Touching Tosyn Bucknor’s poem before her demise

November 21,2018
Share:

The world was thrown into mourning with the sad news of the demise of multi-talented On Air Personality, Tosyn Bucknor. Many have taken to social media space to write on how Tosyn impacted them positively and how she would be greatly missed.

Just before her demise,  Tosyn Bucknor aka Area  Mama wrote a poem that has already gone viral. In the poem, she talked about leaving the earth and not wanting people  to cry for her.

It 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 day you acquire gives you a little less

Now I know why I live the way I do

And 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 a lot of days searching for purpose

Then I put my thoughts in poetry and prose

This is whay I was put in this world

Be a voice, put emotions into words

For every tear I shared and times my eyes 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”
