"A container can only empty that which it contains."

To my beloved Uncle.

What words could I write to describe the loss we have felt,
For certainly in losing you, we have all lost ourselves.

You were always the concrete that bound our family,
You kept us strong.
Without you here there's a weakness; part of us is gone.

We ask Allah to keep us patient and bestow His mercy upon your soul
A youthful spirit you kept inside;
In our eyes young and never old.

Your love spanned the hearts of anyone lucky enough to know your presence;
A gift you have been to us.
We will always remember your lessons.

You spent precious time enriching minds, with knowledge of all kinds.
And so it is; another like you, my uncle we will never find

Truly a unique beauty you did have and my heart will never forget,
In my memories you will last forever,
As not only my uncle; but my dear friend.

Our faith in Allah let's us know that this is not the end;
I pray, insha'Allah in Jannah we will all meet again.
