The Secret You Kept..

I so long to meet the one I thought to have met

do not think of me wrong I have no regret

Sleepless nights spent alone awake while you slept I just wish I had known the secret you kept

do not think I have hate, don’t think of me less

this is my fate, I know I am blessed

to be with you is great, yes I confess

I just wish I knew the secret you kept

only if you could see the tears in my eyes

but you were asleep to no ones surprise

away I creep while you find rest

I wish I had known the secret you kept

I have tried to wake you out of your slumber

not because I hate you, but because i wonder

what is it that you conceal in your chest

I just wish I knew the secret you kept

I reguse to sleep another night without you

Stand on your feet there’s no one to show you how to

You know the Sunnah as well as the rest

and that Oh Ummah… is the secret you kept
