Last night when I opened the book of my memories,
My soul cried,
Of what I had lost in life.

My Soul
Salmabanu Hatim Feb 2022
I came with you,
A Gift from Allah,
And I will return back to HIM with you.
You are my guide,
My companion,
My melodius song.
You get me through life,
I cannot live without you,
Each day and night I pray for your purity.
Soul of mine,
I am glad you are there for me,
One of a kind.

My Love
Salmabanu Hatim Feb 2022
She was my cosmos flower,
An Autumn bloom,
A hue of happiness.
And whenever I looked deep into her sparkling eyes I sensed her love for me,
Her soul singing 'I love you.
At that moment I felt my worth for her to love me so.

My Cat

Nowhere to go,
Everything looked bleak,
Without a hope,
Instead of a hand,
I found a paw.

Why Worry
Salmabanu Hatim Feb 2022
Let's learn the basics,
Reading, writing, drawing and maths,
Leave the rest to Allah and Google,
Allah maps our destiny and His tests and trials are enough in life
And Google knows all,
It will answer what we want to know,
No tension,
Enjoy life🥳

Empty-handed
Salmabanu Hatim Jan 2022
God placed on this earth precious minerals,oil gas,
Take as much as you want,
Nature with means for you to survive the way you want,
Gave you brain to go to the moon,
Scout the universe with latest technology,
Made men into trillionaires.
billionaires and millionaires,
With complete freedom,
Without any security,
But when HE calls you to HIM,
You go empty-handed.

When He Died
Salmabanu Hatim Jan 2022
The wife cried her heart out,
Complaining to Allah for taking him away so soon,
And what would happen to her and her two children.
Allah whispered,"He was my creation and I took him,
Just as I gave him the means to look after you,
So shall I give you the means to look after yourself and your children  depending on your destiny."

Alzheimer
Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2021
I seem to forget nowadays,
I am afraid,
I don't want to lose my sweet memories,
And not recognise my children.

Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2021
That was my husband,
He rarely said "I love you,"
But his actions showed what I meant to him.
He was always by my side,
Kind, gentle and reassuring,
Be it a visit to a doctor,
A family feud,
Or hassle with my in-laws.
Though he was not for candlelight dinner,
He took me frequently to dinner, picnic and movies,
But to the ones I enjoyed.
He did all the DIY work around the house,
Before I knew something needed to be repaired it was already done.
After early morning and evening prayers I enjoy reciting Quran, duas and talking to Allah,
So he would help me with sending the children to school,
And bed at night,
Though he never helped with cooking or housework,
He lived for his family,
And when he died,
For me it was as if my computer had crashed and I had to start all over again.
I never knew the house needed so much repair,
Nor so many bills needed to be settled,
Or where to shop for groceries.

I Erred
Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2021

I started thinking of him as my whole world,
I expected the same in return,
But for him the hug meant friendly affection.

Breath
Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2021
Each breath takes me to what I had been,
To what I am meant to be,
And the mistakes I make along the way,
Are lessons to reinvent myself.

Unlucky
Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2021
I am always unlucky in my relationship with my family friends and near and dear ones,
Somebody else is always more loved or preferred than I,
It hurts deeply,
I still have a healthy relationship with them,
But this time I don't expect anything in return.

One sided Love
Salmabanu Hatim Dec 2021
When he first spoke my name,
It was like nectar dripping into my heart,
Like a flower my love began to bloom for him,
Soon to fall away because of his indifference.
