You Are My Heeeeroooo!!!! You Are My Superstar!!!! 🎼 It's now decades since you left me; your own son. I wish, you were also present today. To sit down with me and hold a tete-a-tete with me. And you would tell me the clandestines of 'our lives' (yours and mine). I sit down today alone, nursing the wounds. The wounds I have received from the battle I endured and fought alone ignorantly. I fought the battle without knowing that I am in any battle at all. I just thought that I was enduring the common struggles and challenges of life. I never knew that I was in a fierce war. With foes I viewed and respected all along in my life as friends and relatives. I treated them thus, because that's the impression I was given. At that tender age you sneaked the 'battle-front' ONLY; if you have been present, you would have guided, trained and instructed me how to survive in this jungle. In bitter tears now, I can plainly cogitate the real life. Although I am wounded, broken, ignored, dispised and relegated by all my kinsmen. They have all disowned me as a renegate, barbarian, hooligan and outcast. None of them enjoy the utterance or hearing of both my name or voice. My only comrade in this entire struggle is my own shadow. My own conscience is the only faithfull pal whisphering to me - "You are a hero par-excellence in the making, Because you refused to fall and slide forever". My only wish - _*only if you were present dad.*_ _*I would have been a force to reckon by now.*_ Yet I know I am a victor, though a lone soldier in the struggle of *'our life'.* I only have the comfort, company and cheering of strangers, to stand up and continue *'our'* struggle. The noble struggle to restore *'our'* stolen identity. *I LOVE YOU BABA* For - #mylatefather #artsandculture *NB: PROFESSOR NONSENSE IS ZICH POET* Follow us on:- *FACEBOOK* *@Zimbabwe Intangible Cultural Heritage* https://www.facebook.com/share/17zXZ2WNmG/?mibextid=wwXIfr *INSTAGRAM* @ *ZICH TV MEDIA* https://www.instagram.com/zichtvmedia/profilecard/?igsh=d3N3ZmlkbTZ4a3E= *TIKTOK* *@ zichtvmedia* https://www.tiktok.com/@zichtvmedia?_t=ZG-8srTiO9lFYH&_r=1 *YOUTUBE* *@ ZICH TV* https://youtube.com/@zichtvmedia?feature=shared 🔄🔄🔄Share our Articles and documentaries with Family and friends
