From Loneliness To Light a Journey To Light Poem by Mystic Qalandar

I walked in the shadows of solitude,
questioning every step,
my mind a river of memories,
weighing successes and failures alike.

The marks of the past
on my heart's walls
faded like termites gnawing away.
Dreams grew pale
beneath the crushing weight of desire.

Happiness seemed a distant star,
while pain felt close and real.
What I asked for but never received
made me wonder why.
I knocked, yet the door stayed closed,
the path ahead dim,
though a single ray of hope remained.

Each moment melted
in the flame of helplessness;
my heart froze
at another's joy.
Like a bird trapped in a cage,
freedom became a hidden prayer.

Then came a moment
when solitude held my hand
and guided me home
to myself.
Alone, yet within that loneliness
I glimpsed the light of God's presence.

Every loss, every joy
carried wisdom decreed by Him.
My heart found peace,
my soul found rest.

What I gained, what I lost—
all His will.
The burden of worldly worries
turned light.
In the fog of the future,
His light revealed the way.
The promise of His hope
awakened my heart.

When my pleas were denied,
I understood:
something far greater
was chosen for me.
I knocked, the door stayed closed,
for time rests only in His hands.
Patience and trust walk beside me,
and one day that door will open.

Now, with every breath,
the rhythm of His name echoes.
The vessel of my heart sails on His trust.
Every day, every moment,
feels like rain of mercy descending.
I am not imprisoned;
I am being tested.

The cage has melted away;
freedom rests in His embrace.
Struggle has become worship,
and every wave of pain carries peace.
My vessel sails
toward the light of the shore.

One day, I will find pure tranquility,
for He is the greatest Protector.
Every moment a prayer,
every moment gratitude—
that is the destination,
that is true peace.
In His divine will alone
lies eternal freedom.
