All of us Wan Dauds in the porch,
And I was sitting next to Tok Wan.
Even Tok Mek seemed younger in that dream.
I poked Tok Wan's cheek,
And hugged him,
As if to make sure,
That he is still alive,
That his skin is warm and not cold,
That I could touch and hug him again.
I don't want to brag,
But I know I was his favorite.
I miss Tok Wan so very much.
Tok Wan was the one who taught me how to ride a bike.
Tok Wan was the one who accompanied me when I was in my elementary school.
Tok Wan was the one who made me banana sweets.
I haven't visited his grave for a long time.
And I miss him a lot.
