To be, or not to be?
Raheem Muhammad 1964 (Alabama)
To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Completion of the Deen, that is the lesson.
My purpose has been shown to me in a dream,
All decked out and neatly covered up it seems.
She’s created bright eyed, petite, delicately pure,
Dainty and adorable, all the above, and more.
See I haven’t seen her yet, however, I love her,
These feelings as I get closer, becomes stronger.
I asked her the question as I ask myself and I kneel,
A ring on her finger, too early, How Do You Feel?
To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Completion of the Deen, that is the lesson.
