A Tribute

Dear Allah,
The almighty and the greatest of all
I feel so lost and I can’t stop these tears
Now that he has returned to your eternal home
Save and beautifully rest at the end of his life
I’ve never known such a kind person as him
Giving laughter in every meeting in our lives
Loving us since we were young until now we grow up
With humble love that never changed, never decayed
Yet sometimes we’re too ignorance to understand
It’s so slight of us to return his love in his elder age
We’re too self-centered with our own future
Now it’s only regret and memories that stay in our hearts
But I’m so grateful for being in his life
With his blood running in my vein & feelings we all shared  
Inherited us with strong mind, humble heart and humor
I hope these qualities thoughts I can carry on in my life
In his silence, only some of us know his past life
I know he was a soldier but never thought he fought so much
So much for his country, his love and his family
He who only has one true love
Declared their love in their young age yet their love never fade
What I used to see, they never apart, everywhere always together
Like a fairytale of a love story but it’s real and I’m too amaze to see
A devoted soldier and a mother of all souls
A true love I wished I can have one too  
For some time, his true love has waited him in heaven
And now he has returned to his one and only love
Together again like they used to be
Allah,
Please give forgiveness for all their mistakes in their lives
Give warm and cozy place beside You
In this earth, nobody can handle the sadness from losing
But this is life and this is faith
So with this praying bead in my hand
My prayers are for them and only to them
