The Sun is shining
It's 11am
People are;
doing laundry
having brunch
getting ready to go to the mall
The usual?
Well, Sarah is being buried
today
at 25...
She was my mate in High School. Bunked next to me in Form One. My mum never ceased asking of her especially after my cousin passed from sickle cell because Sarah had it too.
She fought valiantly and had a smile even in her pain that re-assured you when she was the one in pain.
Against the odds,
She finished high school
finished Uni
seemed to be getting stronger each day
took ill
gone
at 25...
She has probably been buried already, time difference and all
I’m sitting here looking out my window, beautiful day. People going about their usual business. And yet it’s anything but usual for the people who have to bury or lose their loves ones today.
More importantly, It’s anything but usual for those who never got to see today. RIP Sarah!

ReplyDeleteAmpong, you know! *sigh* I don't even know how her mum must be taking it. One of the worst tragedies is for parents to have to bury their children.

@ Michelle: I am just praying for her family and trying to convince myself she's in a better place with no pain now.
