Words are useless now
Let’s whisper in quiet silence
The language of Love
Month: July 2014
All I Know
What a brilliant mind
I loved to debate
Reason impeccable
Nothing escaped
People would come
Seeking an answer
I would oblige
Heart filled with pride
Yet I struggled
With pain unbearable
Thoughts inescapable
I begged for help
Brought before the One
I was told to surrender
So that I may be shown
The light of my being
My mind said:
How could you have what you don’t already know?
Love answered:
Be silent so you may experience the Truth
In my quiet
I was moved deep within
A world full of treasures
Love, Peace and Truth
Everyday I’m shown some more
When reason objects
I laugh
My heart knows what’s true
And since that day
All has changed
Now, when they ask
I answer:
Surrender is all I know
Love is Blind
Love is truly blind
It sees no difference
Between family and stranger
Nor friend or foe
It says: I am the Sun
A mercy to the world
Shining my light on all
Saint and sinner alike
Become, my friend
A heart of love
Filled with compassion
That brims and overflows
So those of hatred
May drown in love
And be converted
To its beauty
And born anew

Singing Heart
Im in love with holy silence
And its heavenly melody
Consumed within the quiet
The music of Life stirs within
In the waters of soundless sound
All evil is cleansed from me
A Love song birthed creation
And in song we can all return
This is the strength of prayer
The power of the Heart
One that sings in remembrance
Is awake and aware
With a Heart that is peaceful
For it is a Heart that is Home
…..
I would like to thank YOU ALL for your kind words of comfort, prayers, and help when over a year’s worth of my work was gone!! I really really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart 🙂
MY NEW BOOK!!!
Hello my dear friends,
Im happy and grateful to announce the publication of my new book ‘Finally Back Home’. It is available on Amazon in both paperback and ebook form at the following link:
A percentage of the proceeds will go to charity so you will be helping a fellow indie writer and the world at the same time 🙂
Also, part of the reason I write is to try and bring comfort to people and inspire them to reach their higher selves. If you feel anyone would benefit from my book I shamelessly ask for a reblog. It would be greatly appreciated!
I would like to thank all of you. It is your constant presence and encouragement here that led to the publication of ‘Finally Back Home.’ In particular, I would like to thank Laura at http://arkofidentity.wordpress.com/ without whom this book would have never come into fruition
As always, Sending my love and prayers to you all!!
Irfaan ‘Ihsan’ Jaffer

You’re my priceless jewel

Guiding Star
What is this world?
A whisper in an open meadow
Alive for a moment
Disappearing into air
What are you?
A ray that emanates
From an eternal Light
Born of a fire
That needs no oil or wood
Listen my child
All thats happened
Is but a gentle reminder
That you were made to
Surrender in patient faith
Tilt your face
To the place of prayer
And give yourself up
In both
Humility and trust
Do this.
Unveil the guiding star
On this journey you walk
So when the darkness comes
You’ll see the light
And know the way
I Admire YOU
You think you’re weak and frail
That there’s something wrong
Because your life’s upside down
Drowning in pain and fear
But please tell me dear
Who has more courage
Than one who fights to live
Despite life’s violent storms?
You are far from fragile
Look with your hindsight now
Pain has turned you into
The person I most admire
Remember, struggle is a sculptor
Its hands create character
You’ve become more patient, kind and wise
And a quiet strength lies within your eyes
The foundation of a broken home
Must be uprooted from the ground
You’re life is only being torn apart
To make room for a better you

A Journey
The second I saw your blessed face
I understood the meaning of Life
And from that day
No army could stop me
From finding you
I made a sacred vow to leave my life
And search beyond all place and time
Until that precious moment
I could call you mine
I journeyed a thousand new moons
Under flames of the burning sun
Until one morn – knowledge dawned
And I knew the face I saw
Wasn’t born of this world
In my sadness I screamed up high
Where art thou, my splendid Love?
And from within a voice replied
Right here my dearest one
Never have I left your side
I let you roam so you may see
This face of mine is everywhere
…..
The Sun Rises
Do not sleep my friend
The sun rises each morning
Inside of your soul
Stay awake my dear
Witness the splendid beauty
Of this miracle
…..
