Life by the beach

Kembali Oh Kembali,
Kembalilah Kedalam Diri,
Sendirian Sendiri,
Sendiri Bertemankan Sepi,
Hanya Kain Putih Yang Membaluti Tubuhku,
Terbujur Dan Kaku,
Jasad Terbujur Didalam Keranda Kayu,

Menanti Di Barzakh

"Ramadhan this year is approaching the end. My long wait since 1st Ramadhan will be over soon. Families came and go. Man, woman and teenagers passed by me but none cared to stop and say Salam. It was not their fault because I was a stranger to them. Sadness and loneliness are my best friends. Crickets' chirp, singing and fighting of insects, finally drowned by the sound of rain drops on tree leaves. I never gave up hope, deep down I know that they love me. Will always remember me.

Friday finally came with bright hopeful rays. From afar, a younger version of myself paced steadily followed by his two sons and three daughters (one of them walking with a limp), now in their twenties and thirties. One of them holding a bottle of water and another a plastic of scented Pandan and flowers. They stopped right in front of me and said their Salam. I cried and thanked Allah for the gift of a son with grandchildren that still cared. They came to pray for me and brought me gifts while I wait in Barzakh"...

Before going to the grave this morning, I was cleaning out our store. Displacing and reorganizing things. In my excitement, I accidentally walked (probably ran) into a large speaker (you can only imagine the things they dumped in a storeroom) and hurt the fourth finger on my right foot.

Ok, I need to rest my foot now. Till my next entry...
