Things wouldn’t be the same
Things wouldn’t be the same ( Lidwine.RIP) by MLK.
You left us nothing but tears and memories If I was there I’d keep your name away from stories They told me late so I wasn’t at your funeral But believe I got touched deep within my soul.
How could I stand a 22 year-old friend getting buried? The world should have stopped to turn, to breed… Instead we kept living our lives even me Running after dreams someone else made for me.
I tried a while to avoid looking at you in the eyes But if I wasn’t at your funeral, Lidwine my soul was Actually it is still there, wondering why And I am here waiting for god’s reply.
Let me pay u the tribute you really deserved And if some people thought u were disturbed They definitely didn’t know you that well You went to heaven let them go to hell.
“She was clever, strong sometimes weak People used to tell she was a freak Our Geniuses fill our hospitals and jails While our world lies on a chair without nails.
She left us with her writings a legacy That should be on the walls at the academy A talented poetess that the sun never reached She shouldn’t be dead she should be rich.
She used to write poems in class smiling to me Forgetting the teacher passing them on discreetly I would let her know my opinion by reply And time at school would just fly.”
U remember the day we went to the forest When we saw a man with his hunting vest We ran and started to hear sounds of a bullet Just know these are things I can’t forget…
I just wish I knew if you are resting in peace Forgive them for not knowing who Lidwine is And believe me if u were alive things wouldn’t be the same Just know my daughter will wear proudly your name.
MLK. To lilou

i am afraid that one day, a very close friend of mine who’s suffering from illness would be gone too. he had become an instrument for my well being here in america for almost 10 years now. i just hope that he would live more years and can be strong enough to travel for more with me. God is Good.
