The Show

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious Most Merciful

Salam and peace to all..

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go 

I can't do it alone I've tried

And I don't know why

I was in despair, when I lost my best-gadget-buddy. It was really an unexpected separation. I was in denial at first, thinking that I may have found it somewhere later, not really panic, but staying cool instead. How it lost? I have no idea. Either I dropped it off somewhere at Ballarat or someone pick-pocketed me. Allah knows best.

Slow it down

Make it stop--

Or else my heart is going to pop

'Cause it's too much

Yeah, it's a lot

To be something I'm not

That buddy had been served for me for more than a year. Nothing special about it, just have a lot of functions that useful to me. I use it for communication, for entertainment, for data record, as a diary, remind me about prayer times, reading novels, etc. All in all, I depend so much on it. Depend on it too much..

I'm a fool

Out of love

'Cause I just can't get enough

I don't regret of losing that buddy, I just missing it sometimes. Whenever I want to snap picture, look for qibla direction, look for prayer time, and mostly when before go to sleep and wake up in the morning. Those times make me realise, ah.. it's not here anymore..

I am just a little girl lost in the moment

I'm so scared but I don't show it

I can't figure it out

It's bringing me down I know

I've got to let it go

And just enjoy the show 

Everyone says to me there's always a reason for this. Ada hikmah la tu.. Yup, I accept it. That's how I comfort myself, not being too carried away. I know, I've been quite materialistic before, now I get the lesson. Nothing last forever.

The sun is hot

In the sky

Just like a giant spotlight

The people follow the signs

And synchronise in time

It's a joke

Nobody knows

They've got a ticket to that show

I was in despair, and later then I found this hadith:

"Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying: Allah is more pleased with the repentance of His servant when he turns penitently towards Him than one of you would be on finding the lost camel." [Muslim Book 27 No 6611]

Masha Allah, I realise then, when you please Allah, then Allah is pleased with you. Allah's blessings are countless, not just that buddy only, there are lots that I should be grateful with. 

Just enjoy the show

I want my money back

I want my money back

I want my money back

Just enjoy the show

I want my money back

I want my money back

I want my money back

Just enjoy the show
