A Love Letter to My BFF

Such a good poems or monologue or kinda an appreciation from Sis Aida, you name it..


To all the books I ever read,
There's a million and one things I have to tell you,
But I have to start by thanking you,

Thank you for welcoming me into your world,
a world where knowledge is sacred,
passions are celebrated,
and the world that is open and safe for all.

Thank you for being a home for me,
whenever I'm in a foreign land.
Thank you for teaching me how to be OK,
alone, on my own.
For showing me that, sometimes,
Solitude is necessary for Self-Growth.
Thank you for allowing me to feel what it's like to hold
overwhelming happiness between my tiny hands.

You've also proved to be the quietest,
but most powerful of all my friends,
because pressed between your pages,
you've taught me Kindness,
you've taught me Grace,
and you've taught me Love.
But most of all I want to thank you
because you've taught me Faith.

Every time I'm with you,
I'm reminded the of the very first word
that Allah SWT commanded to Rasulullah SAW
which was "Iqra'", to read.

And for that, no amounts of "thank you" 
will be enough to repay you,
for being a means for me,
to draw closer to My Lord,
and His Prophet, SAW.
