Bongiwe, my beloved daughter,

My precious unseen one,

I take each step

In memory of you.

My body claims its breath

As yours no longer does.

My heart beats on

While yours is gone.

Bongi, my beloved one,

I am tossed,

I am torn,

I am stretched,

I am tested at each turn.

I keep moving, in honour of you.

I move because life and love surround me,

Urge me on.

Sometimes

I wonder

What you would wish

For me.
