She was a friend, with smiles no end.
She was my twin, didn't think  what I am was a sin.
She accepted me, friends forever to be...

She was murdered in her sleep they say,
strangled and *****...

Tears streaming down my face, so sad.
Emotions going wild,
shock all over my body.
Have I just lost the one and only friend I had?

She was a friend, with smiles no end.
She was my twin, didn't think  what I am was a sin.
She accepted me, friends forever to be...
Or so I thought...

R.I.P. my dear friend,
I'll see you again someday,
It's so beautiful up there they say...
Is it true?
Tell me all about it when I see you when Time allows it...

I sit in a restaurant, quietly drinking my wine...

I notice our waiter in his black & white clothes, His shoes were old and raggedy.
I think of him struggling to earn a living,
Surviving off the tips customers give him after serving their food and drinks...
And yet he is smiling.

I watch a 65 year old couple playful arguing about what to eat.
Surely They've been doing this for years cause the waiters greet them by name.
Aah, Love never grows old. *(Mr & Mrs Koekemoer)

I see a business man suited and booted. His always on the phone and always in a hurry. He spills some coffee on his white shirt.
Ag! He seems to be annoyed with himself...

Now I'm looking at this Girl in front of me. A cute yellow-bone with a mini-afro.
She has brown eyes and her lips are shining with cherry lip-gloss. Her smile can sink a thousand ships.
Wow, I'm happy around her.

But...

I notice the missing finger she tries to hide with her other hand. No poetry can describe thy brutality.
But still, she is WORTH it...
I wanna tell her this but I am too shy...
So, I smile at myself for being a coward. (coward, as I slowly drink the rest of the wine...)
