Where is my peace?
Let’s find the purpose of our existence
I went with the flow of the rivers
walked on oceans
tiptoed the way up the springs
falling back on glossy rainbow pebbles
and travelled far and for O so long
I look up the baby pink crystal skies
and ponder
where is my peace lost?
I am on the quest to search for it
come join me
I search high and low
I topsy turvy my reality
I tried to stop the cascading waterfalls
from springing up my tear ducts
where is my peace?
I ask the skies
answer me?
I bequeath it to the sun and the moon
no answer yet
where is my peace?
I ask the five elements of nature to help me
Earth, water, fire, air, and space
still no answer
maybe I should ask Captain Planet
after all, he is a hero
I call to your five elements
earth, fire, wind, water, and heart
still no answer
in extreme trepidation I question my purpose of existence
answer me
maybe I should ask my mind
Wait!
let me not think and seek the help of science instead
but wasn’t Darwin’s theory of evolution disproved?
So, who are we?
if not evolved from apes, definitely not fungi
maybe it all started with a Big Bang
but who caused the universe to explode
who controls the big bang
who controls the black hole
if I’m all powerful
why can’t I travel with the speed of light
and escape it
why am I trapped in this body?
Wait! who holds the stars and moon in its place
who makes the planets revolve
why are we still alive after every thing we do to each other
and after how we serve the earth
who is protecting us?
maybe it's my guardian angel
Wait! Who created my guardian angel
I came from my mother’s womb
Wait! who nurtured me and protected me
and made me grow from a zygote to an embryo
didn’t I resemble a leech
and looked so tiny
and then I grew limbs
I played and moved and kicked my mom, still in the womb
but still she loved me
I love her too
Wait! who is protecting and nurturing my mother
what is this strange mother and child bond
You love your child like no one else, why
who put this love in your heart
Wait!
No answers
Scientology failed you
Astrology failed you
Atheism failed you
Spirituality failed you
all religions failed you
where is your peace lurking?
maybe music is the answer
I listen to Bohemian Rhapsody of the Queen
what do I find
Bismillah Bismillah Bismillah
means ‘In the name of Allah — we invite and welcome the blessings and help of Allah’
I prostate and in that moment
I truly find my peace, I find my bliss
Where is my peace you ask
with Allah-’AR Rahman, AR Rahim’-the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
my answers, my peace, my purpose, my truth
Found!
I’m no longer lost
in Sujud-prostration did I find my purpose, my existence
my soul calmed down, washing off black tar with clear fresh spring waters
my purpose-to serve humanity with kindness
my peace- in understanding my purpose
