Poems by Syafiqah Rostuah

Lake

Lake

It was almost sunset

I sat by the lake with deep thinking

Thinking about what the world wants from me

Why me? Why me ?

Why do I have to sit and watch all this bullshit

Without having an inch of act

Then I remember one thing,

Allah wont test you unless you can get through it

So I wrote down my fears

One by one

And I realised that I have a lot of them

I got to start from the bottom

I need to cleanse my mind

I must remove toxic people from my life

I used to think He can change my fate

But then I was wrong

Im the only one who can change my fate

I will trust myself and move on

Even how many years its going to take

I will ignore what people said about being single

Because I know,

I am better alone
