SPIRITUAL STRENGTH

                                                        SPIRITUAL STRENGTH                                                         

When you're alone with no fellow around
 Looking for a partner to soothe the sorrow 
You keep suffering from when you're let down 
You can walk in the dark and talk to a star
 It will let the reassurance inside you grow 
By communicating its companionship with a glimpse 
Telling that you are a piece in a puzzle named universe 
Tied together with a spiritual strength
 When you're lost and thirsty in the hot dry desert
 You feel the fresh breeze whispering with insistence 
That many plants and flowers may grow in a desert 
Worshiping to help a bird feed and heat a nestling 
Sacrificing their lives to disown materialist strength 
And make the world believe in the spiritual strength 
That the Almighty created the creatures to compromise
 To bring together disoriented pieces in the puzzled universe.
