I Wait For The Day... Poem by Ayesha Jabbar

I Wait For The Day...



I wait for ​the time when the dream shall be over
and when reality unfurls its wings

When all falsehood shall perish
and the long awaited prophecy be fulfilled

When naught but truth and justice prevail
​and all rest shall fade away into nothingness​

and when the meek shall gnaw away the powerful hoax
and when the haughty might shall be in shackles trailed

When the illusion of might shall break
and set forth the worth of man, the lowly despicable being

When the souls shall unite with the lord, the magnificent the merciful
and when the heart shall be content

Day and night, I wait for that day
for my Lord's promise shall be fulfilled

That's a tall order, but the poet in the poem is resilient!
