Pray As Much As I Do

Has always been my dream,
to wake you up in the wee small hours of the morning,
and then we pray together for the eternal happiness,
and for the meaningful togetherness.

Has always been in my prayers,
to prepare your suit and your tie,
to turn on the water heater and put your towel in the bathroom,
and then go to the kitchen to prepare your breakfast.

Has always been on my wish list,
to brush your hair with my fingers,
kiss you on the forehead,
and on the back of your hand,
tell you, "Have a nice day at work, Honey. And come home soon."

Has always been my desire,
to take care of you when you're sick, or even when you're just feeling bad,
to take care, to protect, to love, to raise, and to educate the children of ours,
to watch every single step of their lives on the becoming of the best generation.

Has always been a very beautiful longing,
to wait you come home from work, while cooking your favorite foods,
and see our children running here and there, with smile on their happy face.

Until you finally come home, and we welcome you with the warmest hugs and kisses.
And you carry our children on your shoulders, while they telling you stories from school.
We take wudhu and do maghrib prayer together,
we read Qur'an and you give us some spiritual advices.
Then we sit together on the couch, hot tea, fried bananas or pancake, small talk, and jokes. We help our children doing their homework and take them to bed, tell them some good stories and kiss them good night.
And then finally we have our own space and time, to share what we've been through, and maybe a little talk about the future, or maybe just sit in silence, or even maybe we're gonna arguing things, but then we do understand each other. We spend our quality time together.

Yes, it has always been a very beautiful longing. And Insha Allah, I believe, Allah has already prepared the very best match. And you, I am very sure that wherever you are, you also pray as much as I do :)
