I once had an enchanting goddess Who painted my sores with honey Her name like the gush of many waters
My lover Ajuwaa When the sun rises at dawn I will remember your smile
Come, come my friend
Let me tell you a story Of how mother-earth turned a gift I treasured into dust
How I now wander aimlessly in my dreams How I now let my tears flow freely down my cheeks so they create a dent in her memory Come my friend!
Evil roamed the night The wind was merciless The udara tree had fallen So did your eyes—Till eternity
You departed without warning Without a second thought And I wonder if you did not think of me Death's but a cruel tyrant
Ajuwaa ! This betrayal is a kind beyond pardon You promised we would always be together I took your word And registered it in the journal of my heart
Oh lords of the grave! Tell Ajuwaa I'd be waiting Tell her I never stopped writing her name in the sands Tell her that like broken figurine I have been shattered to fine matter
They come in different colours, sizes and shape But it's you my love i'd be waiting on Till we meet to part no more ↑
Adieu Ajuwaa...
So touching @sikan-eyen

Well that certainly puts a dent in my poem about old forgotten shoes. The story of loss a sad one. It eventually enters every life that dares to love. 😢
