My Other Half

As the loneliness took over
The memories became sweeter
As the numbness of the heart became unbearable
The love that was given unconditionally grew
Who would have known

Time healed the wounds
But the pain is unforgettable
The sequence of events occurred
But the honour that was given became the only way
Resting peacefully as you are, Sibongile
