A hero without the villain,
a rifle without the bullet
Spring without the bloom,
north and south pole without its magnet.

A winner without a loser
A loyalty that would banish without trust
You were my best friend my support
you were my pride my confidant.

Could Spring do without its bloom
The Yin without Yang, the dark without light
or have I cheated myself thinking we were 'inseparable'?
If I could let go so easily and watch you go to build your nest?

In the hustle and bustle of dunya
I rush along with the crowd.
Only, at days like this, to look back
as though I missed apart of me far behind.

But trying to go back for that part of me
is like trying to catch a past dream
You could sleep and sleep a thousand nights
but the dream you dream is never quite the same.

'Some birds were never meant to be caged
their feathers are too bright..'
I heard the saying go once upon a movie
it's true, my world is colder and emptier without u in it.

You are that bird <3 D <3
here I sit today thinking of you
there you sit inside a body
of a bright, beautiful green bird.



May Allah accept you as a Shaheed my amazing brother. Ameen.
