Poem Title:
Poem
My love do you remember when we met? At the Rubandikarya corner near the gigantic cypress tree, An old sport known for romance, Where lovers used to meet evening hours? And they would do their romantic chanting? That was the epitome of our dates. My Love do you remember the letters we used to send each other? The letters we could scribble on dirty papers, Because our parents complained of how books were expensive, Though the spellings used to confuse our thoughts, But our hearts would understand the lines and smile, Then the funny images of us we would draw at the end of the letter, Though they looked funny but symbolized our true love. My Love do you remember the crazy games we used to play? Hide and seek, kalongolongo, baba na mama etc. They made us look stronger in our love than today, They made us smile even when tears were forcing their way into our love, They made us see love not as the world sees it today, They made us be called love drunkards. My Love, that love, where has it gone? That love that every one used to gossip about, That love that made us be called idiots, That love that made us nicknamed Romeo and Juliet, That love that wiped off our tears when pain sprouted, That love that made even dogs be jealous of us, It’s that love that I need. My Love I need the love we had before evolution, The love that always overlooked the boundaries, The love that never hid behind shame of nature, Love that never used to shout in public, But would whisper into our ears soft music, That glued our hearts together. That love that carried us within the harsh whispers of the wind, Moved us through the claws of the storm, Shielded us from the terror of darkness, Sheltered us from the tears of the sky, Gave us a shade when the sun scorched, That love my Love, is all I need. My Love, that love they call old school love, Is the love that will prosper us, It’s the love that will crown us amongst mighty Kings, It’s the Love that will raise us above the turmoil of the world, Pass us through the devils traps, And set us on our predestined throne of Eternal Joy. Old School Love!
