The days may pass, the seasons may flow, 
Yet pieces of you still softly glow. 
In laughter once shared, in stories retold, 
A Bond unbroken, more precious than gold. 

The night may fall, the stars may fade, 
But echoes remain of the joy we made. 
Through distance and time, the truth will not bend, 
You'll always be with me, my dear friend. 

And when I wander through silence deep, 
Your memory stirs, it will not sleep. 
No shadow can take what the heart enfolds–
You will always continue to shine in my memories like gold. 

–S. Yusuf
