We're born
To pass through
The land
Of the unknown.
The promised land
Is our destination.
Whether we creep, walk, run or gallop,
There's only one way out.
Some people are lucky to find theirs early.
No escape... no hiding.
On. On...
We shall leave here -
One person at a time.

I heard about the death of Nikita Pearl Waligwa, a fifteen year old girl who played the role of Gloria in Disney's The Queen of Katwe. I was so downhearted and wondered why death would be so cold to a beautiful princess as her.

One thing came to mind - this earth is not our permanent home. We are just on a journey and those who find their home leave us.

Fare thee well young princess

Mamba Forever

No tears seem to express.
No words seem to explain.
My heart has sunken into my gut
As the world is hooded with pain.

A jack of many trades.
A master of them all.
An artist in the greatest form
Whose paintbrush was a ball.

This life makes little sense.
Souls taken far too soon.
We must cherish the ones we love
Because our time, we cannot choose.

The Mamba lives forever,
In the hearts of old and young.
The hope you gave to many
Will be shared for years to come.

The memories will never fade.
Your legacy will live on.
A hero of the game we love,
But a legend far beyond.

My heart is broken and I wrote this. The only thing I could think to do was to share it because so many people are feeling the way I'm feeling right now. Lost. Confused. Sad. Angry. But we have to remember that we are stronger in numbers and we're all grieving together so I hope ya'll enjoy this.

RIP Kobe and Gigi. You will be sincerely missed.

Grandmother

She smiled
She made us laugh
She blessed us
And then
She went to the Lord

To Abram

I am numb because I heard
That you were gone
So young, so soon
You will not know
The way I wept
Because there is
No sadness in Heaven

I picked a rose
To take home with me
No sooner did I hold
It in my hands
Than it fell to pieces
Its fragrant little petals
Floating to the ground

For my baby brother ❤️

RIP Pup

You brightened our days
In all sorts of ways
You created smiles and laughter
Every memory we share
We'll remember with care
For now and every day after

From the very start
You stole our hearts
We'll cherish you forever
We'll never forget you
Or the shoes you chewed
You'll leave our hearts never

Sammy you will always be loved
As you watch us from above
And your soul returns to the breeze
The look in your eyes
When we look at the skies
We'll know you are happy and free

You lived your life in glory
And were an important part of our story
Cheeky til the very end
Too good for this earth
Until you rebirth
We'll see you again best friend
