Beyond Relationship. By Izunna Okafor by IzunnaOkafor(m) : 6:11 pm |
Where lies the end
Smoothly and roughly it flows The end of which is bend How vast the pain it glows It's humbly aglow with joy As the two embrace the novelty What the world cannot destroy Expressed in bed with rose of honesty Phone becomes a handbag Always a vogue for the neophyte With less remorse for last card And ever prepared for goodnight How long can that last After what becomes the next The lady becomes a bush rat Always in search for a smooth nest Some ladies are left afloat Timeless till old But bewildered as goat What a homeless as owl Who then becomes a foam As the muted ones are more silenced And the pretty ones have now eloped Beyond the ring now appears a fence Annihilation of number What a speedy deletion Who can see beyond the matter A recourse bemoaned amidst retention Beyond the rosary bed The vision is meant for future He who grasps the blend Is quick to make forfeiture © Izunna I.
