The Pain of Losing a Friend

I call him
I feel pain

I read him
I feel pain

He ignores me
I feel pain

He responds
I feel pain

He laughs
I cry

He cries
I cry

About

My name is Martha Namirembe. I was born in Uganda but spent my childhood in Kenya from 1976 to 1988. I went to Maryhill High School, Mbarara; Tororo Girls School; Progressive Secondary School, Bweyogerere; and the former Institute of Teacher Education, Kyambogo, where I obtained a diploma in Secretarial Science. I have been working as an office secretary at one of the public universities in Uganda since June 2012. My first job was at a theological school from April 1999 to May 2010. I love to read and write short stories. I had a column in one of the Ugandan magazines from December 2010 to May 2011 where I wrote short stories from my adult life as ‘Samali.’ I have a podcast and YouTube channel named “Growing up with Teacher Parents” where I share stories from my childhood and adult life.
