Truth Poem by Artwell Masuku

We were friends once
I knew him from my childhood
But as friends sometimes do
We lost contact with one another
Since then my wandering eyes
Have been seeking blindly for him

I ran into him
When I went on a far away journey
I had turned my eyes from him
But he recognised me
Approached me
We talked
Had lunch together
And reminisced about old days

I embraced him
Forever more
We exchanged information on
Where we resided currently
And made a vow
To never lose touch
Until the day we die

I looked at him
Amazed he had not changed
Back then I knew Truth
And he was my friend
