The Purpose of my Life

بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمـَنِ الرَّحِيم
Bismilla-hir-Rahman-Nir-Rahim
(In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful)

From the depths of darkness
I paved my way out
I thought I found light
but later realized I was far from right

I wanted to swim, I wanted to fly,
I wanted to make my way through  the seven skies,
So I swam with the fish, I flew with the birds,
I crossed the seven oceans, not realizing what was in store.

I found a stone here, I found a coin there,
Things got better and later I found pearls everywhere….
