My Friend

I am bound in eternal friendship, With The Supreme, The Most High, Preachers taught me to call Him My Lord, but I call Him my Friend. I call Him my friend because He is The quickest to reach and the quickest To always respond to my cry for help, And that's why He is truly my Friend. I am what I am, because He is in me, Deep within; I take my every breath With His Blessings, which He ushered On me, before I was even born. Since then He is my unseen Friend. People love me just because my Friend Lives within me. When He would leave me, So would everybody, burying me in a grave, Where my mortal remains would lie without My Friend. I know my Friend will never leave me. He would just take my soul with Him, As He departs. My body will lie in wait, Until The Resurrection, to meet again, My Friend. Yes, it will be the Day of Judgement too, I'll be asked about my words and deeds, Tough will be to answer those, yet I have No worries. As I always sought refuge in My Friend. Sure He knows of the frailties of my mind, He was in me when I erred so many times Satanic whispers got the better of me, Whenever, by intent or not, I parted from My Friend. He is no doubt the Beneficent, the Merciful, A faith that I nurtured and always relied on. Irrevocable is His promise of Divine Pardon, My sins cannot transcend the endless limits Of my Friend's Forgiveness. So, oh my mortal friends! Scare me not with The dreadful thought of burning in the Hellfire! Speak not of Divine Punishment, But of Divine Compassion, Love, Mercy, Pardon and Protection Of my Friend.
