Rest In Peace Brother

REST IN PEACE BROTHER 

I can't even write ??
I can't  cry either 
Even the tears are scared
From talk to u a week ago
Now to Rest In Peace
You won't call me my pet me again
He "is my friend"
Turned "he was my friend"
Death has stung in our backyard 
Spilling it's deadly venom on one of ours

You submitted your breath
You fought a lot
We all hoped you'll win
We even thought you won 
We will bid you goodnight
When we know there won't be another daybreak 
We will tell you to sleep on
When we know you won't wake again
Rest In peace Ola, 
With the true peace your soul deserve

I heard you whisper last night 
Didn't sound like it was you
Had I known I could have sown a seed for you 
If we had to share
Maybe we could  ration it
Promising plant ??
We thought you'd grow to feed the nation 
The autumn ripped off your leaves and sniffed out your life
Let the hell Gate be shut
Find peace on the bosom of the Lord
Till we meet at the other end 
Rest on brother 
??????
