Poem of the day : I thought i had you by Gideon Nwaikwu

------I thought i had you

Image by Lexonart

:;

i thought i had you.
Winged enchanting creature ,
I sadly never knew. ,,
It was a facade picture. ,

:;

,
Cold ash of a smoldered flame.,
You seemed now in my palms.,
Slipping slowly through my hands.
within  each tighter clasp.,

:;

Finest face and finer smiles.,
Were golden dimples dwell..,
With skin of surple that truely spell.,
The rage of afric' sun!

:;

I thought i had you. ,
You were my favorite woe.,,
Like flirty bird you flapped and flew.,
To greener tree i know!

:;

Fair things with wings don't  last or stay.,
they fleet like flimsy dreams
And paste sad goodbyes on the sky. ,
And fade to lovelier realms

:;

I thought i had you.,
When smiles alone spoke in  tongues of love. ,
Your giggles were so true. ,,
That the evening moon will crawl so low .,
To join our evening idlings by the hill.

:;

a thousand questions ,sweet things ask.,
of why i should let  you  go,
i shake my  head in dying dream
why sweet things loved you soo.,

:;

But i had you once!  Or.,
I thought i had you.,
And cherished you a thousand times before..,
The birth of  morning dew.

:;

But i wish like i never wished afor .,
That matimas wind should sweep  apart.,
The things that binds us more. ,
And Quench  the facile sweetness of  my heart. ,

:;

I thought i had you,
But now with a loosen grip.,
I never knew,  i never knew,
'Twas a forlorn trip!   

:;

You are the burning desert dust! 
You are the shivering sea sand!
Hot tears of tattered trust!
Is shed upon the ground!

:;
Because i thought i once  had you .,
But now adieu!  adieu!
