    Poem Commentary

    In remembrance of Grace Arit Ajagu who passed on the 2nd of December. She alone loved with all of her heart.

    You alone

     We have forgotten how to truly smile
    to throw our heads back and have a laugh
    to cherish life even as it gets pretty tough
    even if the die, to live our dreams a while

    We have forgotten how to truly speak
    drawing water from rich wells of experience
    in the eye of our storm to embrace silence
    through Edens keyhole to take an honest peek

    We have forgotten how to truly love
    to ignore the world and heed our crazy heart
    to follow guiding your dreams down its path
    to rise up to your expectations and above

    We have forgotten the little things that matter
    who will help us remember how to be us again
    who will be our hero who soothes our pain
     who will save our fragile hearts from life's batter

    Who can this person be if not truly you
    who never forgot to live a life that is true

    Thank you and yes I loved her deeply, she was a mother like no other.

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
