The One Who Listens

 

Its funny how people expect you to talk

when they dont even have the intention to listen

Its even funnier when they claimed that they understand

when they dont but actually only managed to come up with their own assumptions

judgements and conclusions 

to make your words connect to each other

making it easier for them to digest

you tell em stories

your story your problems

you let it out you let it go

some's a good listener but some not even close to being one

but yet they sit beside you and listen

you tell them your story your problems

some might understand but some might not 

but they pretend that they understand

indeed having someone to share your problems with

is like drinking plain water when you are so damn thirsty

its like carrying a 100kg of weight on your back

and half of it were lifted away

its like you're drowning in the middle of the ocean

and you then saw a fisherman's boat approaching

whether that particular individual understands your story

or not

it doesnt matter really

but its gonna feel like

drinking plain water when you are so damn thirsty

but the water turns out to be polluted and is full of transparent sand particles

like carrying a 100kg of weight on your back

and another 100 kilos were dumped on you

like drowning in the middle of the ocean

and you saw the cumulonimbus clouds rolling in

when that person

that particular individual

listens

''understands''

and they started to judge you

blames you and listed out all of your mistakes

saying out loud the ugly truth

that you wish they wouldnt say but rather keep it to themselves

and you end up

hating your self even more

i gave up

on what

on human

 because i found a better way

to tell your stories and your problems

without being judged

although it is true that its your fault at the first place

its the wrong decision youve made 

that get you in such troubles

but yeah

finally you can let it out

admit your mistakes

accept your flaws

and be determined to fix everything

improve yourself

make things better again

and thats my friend

you can get by telling all of your problems to Allah

indeed He listens

even when you aint saying things out loud

and He understands

more than you understand yourself

He knows you make mistakes

and yet He forgives you

when you beg for His Mercy

He can help you find a way out

if you pray for His help

He can help you calm down

and regain your strength

Thank You Allah

for being there for me

Make me among those whose heart always in a constant remembrance of You

Make me among those you are pleased with

And make us among those

who loves You

more than anything else
