When My Time Has Come! Poem by Tafadzwa Matamba

When My Time Has Come!

Rating: 5.0


When my time has come and l am gone,
When everything about me has been said and done;
Weep then at all not darling for me!
For the sun again l shall not see;
Even guess what the future will for you bring;
Neither will l hear the birds sing
On a morning beautiful and bright,
Nor the marauding and moaning winds at night.

When my time is up in this world,
And l am by myself in the ground cold;
Weep then at all not darling for me
When my time has come and l am gone!
They might laugh, mock and of you make fun,
Should they discover you called me honey!
Think of me when l am no more
And know that it is you l always shall adore!
