You were there for me
When I couldn’t find my shirt
You saw my hands forage
In vain in my wardrobe hoping to find it
You tapped on to my shoulders
And handed the shirt to me
You were there for me
On the busy streets of Nairobi
Dashing shoulders snapped on mine
I did not know what to do,
But you! You shouted stop!
Reached out to my hand
And helped me cross the road
You were there for me
When you added me more smiles
Yes you! Signs TV!
You made sure I felt involved, engaged!
I did not miss out , I was caged in
On any information and that evolved me
You connected me to many more Like me
Thank you for being there for me
Your love so unconditionally
Has passed the tests of time
And now you have helped me unlock
The love that was always there
That will always be here
Notes of love.
