One year

One year since I saw your beautiful face
One year since I saw you smile
One year since you called me back
Doesn't seem like it's been a while

It's been a year and I see your kids
Put on masks of bravery and walk on
Break apart in frozen fragments of time
Then pick up their pieces and go on

It's been a year and I see your parents
Moving further and further apart
Broken to the point of no repair
Still holding on to their heart

Missing you more than words can say
It's been a year and it seems like yesterday

27th August haunts me like no other day.
RIP Anu. I can still not believe you are gone. I doubt I ever will.

You make me feel like I'm perfect

I'm not

But sometimes I live in that illusion

Because life around me is perfect

MashaaAllah

I have you and you are perfect

I feel like everything about you is tailored for me

No one else could be all that you are

I never realized I could love someone so much

I didn't know I had it in me

I sometimes look at you and wonder

When you are fast asleep and in another world

How you came to be mine

How everything just fell into place so quickly

It's been a beautiful journey

I feel like I've known you forever

You mean the world to me

It's like you are every prayer answered all at once

Love you
