So Long I Guess

05Mar07

It wasn’t just a phone it was somoething so close to me, it was my watch, my notebook and my alarm clock. It was the first phone I buy with my own money, and the second to one I received as my high school graduation gift. I was so proud of myself, buying my own stuff with my own money. But what apparently meant a lot more to me is a few messages I kept as memories thought I’d treasure forever, yea I’ve just said the forbidden word, forever. Those messages, those memories that are now gone, forever, were the first thing to come to mind.

Was it worth it, to keep them in the first place? How painful it is when you keep a happy memory thinking that it will always be a happy one, only to be the reminder of something missing.

    You mean both the phone and the number are gone with the wind? How can I contact you?

    Hala, redrose, Isam, life thank you

    Dave, it was my first phone but most importantly, I had some speical text messages in my phone. I care about these things, I still have slips with stupid meaningless things written on them since grade school.

    As salaam alaikum,

    I am a Canadian Muslim writer of short fiction, poetry and ‘daily news commentary’. Come by inshallah for a quick read when you have 59 seconds or so.

    Wa salaama,

    nuh ibn
