I Need You Poem by Thabile Nhlapo

I need you.... I need you
All that you are is but just a passing shadow
An illusion from all the broken memories
Playing a chorus behind every unsung hymn
Louder it goes with every line

I miss you....I Miss you
You are but just a passing shadow
A grey illusion of the colour realm you once were
A tenth of your former self
Memories of your lifeless body lie bare
Itching to be erased they just stare at me

I MISS YOU......I MISS YOU-
Death snatched you too early!
