My
name
is
Kapoma
The
Year
was 2012
September 24
My
friends
from
home
followed
me
to
school
They
told
me
your
mum
has
send
us
she
wants
you
While
on
the
way
home
I
wondered
why
what
did
I
do?
Upon
reaching
home
I
heard
people
crying
While
still
shocked
someone
shouted
Junior
your
father
is
dead
I
felt
helpless
and
I
couldn't
believe
the
news
I
wondered
what
will
happen
to
us
next
Mum
was
not
working
by
then
nor
doing
business
Chorus
Your
death
pained
me,
you
left
gap
in
our
hearts....
You
left
when
we
needed
you
the
most
Our
little
brother
Paul
was
just
two
years....
Me
being
the
first
born
that's
when
I
was
working
on
my
education
You
left
mum
helpless
My 2
sisters
Christabel,
Pauline

peace
