Goodbye, Adieu, Maa Al Salama
Goodbye, Adieu, Maa Al Salama,
I visited once and shall never visit again,
For I am born for only one day,
Carrying many events along with me,
I shall spread my wings and fly today at TWELVE P.M,
A tear shall drop from my eye as I have my last glance
To all the people that lived with me for TWENTY-FOUR HOURS
I will try to smile as I leave,
But I can not promise not to cry,
You shall not see me again, unless...
Time repeats itself and I come back,
The ones that took pictures or videos shall remember the moments
While those who wrote, felt, and cried shall feel the moments
Yet those moments shall last forever,
I love you all, every single one,
I enjoyed the time I've spent with you,
I'm sorry for the harsh times I've done for some,
Please forgive me, but that's how I was destined to be...
Remember me in the lovely moments
Treasure me in your minds
For if you do, I shall become a story told to many,
And a fairy tale that never ends
Goodbye, Adieu, Maa Al Salama,
For I have FORTY-NINE MINUTES left to spend with you
So enjoy what's left,
Remember that I've always loved,
And remember me as...
April in 2008...
Maa Al Salama: Means goodbye in Arabic.
