Departure of a beautiful soul.

by Rawan   Aug 19, 2006


A girl gets out from bed and gets on her weak knees drawing her last breath.
You hear her quiet voice call out prayers as she knows she's an inch from death.
She bows down to Allah as she is ready to meet him.
Tears fall from her mother's eyes because she knows her daughter's chances are slim.
How she was brought here brings her grief.
The explosion happened in a split second as people stared in disbelief.
A poor child who never saw life like someone who was free.
Had dreams of going to college and earning her degree.
Her dreams now broken like her limbs and her family's heart.
Who would have never imagined their baby depart.
She is done with her prayer as she says goodbye to her brothers.
Her mother breaks down as she realized that her daughter was praying for the health of others.
