Everytime i stare at the mirror
Admiring my own image
You pop on my mind
Imagining magically a day
Will come that
The mirror will
not only reflect my image
But also your tall dark
Figure on the door.

I just can't seem to ever let
You go
I feel like a soldiers wife awaiting the husbands return from cold war.

The many times
You stubbed my
Trust and thrusted it
In a drift
I promised to remain
Hopeful
But now only is when
The back stops with me
Before i turn to be a monster
Lemme walk away
I love too much

Am afraid to look at the mirror
And claim "I LOVE YOU"
Coz i'd only be lying to
You.
Love is a complicated science that my medulla can't even process

I try to conjure up
Memories and keep up with days
Moments i failed to be supportive
Tend to your greatness
Nor accommodate your hard work
My pride ripped up open
To disappointments of my absenteeism.
So when you listen to my playlist
And note ghost and dullness
Its me punishing my blindness
And dumbness which eventually
Broke you in alternates
The sorrow you see tattooed in me
Equated my over bearing pain lostness
When you passed out after getting wet
Under the romantic kisses
In heavy rains to late replies of
"Hi babe sorry got home safe and sound
Just from a power nap*"
The piano your safe space where
I only read confidence and magic
Now a bank of heaviness released
In tunes of sad melodies
Shadow of your wings.
Over time i should have healed hence moved
But am human enough to punish my
Desires to contemplate on what was amiss
Like a federal case lawyer
I will chase down the trail of this case
Till all the burgeoning yet pending
Fawls get behind bars.
Enough damage has been caused
Now we face the recompanse of our actions.
Am sorry babe.
The scales in my eyes
Now shaded i see everything clearly.
If not today tomorrow or ever
I ask you to follow the path of virtue and heart coz it was never wrong.
I have only one life left to get you back...now let grace speak for me.

A Fool For Life.
@niamornimo
She loved him
Clearly it was as
Days  turned to months
Then years but her heart
Still held down the love she felt deeply
The moments and memories they shared together
Repeatedly played out to be written into
Her bones to never forget as long as she had breath in her
She knew one day
She will have to leave and
Afterwards her world would wither and die
She needed the few shared moments to
Survive  a barren world without him.
One-sided love is beautiful when accepted and embraced. Becomes less burdening but motivation

Its always a go ahead
Matters freedom
But to me its more of
Willingly taking oneself
Into captivity to breathe.
My love for sports
Has me running around
With my problems
Waiting to score through
Healing but the scouts
On the sidelines
Are offering first pain than aid.
With my shot foot
I limp on
Looking forward to a goal
As the rot on unattended wound
Starts to rick .
Guess my goal will
Be getting checked and medicated
In the hospital coz
The pain killers don't heal
Brokenness.
Forgiveness starts by me
