Sahabat

I was thumbing through my book of quotes this late morning. I was deliciously lying in bed, the rain outside. And I came across this short sajak N messaged me maybe about 6 or 7 years ago.

“Sahabat yang beriman bagai mentari yang menyinar,
Sahabat setia bagai pewangi mengharumkan,
Sahabat sejati menjadi pendorong impian,
Sahabat berhati mulia membawa kita ke jalan Allah.”

In our conversation the same day I asked where he got the piece from. He told me that he wrote it himself. I remember laughing and telling him how impressed I was. Then another question popped in my head which I was dying to ask but was not really willing to.

Was it somehow dedicated to me?

I chose to remain delusional and think it such. Pathetic maybe. But you know, how we often seek validation.

I find myself still thinking of him on occasion when I know I should not. I never really know what to do when I miss him.

This song is my favourite from Gee. The words say it all.
