Tribute

Tribute As young as we were, playing in the rain Totally naked with no hard feelings We played our hearts out till our parents called We chase and catch flying insects when the rain stops The sun shines over our heads even as we sat under trees Making bags and skirts out of fallen leaves We play and fight but we fight to make up You were the best friend I ever had We ate together,walked to school together and oh yeah we bath together Even though we saw each other as friends Our parents calls us husband and wife At school I never left your side I help you finish your class work on time My pencil was your pencil and eraser was your eraser Some teachers taught we were siblings Some also said we look alike It felt like the time never moved But its amazing how time flies so quick We grew so fast into adults We were separated by distance I didn't know where you moved to If I had known, I would have traveled to you My heart longed for you My soul yearned for you Distance indeed is wicked I knew you missed me just as I did All I had was our childhood photo I found it difficult to love any other girl Your memories were inscribed on to my heart Your name rang in my head all the time Where ever you are please think about me I pray we meet again, but where? If you had informed me, I swear I would have followed you I know its never too late to do that but, I will stay back to tell everyone how we begun our journey And tell them how painfully you left without informing me My tears will never stop running down My heart will never stop grieving My life will never stop being useless without you Death is indeed inevitable Rest In Peace my friend,my sister, my lover You were all this to me and I will continue to love you till we meet again.. #REST_IN_PERFECT_PEACE Poet: Isaac Asante ©2018
