fatuma

fatuma
if only I knew her
before, fatuma
she always manages to restore
my faith in people
with her understanding
fatuma,
I don't know anyone
more upstanding
more intelligent
more relevant
than you
fatuma
you've got bags of talent
you're such a balanced
girl,
god bless
fatuma,
if only I knew her
before,
she could have taught me so much more
than my teachers
with her kindness
her ability to create, write, to make
people happy
with her bright bright brightness
for her acceptance of folk
however flawed/ however doped
thank you fatuma
-for just being you-
