How would I know that
today is the last goodbye
between you and I?
Am so grief stricken
upon the sad news of you
leaving forever
Crystals of my eyes
drop so weakly one by one
wishing you would stay
Alas, I'm human
having not a single strength
to fight against fate
I watch silently
you in a beautiful gown
leaving to meet Him
My prayers for you
in my heart, your name engraved
Rest in peace, my dear

**It gives me so much sadness in writing this Haiku as a dedication for my beloved friend who was also a colleague who succumbed to her illness today at 9.30 a.m. She was a real fighter going through the painful times the past eight years. We are of different beliefs but could get along fine with each other. A beautiful young woman who had been a darling to everyone left imprints in my heart.**
