#RamadanRuminations Day 10: Ramadan the Balm

Though the tears be free-flowing
The grief is lighter
In Ramadan
The ache in the heart less piercing
The pain more bearable
In Ramadan

Even the hunger is sweet
The anger is beat
The struggle is fun
In Ramadan

Though the tears be free-flowing
The light shines brighter
In Ramadan

Though Ramadan is my happiest month of the year, ever since being acquainted with grief, I've learnt it never really goes away. I read somewhere that grief is the price we pay for love. And if so, I will pay for it always. But Ramadan makes it easier. 💚
