Submission to My Lord
by Aziza Hussain
My hands
meet my knees
as I bow
in deep
submission
submission
to my Lord
My head
meets the floor
as I
prostrate
in deep
submission
submission
to my Lord
My head is slightly
lowered
as my hands
meet each other
in deep
submission
submission to my Lord
Tears flow down
my face
while I pray to the One
the One up above
In deep
submission
I cry
