"Then which of your Lord’s favors will you both deny?"
55:13


Back in the same place
Seems like I can't stay
Back in the never ending (space)
It all looks grey...

Running round, In (circles)
Running from my fears
I like purple
And you like the color of my tears

No one really likes it,
No matter what they say
Cuz this feeling, of sh!t
Just can't seem to go away

I wanna leave this phase
Go a different place
My heart's burned from the blaze
FROM WHEN YOU LEFT ME IN SPACE

OH, I'M GOING ROUND AND ROUND
IN CIRCLES, NEVER FOUND
I'M JUST HERE NIGHT AND DAY
NOT LIKE I HAVE A REASON TO STAY (stay)

Circles, in my mind, in my brain
Give me one good reason I should stay
You never liked me anyway
All of me, all in vain

Fishing happiness out of the
sad, sad, sad gray ways of my days
I'm talking like I'm already a thousand years old
I've seen enough of this world
I just want to go

Oh, It tastes so good
The taste of freedom
Oh how I could-

You took it from me again
I saw my empire fall.
Running around...

OH, I'M GOING ROUND AND ROUND
IN CIRCLES, NEVER FOUND
I'M JUST HERE NIGHT AND DAY
NOT LIKE I HAVE A REASON TO STAY
IN THIS PLACE
ON THIS WORLD
(alive...)

Hi, I'm 'Z' but I go by Iqra (It's my pen name). I wrote this poem way back and have posted it on my unofficial Instagram but thought of getting it published. This is my first officially published work. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to read it.
