What is this I hear

It cannot be so, it just cannot be so.

Uzo, cast out thy evil words

and tell me it is not true.

Ejike you can't be dead,

No you can't just pass away like that.

You the liveliest of them all

You whose face bathed constantly in warm smiles

You who charmed us all with your sense of humour.

Even though I had but recently acquainted with you

I cannot forget your remarkable presence.

O if this news I hear is true

then life must be one cruel master

when he cannot appreciate a guy

as wonderful as you.

The grim reaper of the highway

has made a claim for you,

and between the ride, the rider and the ridden

you fell victim to the recklessness of mankind

and thy soul has refused to answer life anymore

but has chosen to rest in peace.

I mourn you, we all mourn you.

Within the while we acquainted with you

You gave us memories of bliss.

If only it were possible that you could wake up and

complete this study with us,

minds couldn't be more gladdened,

but it cannot be so anymore, we are never to meet again

Adieu Ejiks', Adieu.
