Sep 2021
Dreams dashed
Hopes burned out
The future diminished into a casket
In your honour
Friend should lose the "i" and the "n"
Being a substitute for your sake then
I thought life has just began
Not knowing
It was going to an end
The struggles in recall lives my eyes Swimming in tears
And I wish to turn back time
It's Sad but your faith makes me glad
Because I believe it still will carry you
Most especially to where we pray for
Hopes burned out

Being a substitute for your sake then
I thought life has just began
Not knowing
It was going to an end
The struggles in recall lives my eyes Swimming in tears
And I wish to turn back time
It's Sad but your faith makes me glad
Because I believe it still will carry you
Most especially to where we pray for
Finally completed a poem in honour of a friend I lost during COVID 19 lockdown. It's sad considering his struggles in life to succeed only to die when it seems he has finally made it. It took me a year and a half to put this words together because of the emotions which keeps me abandoning it severally. Rest in Peace Fred.
