LETGO

Today, my arm is stretched solely due to my will through his will. 

Fingers, extend

Releasing, the nothing that was held 

For, so long now, fearing what could of been...

Lost, and it was nothing

What, could of, should of, would of been, afraid of 

Is, the nothing

that would stop me from walking towards my inevitable if my  

inevitable death did not come towards me. 

Because, I am the one stretching my arms towards IT

Fingers, extend

I, fall back in my pool of blood

That, is paint, words and a world 

She, always wanted to live in 

Now, can release in

Breathe in 

And know that 

Arm, is stretched

Fingers, extend

There is nothing amended

Only choices to descend in 

ALI 'IMRAN AYA 154

Then after distress, He sent down serenity in the form of drowsiness overcoming some of you, while others were disturbed by evil thoughts about Allah—the thoughts of ˹pre-Islamic˺ ignorance. They ask, “Do we have a say in the matter?” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “All matters are destined by Allah.” They conceal in their hearts what they do not reveal to you. They say ˹to themselves˺, “If we had any say in the matter, none of us would have come to die here.” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Even if you were to remain in your homes, those among you who were destined to be killed would have met the same fate.” Through this, Allah tests what is within you and purifies what is in your hearts. And Allah knows best what is ˹hidden˺ in the heart.

AYA 156

O believers! Do not be like the unfaithful1 who say about their brothers who travel throughout the land or engage in battle, “If they had stayed with us, they would not have died or been killed.” Allah makes such thinking a cause of agony in their hearts. It is Allah who gives life and causes death. And Allah is All-Seeing of what you do.
