»In loving memory of Justice Thabo Nkosi«

by Maviyo Nkosi

5th May 2006, night it was
You had to go I had to stay
Like an other ordinary day
I heard a hooter from the police car
Duty calls!! There you went...

Morning came, a dark cloud had appeared
Tragedy had occurred
Tears fell, pain took over
Dreams fell, young you were
But had to go

Parents, brothers, sisters and
Friends left behind
Unanswered questions remained
Justice was your name
But it hasn't been done

You seldom talked
But when you did
You created options and joy
Love and respect was in you
You never questioned, only gave your all
Last night you were here,
Today you are gone, bodies go and
Heroes disappear, but
Spirits and memories remain with us.
You may be gone but never forgotten
Rest in peace JUSTICE
