How Can I Leave Poem by Mohammad Younus

How can I leave
when the world still spins?
When the light of your presence
sinks deep within and without?
My soul and heart resonate
with the sound of your voice.
I am graced to hear your melodies,
no mundane choice to drown them out.

You walk beside me as I am your name.
The world speaks with one voice:
You are nameless—
but I dare to tell shamelessly:
In truth, my name is only yours,
Not written in sand, that could be erased
by rain, storm, or winds of dust.

I feel the trembling weight,
the crack within my chest,
the deafening sound.
At least I deserved your welcome song,
A moment of truth, a golden chance
to reveal truths hidden, untold,
To face the light of The Truth,
not run and hide.

My love, divine grace, I embrace.
I give you my heart, my soul, my fire.
The wisdom unravels like threads of gold,
Each one whispering your name aloud.
The echoes expand, the shadows fade.
I hold tight when the winds grow fierce,
Your words of wisdom heal my wounds
when illusions pierce me.

You hold my hand with careful grasp,
As love moves like heaven's breeze.
Your melody lingers—a cosmic voice,
Haunting my nights, stealing my dreams.
I deserve your word—a promise in Eternity,
A gesture proving that I am dear,
as I was on the day of Alast.

But in illusion's spell,
I turned my back and stood frozen,
Left in the ruins of love unspoken.
I search for meaning
in the lines of your manifestation,
In the fractured light of memories—
I cannot erase.

By your grace, I've awakened,
enlightened in my being,
no longer separate from The Truth.
