how everything unifies
    But nothing remains living, everything dies
    While during its life, the Life-giver it glorifies
    Endure your pain when He you tries
    And trust in Him, the Omniscient, the Wise
    For all the matter is mercy in disguise

    For everyone He gave about Him clues
    And allowed us to reject or Him choose
    His universe he made for us to use
    Not to forget Him and with brains He granted us refuse
    Learn about Him during the world’s short cruise
    Wonder inside you and around you, all this is whose?



    Wherever you look, there you will He find
    Use your heart’s eye and don’t be blind
    Know Him to love Him and not to suspect Him with your mind
    With choice he honoured you and called you man-kind
    If you don’t find him in everything, know you are a way behind

    During night look at the light of the moon
    And try to stare at the burning sun at noon
    Don’t think a lot, there is no time, the appointment is so soon
    Yes, with Him the First and Last, the One and Only
    Alone, Everlasting but never lonely

    With love fly to him with the wings of hope and fear
    Search within your veins, for He is that near
    Here he is, His presence is crystal clear
    Through his creations, he certainly did appear
    What is that I see? Is it a tear?
    Out of recognition, has He become so dear?

    Yes with Him our relationship is very true
    From dark to light, you are coming through
    Yes, it is Him, if not then who??
    He is that common sense that within you grew
    Who with colours painted the grass green and the sky blue

    To Him belonged this wonderful landscape
    Ask not about His age, entity or shape
    Simply submit to Him and to Him escape
    For ever since, everything was recorded on video-like tape
    Always Awake for He could never sleep
    His eyes are upon us to safe us keep

    He created everything since the pen of fate
    That wrote everything since then to this very date
    According to his destiny nothing came earlier, nothing late
    And postponed judgement till the day of weight
    Sense Him, so Solemn, so Merciful, so Great

    Surrender to Him with all his Might
    Yearn for his meeting and being at his sight
    Make Him your company during night
    And be at his mentioning through daylight
    To Him keep close and tight
    And be certain that you have now reached what is right
    When your heart with Him becomes bright
    And its colour turns from burned black to wiped white


    When I feel dead then become alive
    When I breathe oxygen after an exhausting dive
    When I reach home after a long drive
    When I kill myself, while to Him I strive
    Here he is, At Him I finally did arrive

    WOW...I think that is all I can say. The power, the meaning, the form, the thought...all of it is wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

    No matter what lies beyond the horizon, you can always find a guiding light.

    It is the power of Truth

    Shadow Fire

    Thank you so much for being the first one to comment

    and thank you very much for your comment, but believe me I really believe it is the Power of Truth. THis is what our religion Islam, tells us about Allah whom we believe in and believe me, this is nothing compared to the grandeur of the Quran written in heavenly Divinity in Arabic

    Thanks again

    As I read it became evident that you've a creativity that really makes one become attentive to your every word. I can't say there was anything I disliked here. Great stuff!
    "A poet is an unhappy being whose heart is torn by secret sufferings, but whose lips are so strangely formed that when the sighs and the cries escape them, they sound like beautiful music... and then people crowd about the poet and say to him: "Sing for us soon again;" that is as much as to say, "May new sufferings torment your soul." ~Soren Kierkegaard

    at first i thought this was going to be another depressing kill me poem, but you brightened up. i really believe its sentiment, about dying to self in order to live for god. this part sounds like it can be taken two ways: "Wherever you look, there you will He find". but i knew what you meant. i'm not islam, but i understand what you're saying, and i like it.

    Thank you Mercy for your lovely comment
    If you know Moez Masoud, I guess you do. He was discussing the subject and I like this contemplation very much so I did not sleep until I wrote it

    I don't know what to say truly, and believe me, I know its good not because I wrote it, but because Who it is written about is very very very good

    yes, I know the title is quite shocking but that's what is important about it I think.

    I am glad you understood what I meant although you are not a muslim.
