THE TALE OF A BROKEN STANLEY- MY FIRST HEART QUAKE

in #poetry6 years ago

Among the colors of the Rainbow in my heart
Red was the color that popped out.
So outstanding as I couldn't hold it back.
I saw the Green traffic light and it says go,
Hurriedly my heart ran even faster than Usain Bolt.
Little wonder, if cheetah could keep up with that pace.
Sweat it out, my heart beats like a drum.
Oh Gosh! I am in love.
With a lady I met online,
Everything about her was overwhelming.
My instinct tells me, she is the one.
Had dreams of kissing her even before I let her say a word,
I guess I am the Martin Luther King of Love.
With the rise of the sun,
I took out my cell
Reach out this mermaid from another dimension of existence.
Angels like her should be in Heaven,
Guess she escaped because of me.


Hello I said, I got some words to sell but its gonna cost your heart to buy.
Words are free, and talking is cheap as I selectively and carefully picked the right ones.
We bargained for weeks and finally she gave in to my price.
I wasn't a bad marketer after all.
We started on the playground of emotion as the feelings grow stronger.
With the strength of it, It could take out Anthony Joshua with one blow.
Merrily! Merrily! I sing in my heart.
Is true they say, love is beautiful.
Only those who knows love can see it.
We always had a good time,
Promises were made.


Then came the moment of test
It was the year 2009,
Relationship was just 7 months old
What do I know about part aside what my heart and mind tells me.
University came calling, she answered first,
I was kept in waiting, hopefully the following year mine will be answered.
At the early stage, it seems she never left.
Calls and text was constant just as the stability of Electricity in Europe.
The thought of total black-out never came to mind.
Baby She said, Can I borrow your time at midnight.
Yes, I hurriedly replied.
Hard to see people reject money so why decline my baby's request.
Moment of reckoning came,
I smiled as if, I was made the manager of Chevron oil.
She told me, the main pipe was vandalized.
I was like how was that possible.
The flow only stopped few days ago,
She said it was reason best known to her heart.
There came masculine voice from behind,
I didn't ask cos the T.V can be that loud.
The wave washed away her feeling and swept her to a new island.
I just lost my ship as the Captain cos a better one came along.
And I was just informed.
Hahahahahaha, I laughed so loud.
This joke is quite funny,
I only saw the reality days later as there was total decay.
I blamed it on distance.
The President had no backup from the military thus why Mugabi was even Overthrown.
No single shot was fired but this bullet of heart break pierced my heart.
I cried for love, begged the jailer for freedom for crime I didn't commit.
My instinct failed me after all.
I was left to swim in grief,
Broken heart and Broken trust, Love hates me.
Such is life.
So I tell the Tale of a Broken Stanley

Great peom bro, I always feel it's very difficult to come up with a poem with many stanzas like this. So thumbs up for this but I feel it needed at least an introduction though 😉😉✌

I felt like crying reading through your poem. So sad the way it ended. Don't worry, love will find you again. Just hold on and hang in there.

I love your choice of words and comparisons. Keep the ink flowing.
