Oh,
the
distance
is
a
heavy
road
But
the
heart
carries
the
load
Edna
Bwalya,
Joseph
Katuna
Jr.
Waiting
for
the
day
The
sun
sets
low
across
the
palms
I’
m
looking
out
toward
the
sea
Searching
for
a
sign
in
the
morning
calms
Wondering
where
you
both
might
be
I
count
the
days
since
you
went
away
My
house
feels
empty
and
so
cold
There’
s
so
much
left
that
I
want
to
say
More
than
the
stories
that
we
told
Oh,
my
children,
no
matter
how
far
you
roam
My
heart
is
the
compass
that
guides
you
home
Edna
Bwalya,
Joseph
Katuna
Jr.,
hear
my
prayer
I’
m
waiting
for
the
moment
that
we’
re
together
again
Yes,
I’
m
waiting,
I’
m
waiting
for
the
day
To
wipe
all
the
lonely
tears
away
I
keep
your
photos
on
the
wooden
shelf
I
talk
to
the
shadows
on
the
wall
Sometimes
I
lose
track
of
myself
Waiting
for
the
echo
of
your
call
Life
takes
you
down
a
winding
street
With
mountains
high
and
oceans
wide
But
even
when
we
cannot
meet
I
keep
you
closely
here
inside
Oh,
my
children,
no
matter
how
far
you
roam
My
heart
is
the
compass
that
guides
you
home
Edna
Bwalya,
Joseph
Katuna
Jr.,
hear
my
prayer
I’
m
waiting
for
the
moment
that
we’
re
together
again
Yes,
I’
m
waiting,
I’
m
waiting
for
the
day
To
wipe
all
the
lonely
tears
away
Time
is
a
river
that
flows
so
deep
But
love
is
the
island
where
we
belong
Promises
made
are
the
ones
I
keep
And
in
my
silence,
you
are
my
song
I
miss
you,
I
miss
you
more
than
words
can
say
Every
single
night,
every
single
day
The
coconut
trees
sway
in
the
breeze
Whispering
secrets
of
your
return
Bringing
my
weary
mind
to
ease
For
the
simple
joy
for
which
I
yearn
Just
to
see
your
faces
at
the
door
To
hold
you
near
and
never
let
go
That
is
what
I’
m
longing
for
More
than
anyone
will
ever
know
Oh,
my
children,
no
matter
how
far
you
roam
My
heart
is
the
compass
that
guides
you
home
Edna
Bwalya,
Joseph
Katuna
Jr.,
hear
my
prayer
I’
m
waiting
for
the
moment
that
we’
re
together
again
Yes,
I’
m
waiting,
I’
m
waiting
for
the
day
To
wipe
all
the
lonely
tears
away
I’
m
waiting,
my
children
Edna,
Joseph,
come
back
to
me
Across
the
distance,
over
the
sea
I’
m
waiting,
always
waiting (
