I took my abaya,
My headscarf,
My socks,
Put them on,
And left the room.

I hurried downstairs,
And rushed towards the gate.
I knew it was suppose to be them,
Taking the parcel.

But little did I care,
To take it for them.
To help ease their day.
For I had always known,
That they were busy.

They were having a hard time,
So I took it for them.
Brought the parcel upstairs,
Without feeling a glimpse of hatred,
Nor anger.

For they are my friends,
That I shall cherish forever.
Though they had done nothing,
But the opposite.

I love them still.
Helped them still.
For I appreciate this friendship,
More than my ego.
