A poem dedicated to my lil’ bro… (you know who you are)

Sometimes we need to let go.

You said you sat and looked at life from a different angle.
You didn’t know the ways, ‘coz you never explored.

Sleepless nights, the sole reason
For thoughts so unstoppable
Thoughts. Sometimes that’s all we need.

So young, but you’ve lived so fully.
Experienced more than I, more than many.
Life threw its fruits at you, and thus you chose
But life is merely a course running its own course.

Decisions. It’s not a time to fail
Act wisely, choose the wiser.
Be a king, don’t be afraid to say no
Be bold, don’t be afraid to say so.
Be you, don’t be afraid at all.

Sometimes we just need to let go.

Changes are opportunities, will you take it?
Your mind envisions and your eyes sparkle
You know it’s time.
And I know it’s hard ’cause you said it so.
But I promise you, you’ll never regret.

Tests. Will you stand or will you fall?
Choices. What will it be?
It’s 2-0, but it’s not a game.
Life. Moments for the Day of Judgment.

Your ears are yours, so lend it wisely
Your eyes guide you, so watch your step
Your heart belongs to Allah, so ask Him for Help.

Make the change, and you shall be free
Go it alone if need be.

Sometimes bro, you need to let go in order to hold on.

Your sis.
May Allah protect you always.
