The writer would like to dedicate this poem to Jedidiah Chauke, Priviledge Makasi, her mother and anyone who has lost people they loved.
The sun rises and sets
The melody begins and ends
The fire ignites then fades
Today comes and goes
In the true manner of life
Everything is but a phase
That passes like the seasons’
As all good things come to an end
Thought the heart sees
It fails to comprehend
Though it hears
It fails to understand
Though it sees the signs
It fails to read between the lines
It refuses to acknowledge how the end comes
It hurts and cries
And wonders at the injustice
Of why good things come to an end
When the time to say goodbye comes
The heart cannot help but look back
On yesterdays memories
When the time to forget arrives
Loves footprints on the heart are not erased but only fade
When the time to part ways comes
Hearts cannot abandon the love they made
They refuse to acknowledge
That all good things come to an end
By Tanyaradzwa Vanadis Masaire
