Mercy
by Sabeen Ansari
In my heart -
I hold dear;
my family,
friends, and humanity.
I find it hard to believe
that people can hurt each other,
knowingly.
My heart aches with the thought
of emotional, physical, and psychological pain
that so many have gone through.
I raise my hands in a prayer
and ask The Almighty to spread
His Mercy on all,
and I pray that He may deliver us
from all the hardships that we may encounter.
He is the One
and Only that knows
what is best for us,
and Insha’Allah through His Grace
shall we ever be thankful to Him.

"Poetry has become a means, for me, to take all the thoughts
and ideas from my mind and place them into a medium that expresses
them in the best way. I usually write for myself and find
it to be a release that allows me to think clearly."
