They didn’t take me to the funeral.
They told me I was too young.
But I - I remained strong.
It was you who kept me going on.
That day I cried.
The day you died.
I didn’t get to say goodbye.
Instead I sat and cried.
All my memories of you, not one of them bad.
But as I recollect them I am sad.
Sad that I won't ever get to talk to you .
Sad that I won't get to say how much love I had for you.
I have grown so much since you passed away.
I think about you every minute, every day.
In my heart, my feelings are still true.
In my mind, I will always remember you.
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)
Greetings and peace be with you aamirsaab;it is nice to see your poem again after such a long time. Here is another of unknown origin.
Miss Me -- But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little--but not too long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me--but let me go.
For this is a journey that we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the Master's plan,
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss Me--But Let me Go!
