Ammi (May Allah 'swt' give you Peace & Jannah)

standing still in the middle of my kitchen
gazing at the spot that was so used
the same place where you used to sit
and gaze back at me

here I stand, watching and waiting
I know the signals you are sending me
to say loudly what I feel
is when the words are wasted

I walk by your room every day
reminiscing the times we used to lie together
the murmurs in the night
the sadness in your life

your eyes closed, the pain gone
I am not suffering
that you have given me what was yours
for this is what I prayed for

mount of granite, an ever moving stream
the smile that is so clear to me
from a person so great
she was none other than my Ammi

  1. Your poem is beautiful. It's evident it's written straight from your heart. May Allah (SWT) grant her peace and a place in Janat-ul-Firdoz, Ameen.
