I Surrendered, Will You? Poem by Akhtar Jawad

I Surrendered, Will You?

Rating: 4.8


They can see Him,
But they don't see,
They can listen to Him,
But they don't listen to,
They can touch Him,
But they don't touch,
Cause they can think,
But they don't think.

They say He is on the skies,
I say He is everywhere,
They say we go to skies,
I say the skies come down.

They say life is a dream
They say life is a mirage,
They say life is mortal,
I say death is an illusion.

They say life was evolved,
They say life was planted,
They say life is an enigma,
I say you are partly right.

A beauty of truth I see in all,
Consciously or unconsciously,
We all witness an ancient power,
We all witness we are helpless before.

We can't fight Him,
We can't change Him,
We have no alternate,
I surrendered, will you?

God was invented when man felt helpless against elements of nature, when the fear had better of him, ...and yet when he had no alternative, very well said. Good reading.

There is no God except one, so we have no alternate.

There is no other alternative than surrender to Him as He is above everything! Our entire existence is His will... so an unconditional surrender is needed which alone can gurantee for us eternal peace! I like this poem of affirmation of faith in Him!
