Tears of repentance..
For every tear drop that I've shed,
For every ayah that I've read,
For every battle that I've fought,
For every lesson that You've taught,
I know there is some benefit for me,
And always with me I'll find You to be,
Guiding through life's difficulty,
Showing me what is right and what is faulty.
Yet, tears are made from pain,
They may rise from everything vain,
Because we trespass forbidden lane,
Forgetting what is it that is main.
I've shed tears of blood and tears of gold,
As I've been pretending on the outside to be bold,
But on the inside I'm all shriveled and cold,
Ya Rabb use this pain to have me mould,
In becoming the person that You love and Hold.
