Rashida Dp Poem
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 the way I love you?
I whisper that question
between my du’as,
begging that our love
never fades,
no matter how time moves.
I thank God each day
for the children He gave us,
living proof of our love.
Their laughter is the echo
of everything we’ve built together.
But you’re only a man,
and I’m just a woman.
One day,
my beauty will fade and slip away..
will your love remain
when time has its way with me?
God gave you permission
to marry more than one,
but is your love for me
strong enough
to hold back from what’s allowed
because it would shatter me?
I know we can’t see the future,
but this thought..
it stays with me.
Not out of doubt,
but because I love you
so deeply,
even my overthinking aches.

Rashida Dp Poem
I love you.
More than anything I’ve ever known,
More than I can hold inside these quiet bones.
Each second of the day,
You live in my mind like breath
But sometimes I forget…
You’re not me.
You’re your own being,
And I want all of you,
Everything you are,
Even the parts that don’t belong to me.
You say you admire beauty
You notice, you look
But my eyes stopped working
For anyone but you.
We’ve been married a long time.
Yet still,
Ten years in,
Your footsteps at the door
Make my heart race like I’m sixteen again.
I see beauty in everything you do.
It terrifies me.
Because what if I love you more than you love me?
What if one day,
You see someone else’s glow
And mine feels… dim?
You’ve shown me love
So much love.
But fear is louder than logic
When love runs this deep.
How do I unlove you,
Even for a second
Just enough to breathe?
I feel like I’ve fallen into a well,
And instead of climbing out,
I just keep sinking.
And every time I look at you,
I drown a little more.
Tell me…
What do I do
With a love this heavy,
This pure,
This haunting?
