My Tug Of War. Poem by mariam khan Farah Abdulahi

You take my heart and pull it's strings.
For the sake of Allah I go to you.
I give my all.
We talk Islam.
You need me I am mom.
You are the greatest gift from Allah.
You need me and I come.
For the sake of Allah I run to you.
While one of you runs the other calls.
Me, myself and I.
Me for me.
Myself for you and I go the other way.
I divide myself in three.
I do my prayers and make dua.
Every chance to slip.
People make it hard for us.
As you take my heart and pull it's strings.
I start to slip and feel the pain.
Allah pulls the strings and takes my heart to give me hope and keep me strong.
