spread my wings

i've met so many great people

those with in-depth knowledge

so humble and sincere

and they're willing to share

what they know

but i

i was reluctant

i was confused

...and i was only to listen...

but not to give

we only appreciate when they're out of sight

we only miss when they've left

we only regret when we know

i took it for granted

and now i do regret it

i have another sets of months

to gain and begin to give

to unleash my true potential

before that time comes

choices left

when people asked me

"are you okay?"

should i just said i'm fine

and lying to myself?

or

tell them the truth

and get carried away again?

the day after

Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah

All praises to Allah the Creator of all mankind

thanks to all who joined the Janazah Ghaib Prayer

although it was quite a last minute announcement

quite a number sincerely waited and joined me.

May Allah bless all of us insya'allah

this is our first time ever

to be the leader of the prayer

I nearly cried

but I already did

during the presentation

who wouldn't?

when someone you care

just passed away

yet you've to present a poem

entitled grandmother

quite ironic

today

is my mother's birthday

may Allah grant her strength

may she use her time left

in Madinah

pretty wisely.
