We Live To Die And Die To Live Poem by Lindokuhle Dawordplaymind Nkosi

I remember that day when you passed away
It felt like the entire world has died with you
I remember that day when my Mom passed on
It felt like my world passed on with her
I remember that day when the world swallowed my niece too
Everything I loved and cherished died too
I remember when they all died to me
My happiness also died in me
Enemies rejoiced at the expense of my pains
Death killed you and my heart died too
Oh Mommy and my uncle!
You are now no where to be seen with naked eyes
But forever loved and cherished in memories
They dug you deep inside the hole
Then turned the sod over your caskets
That was your last goodbyes
I'm certainly sure you rested in peace
For I saw it written all over your face
And all the sorrows you have abandoned- is now with us
But hopefuly someday we'll meet in the world above.

Oh how I always remember the memories we had together!
They'll always live on in me forever
Just yesterday I was with you
But now you've become ancestors,
Which reminds me that someday- I'll also become an ancestor
To me you'll forever shine bright more than a star...

I miss you so much
And hopefully now you live your life at ease
But know that soon I'll also join you,
For I'm living in the borrowed seconds
Prepare for my room
A room that'll be full of peace and warmth
For I'm tired living upon this rumbling troublesome world
Certainly when I'm there, I'll have peace at last
My heart will dance in joy remembering the past
Probabbly I'll find happiness, which I never tasted upon this world
For I'll see paradise with my naked eyes
People shouldn't worry when my grave is not that fancy like the ones for celebs
'cause it may look beautiful to people's eyes
Yet I never live a beautiful life
Oh my children will shed bitter tears!
With the ones who once loved me
Oh my family will shed bitter tears!
With the ones who once hated me
Oh how they'll sing their goodbyes with river of tears
For Heaven is awaiting!
'Oh holy Heaven, holy Heaven!
You are waiting for your child'
This is a song my heart will sing
This is the same song I'll sing before I drew my last breath
'Dear Lord!
Thou who art in Heaven
Please light up my path with a candle of peace
Im tired living in this troublesome world'.
