Olamide: We Cannot Say Goodbye!


Olamide Elizabeth Adeyooye
We thought you would be found alive and well
But, the worst news is what we received from Mississippi.
The depth of our sorrow words cannot tell.
That your Space would be left empty on My Space
For nobody can take your place.


Olamide Elizabeth Adeyooye
How can we believe that you would be lost from this wicked world forever?
But we believe that wherever you are now, you are safer in the hands of our creator.
Oh! Olamide! Olamide!! Olamide!!!
The beloved of the father and family.
The joy of all and sundry.
The memories of you will linger


Olamide, I will light a candle for you in my heart.
The candlelight that will never go out
For the flame of your spirit will continue to glow in transit.
Olamide! Olamide!! Olamide!!!
We cannot say goodbye!

  3. Thank you for caring.
    When we release our burden, God takes it away from us. To free us.

    God bless.
