You would have turned 27 years of age today
But sadly you are gone
Gone too soon
And such a great life
Was cut short
I still think of you Brother
Life is not the same
In your absentia
The world suffers
Born on March the 22nd
And sometimes in my imagination
Consumed by wishful thought
Where you'd be now if death never found
Your death was painful
Cruel gangsters killed you only for your phone
They robbed the future
Rest in Peace Siviwe
You were on the prime of your future
An inspiration that achieved
Won many souls
But we have to accept
Maybe your season had to end
Only memories will remain
We miss you Mntakwethu
Death is ancient
And it has a touch
That leaves permanent marks
Only memories remain
I remember you on those Poetry Sessions
You had it for the Stage
More than just a Performer
They will never be the same
Your space is too big to not notice
None will ever fill
We miss you Fellow Artist
You gave life a meaning
Though yours was short but you shared it
We proud to say
We walked and breathed the same air
With a Soldier like you
Died too Young
Too good to stay
I hope your wounds have healed
As we try to heal our emotional ones
By your death they were created
I hate crime
Rest in Paradise my Brother
And Happy Birthday Son of the Soil
_Dedication to Siviwe Ntsizi who was born on 22 March some Years ago...... and died sometime in September 2011. Never to be forgotten.
