Waiting
I will wait for you again
I thought I would see you in March
As you had promised
You would meet me
When they started counting
I kept waiting
But you never told me
Whether it was worth the time
I waited for you
In Nyanga, Bikita, Binga
Chivi
and you said you would be there
I went to Mutare, Masvingo, Uzumba
Hoping to see you
But you said to meet you at Rainbow Towers
In May . . .
I got caught up in the May Day celebrations
And missed you
Freedom, now that you say
I can only see you in 90 days
I will still be here
Waiting.
