TEARS OF PAIN; POEM BY RAJABU MPELLA

TEARS OF PAIN

When the flowers shines

And they make a beautiful view in my eyes

But still you are the one to make me see so

And when water flows

Sounds well in my ears and makes me feels someone else

But still you are the one to make me feel so

When I walk alone alongside a river

I find myself alone

Tears come and pass

And you are the one to wipe them

But you are no longer on my side

Where is your loyalty you had.

The pains I endure

Isn’t because I miss your kiss

Isn’t because I miss your hug

It’s because I can no longer proud am yours

It’s because our heart are now apart,

Who stole your sympathetic mouth?

Which used to console me in weeping,

Your gentle eyes used to stare at my face with smile

Where are they?

When the sun shine

And bright ices start to melt

And the morning mist lower down from the leaves,

It makes me remember our fantastic moments we had together

And our precious love that start to melt like ice after sunrise,

Let not our bond vanish so easily

I feel so uneasy whenever I retrieve a memory of our past deeds

Our hearts are apart

And am weaker enough to get them together again,

But you are the one.

Don’t abandon my soul

And leave me in life of solitude.
