As I sit here and write this, the one emotion I'm truly feeling is: Grief. My beautiful Asfa... has passed away. As of the morning of February 8th, 2006.. She is with God. She is with the angels. She is at Peace. No longer a victim of the sickness that ravaged her body, and controlled her life... I've written something for her, and to her.. I hope you value it, as much as I did her.


An angel, gone too soon
A flower plucked, before it's bloom
May happiness lay in your wake
And sunshine fall on those you smile upon
Pray for me dear sister
I'll love you 'til the sun no longer rises.


Every tear I shed for you, will be not only in grief, but in joy
Because I know you're nearer to God
And the angels have welcomed you as one of their own
With open arms they lead you to the serenity you once sought.


Live on my cherished sister
You will always live on
In our hearts, our minds,
Our souls, and our memories
May God bless you, the way you blessed us.


Ameen.
