A Prayer Between Wounds

 



A Prayer Between Wounds

forgive me for thinking negatively,
not out of envy,
but from exhaustion
watching them move in circles
that never leave space for me

they alienate me
the phrase echoes
like a door closing softly,
yet loud enough
to leave a bruise

job opportunities appear,
but they are shared quietly,
passed only among themselves,
names repeating,
faces unchanged,
while I remain unseen

bismillah,
I place this disappointment
in God’s hands,
the One who knows
how to replace loss
with something better,
something fair,
something meant for me

and one of them—
acting strange,
pretending to know everything,
always interfering with what is mine,
crossing lines,
invading spaces
I tried so hard to protect

it truly hurts,
but I choose prayer
over revenge
may God return what is deserved,
not through my hands,
but through His justice
that never fails
