My Only Sister (As you would call me)

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Raheem.

My Dear beloved,

I made a promise to you many years before, in my innocence. I remember vividly. It was the year you were born and our aunt was taking a bath for you. That time, she thought me this song to sing to you : "Ameenatu baby... you are my sister.... I will never leave you... you are my sister." I remember how shy I was to sing those words to you in her presence (I know, silly) even though you were just a baby.

Now, many years after, you've stolen my heart by your mere existence. Your un-explainable sweetness always leaving me without words. You have blossomed, into a sweet scenting beautiful flower, and you have given me many reasons to smile and thank Allah for your very existence.

So now, years after that incident, I stand firm on the ground, your love firmly rooted in my heart, willing to stand by you for as long as Allah decides, and hoping to be your guide through this journey called life. I pray that Allah keeps you steadfast on this beautiful deen, grant you patience and piety and finally reunite us all in Jannah.

Love,
Your only sister.
