YET I C her smiling at the sunshine
when my heart quakes she will drown
drown to be taken away by the waves
to be meat for these swimming strings
wow, its beautiful!, she said
reading her lips from afar
my love! i screamed
so loud the sea shook
So terribly
hear it come!
the rhythm of the waves goes beyond the
ears
its roars and lashes are higher than the
stars
even the fishes: small and large,
open to bite and swallow.
the storms might rage and rains may
fall,
yet my soul will ride on the seas for a rescue
of my fears till ma soul is at peace.
Will they taste of her sap before i say
i do?
i
fear little, only her hurt
but more, her company in the hands of
these uncircumcised breed.
it moved me the more to scream the
loudest
i
wanted to bear the pain i see come ,
to die before she does
and if i do, my fear ..
if she survives
whose fingers will tease her honey
curves,
her sleepy eyes
which never stayed closed to her eye
lids
without kissing me good bye
i am blessed meeting you
have been very supportive
through thick and thin
i am glad to have met u
like the early morning dew before you awake
to fetch water from the wells and oases
you blessed my countenance fallen,
like you have always done
even when I was a stranger, now your
love
thank you.
yes it’s great to see your fear
yes greater when you tread it
hahaha, geez my sleepy eyes,
I have been drowned by fear
the perfect fear that it will not come
out well.
but never killed my eager soul which
loved her
and never wanted her there...
when my eyes got opened and realized it was a dream
on ma creased bed alone
like dreams which come alive,
not in doubt and fears
and in words,
not like eternity, which is all that
matters.
Like dreams which stay in whole as solid
as a wall
and whisk you away to the land of bliss
where modesty and shyness are forgotten,
there one sees words sweeping you off your
feet
while I remain hanging in the valley of
no return
and i will meet the stars
with which to shake hands for how far
they have brought me,
closer to my bloody moon;
to hug the fading sun
though my full hands could not go around
her slippery waist
and not even wipe off her oozing sweat
off her opened pores.
these results of things we did and not
realize
after throwing away freely our shield
and guard
of things which we never imagined
because we were dazed and drunk
in the midst of all these words
she spoke to us and of us.
i said no more because she read my mind
i allowed my mind to do the talk
and my fingers to do the follow ups
my eyes proclaimed it all with unfailing
blinks of kindness
and appreciation as her responds.
as those great minds met in the skies to
commit themselves,
a spectacular bond was spat and out of
it, there in came a child.
This child, like one born out of love and
joy.
Thus, the child of the skies was
begotten
on this pedestal we came again
to dance again, sing again
as we trace the echo, picture those
pretty feet that held her high
up so high lest the earth swallows not
her
her little finger i grabbed very
delicate to behold
this new gift of the gods
this unfair earth only to see but touch
not
definitely like the rays which breaks
the thick dawn
into thin reflections revealing the
snares and traps
cheers to this piece of work no critic could
judge
but alas like the sayer in her silky
white robes
spreading his cowries to tell an untold
story of old
which never ended that started
from a glance, a whisper, a lisping speech,
then to words audible
only the listening eyes and the looking
ears of two
this to experience
first to taste
before the crowd
the town folks
then the whole earth into the beyond.
unspoken words yet said into my ears
and hardly I show signs to listen.
Cosmic forces concentrated at their peak
For that heart which beats like a virgin
drum
Played by the touch of one like the gods
Carved from the virgin woods of the
unseen
then did they, this work my ears and
eyes knew not
but for a witness of the untold story
i longed i had met it long long ago
long before my first cry was heard
i will put the most beautiful flowers no
eyes have seen
in your hair which blows gently with the
breeze
like waves on a desolate shore of a calm
sunny day
one feet said to the other
that cry which awoke the sleeping
spirits of the elders
and caused that sun to shine on them,
they that have cried for long
one,
i will comb your yellow hair till it
turns golden
as if that was not enough ,
the other
releasing their golden ore that could
have been gathered for centuries
as those miraculous rays fell on it to
adorn
strands of golden hair fell from the
sky,
they shined as rays that light the
darkest parts of the lands at dawn
that all men fell in love who have denied
their wives
and have even built fortresses to
safeguard them
those hands that held her high will not
tire
for such a love which odas has envied
for she shielded herself from the rest
because she never wanted to share.
in her eyes were crimson dots of
jealousy
like the goddess of wrath and fire
and will not fear when it gets darker
even if all of the heavens will let lose
their sneeze
nor sound the trumpet of thunder
whose shake will precede their soundless
gun fires across the sky
in short splashes
splashes which go far,
into yonder lands and across the oceans
and bring the fishes to the surface to
see the whole world
to ward off all for herself
her jealousy climbing to the sky
which envied the fishes too who followed
night and day
on the surface, the golden sea to swim
and colour themselves in their golden
insignia.
till the end of time will dawn,
when the veil will be uncovered
when the world will see her smile
to paint well the orange of the rainbow
which she wears around her wrists
that shone from those feet whose hands
those strands fell from their lofty height
you are the best my love,
he said
i love you
she said
and like what we've borne today
i wish i could fall in love again
with one in whom there is light and
sunshine.
with her who will throw her laughter in
the skies
in exchange for some warmth,
itching for a love which all should seek
she is right here with me awake
but afar and asleep
hahaha
her distance is not but length and
thousands of roads untravelled
but misunderstanding, disagreements
which leads not to agreement
and for her love will I tread it
patiently and majestically
minding not the time but at my leisure
so i forget not the little events which
captured the eyes with a great hope
inspired by her character,
her good old days.
i know i will get there
someday, somehow
even if not in this life
I know I will get there.
though this life might I see but beyond
where I am willing to journey for our
sake,
and for gains forever more
though i wish my tongue and hands
could have done what they were made for
rather than in their holes and by my
side.
though not on the same bed we lay
yet felt I your pulse and heard your
breath
though i will soon leave you r sight
will I still dream away, long when awake
from my deep dream of peace
along the deep depths of noisy waters
oh! that flag will they wave before her
and behind her
to announce her presence
to bid her farewell
for a return always told
a return to the surface though lives
within them
in their minds and hearts
of a return which will tell a story
long hidden of that damsel
who always was like a wave in the ocean
a hurricane like Irene on the sandy
coast
and like the pulse will surface its beat
to encourage, cheer, direct, guide,
guard, love mankind
bridging the gap between them and their
father
and make his earth a paradise again
like where they lived .
in Eden, even in the wilderness
those he called his people who disobeyed
him.
