As Long As We Live

[*~MuDa~*]

Elegy for Sa?adatu Haruna Yakubu (Shy)
A Level III Student in
Bayero University Kano,
Department Of English & European Languages
Passed away on 13th August 2006

It is hard to believe,
Very difficult to accept,
The news of your death stroke me deeply,
Like a machete to my heart,

I couldn?t believe my ears,
I couldn?t imagine the reality,
But what would I have done?
You left us too soon,

We can cry,
From now to eternity,
We can curse,
As hard as the thunder,
But all to no avail,

We shall never forget you,
For it is like yesterday,
We were together,
And just like that you are gone,

But you will ever live in our hearts,
No matter the time,
Like a carving on a stone,
We shall never forget you,
As long as we live!

May Allah find it in His mercy to make her gentle soul rest in peace!

[gogannaka]

That is so sad.May her soul rest in peace.

Thanx a lot mate, she was so dear to us!

Allahsarki allah ya jikanta ameen.

[Fulani Poet]

May her soul rest in peace.

When I was in my second year at ABUZ, we lost a classmate during one of the student riots. It was very heavy on us but God knows best!

[HUSNAA]

Why is it always so shocking to hear the death of someone we know even though we all know its a one way road for all of us, and sooner or later we will reach the end of it  :( ?

[*~MuDa~*]

Well Husnaa the thing is u have it in ur mind that somebody so dear to u or very important to you, that makes u smile, that gives u happiness, or touches some other aspects of your life passes away, and u know u will never ever see that person again, like a joke but it is real, at least u r alive but her she is dead, isolated and u dont know in which condition the person may be.

On my part, the last day i set my eyes on sa'a was the day i gave her an assignment she asked me to help her work out on the internet coz she was busy. i really hate doing assignment for people especially on the net, but a frend of mine persisted that i help which i did, though we were ral close with her but she was so happy to have it. that was the last i saw her when she went to submit it. After 2weeks i heard about her death...appendicitis.

Thank All yall for the care. i'm really gratefull!

[Fulani Poet]

That's the thing about death, isn't it? We can never get used to it though it is one of the certainest things on earth! I guess it is like that because we remember one or two things that we cherish about the people we lose through death.

[*~MuDa~*]

Lets just pray that some people will remember us and pray for us after we die!

[IBB]

Allah ji kan musulmai baki daya. Ameen. Allah kuma ya kyautata namu zuwan yasa muciki da imani. Ameen
