Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Each in their box, we lay The same inseparable us Still many of miles away Voiceless and out of sight Out of memories too From darkness into the light Our messages passing through One day we shall return In full ignorance who we are Life’s ethereal, it cannot be learned It’s the light of the extinct star Though we are...

Bader means full moon in Arabic, but to me, your name carries more than light it holds the weight of my world. My life revolves around you, and I don’t remember what joy felt like before you. I pray to God each night, quietly, endlessly, that He grants you success in this dunya because my love for you means your happiness is mine. Do you love me...

I no longer want answers. I no longer want signs. only to walk to the end of this thought where maybe, someone, will light a candle. and if no one is there, I will sit there with all my thoughts and hold them in my arms, as a mother holds the child she can no longer save. because in the end the shadow of the One who thinks is not...
