"We belong to Allah, and to Him we return."

as new eleventh graders,
Under a new alma mater.
We started to chatter.
We learned each other deeper.
We explored life further.
Time passed.
Some were full of jolly,
others were gloomy.
That’s totally okay.
In 2012 school life came to an end.
You decided to move to the capital,
To stand on your own after all.
We were separated.
Never forgot the bond we’ve created.
In 2013 you returned.
Independent and more mature than ever.
You said you wanted to level up your study here.
We enjoyed our own presence.
Life was full of twists and turns.
Time flew.
In 2017 we graduated and grew.
You chose to fly back to the capital.
That made me lonely and emotional.
Though we’ve set apart,
You never gave up pushing me forward.
2019 was my turning point.
As I decided to relocate.
To the place where you stayed.
There, you welcomed me very warmly.
You taught me how to travel quickly.
You said it’d do good when we were busy.
Lots of ups and downs between our journey.
We embraced them and had fun in a few.
It’s 14 June 2023.
You left everyone with a smile
And a promise to be fine.
Only this time is for the better.
Our encounter is a big never.
Dear my best pal,
Please accept this farewell.
Nothing I would wish you well
but your joy wherever you dwell.
My heart is forever longing for you.
I’ll see you when I see you.❤️
