Breath-like

Oh,
Thelma...
Thelma
Chilufya...
We
walked
the
dusty
paths
of
long
ago
Back
when
we
were
children,
wide-eyed
and
slow
We
stumbled
through
the
seasons,
the
rain
and
the
fire
But
you
remained
the
flame
of
my
deepest
desire
From
the
playground
games
to
the
heavy
weight
of
years
We
dried
each
other's
eyes,
we
swallowed
all
the
fears
Through
every
broken
bridge
and
every
mountain
tall
You
were
the
one
standing
steady
through
it
all
Oh,
Thelma
Chilufya,
you
are
my
heart’
s
own
beat
My
childhood
wife,
my
soul’
s
retreat
The
bond
we
built
is
woven
in
the
light
of
the
stars
Unbreakable,
eternal,
healing
all
our
scars
I
chose
you
then,
I
choose
you
every
day
anew
Until
the
final
breath,
my
love
belongs
to
you
People
talk
of
love
as
a
fleeting
thing
But
they
don't
know
the
melody
that
you
and
I
sing
We’
ve
carried
silent
burdens,
we’
ve
weathered
the
gale
A
story
written
in
ink
that
will
never
turn
pale
You
know
the
rhythm
of
my
soul,
the
depth
of
my
pain
You
were
my
shelter
in
the
middle
of
the
rain
No
distance
can
divide
what
the
spirit
has
tied
With
you,
Thelma,
I
have
nowhere
to
hide
Oh,
Thelma
Chilufya,
you
are
my
heart’
s
own
beat
My
childhood
wife,
my
soul’
s
retreat
The
bond
we
built
is
woven
in
the
light
of
the
stars
Unbreakable,
eternal,
healing
all
our
scars
I
chose
you
then,
I
choose
you
every
day
anew
Until
the
final
breath,
my
love
belongs
to
you
And
if
the
world
should
quiet,
and
if
the
shadows
grow
I’
ll
hold
your
hand
firmly,
I’
ll
never
let
go
Beyond
the
edge
of
time,
beyond
the
reach
of
grief
You
are
my
only
anchor,
my
permanent
relief
My
Thelma,
my
life,
my
heart
is
yours
alone
In
every
single
kingdom,
in
every
single
home
Oh,
Thelma
Chilufya,
you
are
my
heart’
s
own
beat
My
childhood
wife,
my
soul’
s
retreat
The
bond
we
built
is
woven
in
the
light
of
the
stars
Unbreakable,
eternal,
healing
all
our
scars
I
chose
you
then,
I
choose
you
every
day
anew
Until
the
final
breath,
my
love
belongs
to
you
Till
death,
my
dear...
Just
you
and
I...
Thelma
Chilufya...
Always
at
my
heart. (
