I am happiest when I am closest to You
and it explains why any moment I have been away
I have always felt uneasy like sudden nausea or internal discomfort,
like being surrounded by people you know
yet feeling deeply lonely
& ever since my heart has leapt Your way,
seeking fulfilment in temporary things
is no longer necessary
/I only need You/

While Kalimah is an unapologetically Muslim space, we also accept submissions from women of other marginalised communities, as long as it adheres to our guidelines which can be found HERE.
