A Bond So Strong (Ode To A Loving Soul)

I would never have believed that a bond so strong could be formed within a year.

We were of different tribes but it never mattered; our sisterly love would never wear.

The chit-chats we had; the way we helped each other…

I never knew those things bound us together.

The discussions about life, relationships, and careers…

I guess all those broke the barriers.

Your selflessness is rare, your love had no boundaries

I wish my nation would learn from us and unite despite the tributaries…yes, just like the River Benue and River Niger which they say separate us as east, west, north, and south.

Seeing your belongings all gathered up as you prepare to return to your home…

I wonder if it wouldn’t have been better if we never left our homes.

Because the pain I feel inside is so intense, it’s as though I have a blister… yes, a blister within my soul.

You’re a friend turned sister… a soul-lifter.

I know this pain won’t last forever…

We’ll definitely meet again – wherever
