Karya-Tamu: This Time

It's that time of the year again
that time of giving and be joyous
that time of discovering oneself and devotion
that time me fast and be cleansed
from sins of the past.

That time where the words 'MUS'
and generous and selfless don't often
find themselves locked together in the same sentence.

But this year, this time things are going to change
this time, I vow to be a better muslim
better son
better brother
better friend
praise be to Allah, for giving me another chance
who sent Ramadhan as a gift to mankind.
