My sashay from the Maximum to the Capital


Two years went by, on the roller-coaster ride
It was good and bad, I must take it in my stride
Now it’s time to move on, back to the pride
Both old and new, anticipations entwined

These last few days, like the first ones, shall be
Ever in my memories, every day that I see
I found myself in this city of dreams,
More grounded I think, with the lessons it would teach

I had left my nest to be with my soul (mate)
They took me in; a new world has been made
We fought and made up, foundations were laid
Similarities and differences, to love and to tolerate

And then it was also, to be on my own,
Live the fantasy, with which I had grown
It wasn’t easy I must say; the journey seemed long
However, with all the support, I managed to trot along

Looking back, it appears to be a phase in passing
Making way for the fresh, verve and long lasting
We proceed to be back, to the city aborigine,
Whose faces I’ve known, smiling or crying

The drives, the fun, my kin and my life
To experience it all over again, to reunify
Promises waiting to unfold, optimism rife
After these 2 years that went by, on the roller-coaster ride!
