The Solitary Journey We Travel Poem by Deluke Muwanigwa

The solitary journey we travel
Is a journey of unknown miles
Your date of arrival will unravel

Your date of arrival will unravel
On the day that you pass on
You will be covered in gravel.

The solitary journey we travel
You meet lovers you think you love
And strangers you can't love but marvel

Your date of arrival will unravel
The choices you make affect your journey
Bad choices may affect your arrival

The solitary journey we travel
Is full of excitement and risks
The usual risk and return trade off

Peace be with you traveller
Don't be afraid to fall and rise
On the solitary journey we travel
Because your date of arrival will unravel
