Allhamdullilah,
I know that I can say that,
I will never go back,
Down that dark dark path,
Where all I could see was black.

Allhamdullilah,
I have changed,
I have improved,
I still need to change.
I still need to improve.

Ya Rabb knew that once he guided me back,
I would never turn away again,
He wanted to out balance my bad deeds that were weighing like a sack,
So Ya Rabb showered me with lessons, trials, hardships and blessings that engulfed me like rain. Allhamdullilah.

I'm scared.
I fear the days when my Imaan is low,
I fear shatans whisper,
I'm still grateful though,
And I know when I make Dua Allah (SWT) can hear.

I will keep trying,
I will keep making mistakes,
But I know Allah (SWT) will continue guiding and forgiving,
After all, He is the one who gives not Take.
