The Poem Tosyn Bucknor Wrote Before Her Death by lacemose(m): 5:49am On Nov 21, 2018
The poem of the OAP, Tosyn Buknor who passed away on Monday surfaces online, this was shared by Annie Idibia as she was regretting her loss, The poem reads

"I look into the future and see me cease

I feel no fear, my face won't even cease

My steps on this earth, a testament to life

Leaving this place filled with strife

Don't cry for me, shed tears for yourself

For each date you acquire gives you a little less.



Now I know why I live the way I do

Any why my mistakes, no second look

If i live my life according to their pace

What's my price in life's meaningless race?

Too much odds stacked against this fierce soul

So each hour, all I do is attain my goals



Spent alot of days searching for purpose

Then I put my thoughts into poetry and prose

This is why I was put in this world

Be a voice, Put emotions in words

For every tear I shed and times my eye smiled,

Someone will have known every option I tried.



This cowardly heart felt fear not death

Prize I've earned since my birth

My vow to leave a lasting voice after I was

Find a loyal number to keep fighting my cause

Here lies she who lived short but well

No regrets for her, but all her story tell".

Beautiful piece.! Even if it's a poem intentionally written for the sole purpose of a moment she knows will eventually come.


Sadly, all that is left of her are memories.
RIP Bucknor.

Rest in peace Bucknor. Of course every lagosian that listened to you will surely miss your lovely voice.

I can't rule out a case of suicide, if she knew in her own words "she'd live short and well."

Sickle cell anemia ain't d end and if she got to 37 and decided to quit, I can understand...

But I have seen people with it live above 50yrs and healthy.

The pains associated with crisis periods can be excruciating and insane.

People with SCA are usually strong and resilient. The torture they go through make the ones who pull through and live longer

successful persons.

She was suffering from depression... Her death should be investigated, I suspect suicide.

We all die someday
Only few are alive.
Sleep on Mrs Bucknor.

Reminds me of John Donne..
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee....

Please singles, don't ever marry out of pity or emotions.

Until we criminalize marriage between two AS or between AS and SS, talents like this beautiful soul would continue to be cut short.

If you go ahead and marry each other, it's not Love, it's selfishness.

Rip.

So touching.
