A prayer with cold tears.
The secret’s out
Your diary’s opened wide
Will you be safe
Or drowned by the media tide?
I worry for you
And my heart it aches
Yet I know to be strong
That your faith won’t break.
I knew it vague
Enough to set me apart
As news draws closer
Wishing it would never start.
Inevitably facing
With hopes so high, so nigh
To Allah our Lord
We share a prayer, a sigh.
It gives me a shiver
As my tears grow cold
I might’ve been with you
Had I been told.
May Allah protect our imprisoned brothers and sisters everywhere and keep them steadfast. May He hasten their release and grant patience and tranquility to them and their families.
