My hero left without a word of goodbye. You lived a life so gallant and flawless. You built bridges of gold in friendship. Had fields of golden corn in relationship. You ensured that everyone that crossed your path had a love story to tell. You believed,sincerely, in Christ and you shared the love of God. I read a post once were a friend eulogized his father and said he had a large shoe to fill. His Father's achievement I can't underestimate too, but then I smiled that day and said thank God we always lived to be 70 in our family. Hopefully, by then Adeniyi would have slowed down His pace to human level, even if he choose to leave first. Take a look at me now, do you see the empty space you left behind? Nobody is willing to try, because we are human & humbly understand the fact that you were an angel, not human.
In my years of living, nobody came close to being you in my life. True, there is no 2 of a kind, and you were the only senior I was blessed with. You were the only one who would wipe my tears and still keep my integrity intact. Right from childhood, you had the burden of listening, even if you had no time, until I was exhausted. Even until I became an adult,I threw it all on you. Had I know, it was a goodbye, I did have taken your last words to me serious and not say goodbye that day. You said I should outgrow some "ayooo" I said "ko Jo"
I used to marvel when you introduce me with Pride "this is my Sister" at one time you added "my pride" to your associate, I asked you about it at our last meeting, your answer still makes me smile. Right from childhood, you gave me a memory to tell with pride. Adeniyi mi owon, I miss you dearly
