FLICKERS OF TIME 
dear dear one
It's now clocking seven years 
Since you left me in this maddening crowd
Lonely as a grape tree in the yard
Fearing that some strong wind may one day knock me down
I still lay in melee
Hoping that some day
The wind will blow you back to me


When you left me 
The world seemed a void 
I was enclosed with fear 
I became numb
Never did it cross my mind
That I had a second chance at living
But as long as I was breathing
I realized I had no excuse to life
I still lay in melee
Hoping that someday
The wind will blow you back to me


Nevertheless, I composed myself
Basing on how you nurtured me
You always told me 
That I am a woman of inner strength
And a great deal of courage
And if only I I live, I will make you proud
You always said that I am a variant woman
And you see remarkable greatness in me
Whenever your words echo in my brain
I wake up in the darkness to bring the light 
Hoping that some day
The wind will blow you back to me


Seven years have now flown
And I realize that even the strong wind
Will never blow you back to me
I am not sorry 
I will never have you back
But I am glad that you are with God
Now if only I could hear you sing to God
I would be the happiest of all creatures
Seven years of your absence 
But you still lie in my heart
           
                        Mbabazi Stellah
