And The Thousands

And The Thousands

And The Thousands
that I saw from my Window
busy with their own thoughts
busy

each had many of their own loved ones
separated from them
for the duration
for this journey

and here
the only things that matter
is one's umbilical cord
with the Lord

ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH
ALLAH

Tears flow when I see this bed

Tears flow when I see this bed

Tears flow when I see this bed
For it was here
That I was placed
to stay for the nights
at 304, Firdhaus Umrah
in Kota Mekah

The picture brings
back the smiles of Bang Shariman
Hj Roslan,
Nik, Kamaludin and Zubir
into the the air

The picture brings back
the laughter, the frowns
the silence
the ambience
And it is still everywhere.

Suddenly this picture
brings back everything.
