You hold me

in #nigeria8 years ago

You hold me!
You look me dead!
You no longer watch with excitement,
Rather empty gaze,
Your iris glows pain,
Lashes blinking every seconds,
You pant heavily these days,
Inhaling sharply,
You forget to reply pleasantries,
Forget to answer questions,
Forget to wave goodbyes,
Lost in thoughts,
Head bowed,
Legs dragging behind,
Tossing & turning at night,
You refuse to speak to anyone,
Including 'I' your darling,
You no longer acknowledge my presence,
Nor perform marital duties,
How do we make back what we lost?
It was never our undoing!
You hold me responsible for our dead boy!



I am @Illuminatus, I am a Nigerian and I am neither a terrorist, a scammer nor a spammer.


Several thanks to @rok-sivante for his generosity these past months.
