You left without warning

Nobody knew you were going

Our search was brought to a halt

As no one seemed to know who's at fault.



I really didn't know you that well

We didn't even say a word to each other

Across the room and the hallway, no one dared

Tell that we're just strangers to one another.



All friends gathered for the final prayer.

Really, but your body was not even there

They kept you frozen as we saw you in the coffer

The house turned chaotic when all said farewell.



I noticed the glass door left ajar by who knows

It was midnight and the guests were still there

I went by that door to close it; and, oh what a goose

Bumps came crawling on my skin as you were here.
