WHAT MATTERS By Ummu Ubaidah (Penword)

You want something to be yours, and yet you make no effort to own it

You don’t like what you have and yet you are holding unto it

By ourselves we walk into a twisted and confusing situation

Then we run around looking for the easiest solution

Yes, matters of the heart sometimes are very complicated

But for you it can be simple, if it is rightly communicated

Indeed the secret of happiness is contentment and gratitude

If you want to be loved, then let go of your attitude

There are some loose ends that would forever remain undone

So don’t bother fretting over the past because it’s gone

What matters is your today and tomorrow if it ever comes.
