I look into his eyes; In the pictures in the videos And I see hope Not a man who was dying before our eyes I see a man who found his purpose Who gave hope to the black nation I look into his eyes And I see a warrior Who wore a mask Everytime he stepped out to the public eye To hide his pain and give hope to those who were still living But as I look upon his face now Eyes closed I still feel the aura reaching out Telling us not give hope up For it is a gift that can never be destroyed So I gaze upon his face I feel proud of the man he showed us The man we knew The one whose strength we shall never comprehend For it gave us hope And in hope we shall remember him in.

The man that now lives in hope
The devil comes to steal. He works in mysterious ways! He is a taker of life. He comes without warning His arrival is never known The pain of a life lost he know not! Why does he pounce unexpectedly  Leaving no time to prepare  It might be gradual  Adding to the pain and helplessness  Or sudden where we expect not Why does he take what he hasn't given He is a thief, robbing and sapping the joy out of us He is undeserving of anything yet leaves us devoid The misery of the loss unbearable  No love spared but the cultivation of hate. With a heavy heart, we mourn the loss A visionary taken from us Our lives will never be the same We have a legacy to pass on To inspire the progeny To dream of a future with no bounds The future of Wakanda, not a forgotten empire It is the the rebirth of a new nation under one flag. Long live Chadwick and a dream fulfilled!
