The Muslim Tribune is a quiet space for reflection, truth and spiritual connection

Hypocrite Inside

There’s a hypocrite inside of me

But I don’t want it to be me

I know it’s somewhere there

Lurking in the corners where

No human eyes can see

I want to suppress thee

But you want to accompany me

Trying to befriend me

There’s a hypocrite inside of me

If you win over me

That’ll be sheer ecstasy

For you and your infantry

There’s a hypocrite inside of me

Trying to make a fool of me

Never will succeed ye

I am clay

You are fire

Feeble and weak you think of me

Refuse to bow down in front of me

Strong you are, I thought

Because of my mentality

Didn’t think of the fact

That I can extinguish thee
