Strangers As Lovers

STRANGERS AS LOVERS She became strange as a stranger in a lovers boat As the wind puffs power and gets stronger Their relationship gets weaker She finds fault in everything he does She picks quarrel at every slightest opening Yet the wind marches on with a vigor That mirrors the minds of the disturbed They hardly speak to each other again They now opt for strange smiles Over mind-bugging issues He saw it coming from above He questioned and queried the strangeness Still lost, wandering and pondering in his thoughts It all ran fast like a hare Faster then they could ever dream of Alter solemnization promise this varnishes Prophecies of unparallel compatibility And perfect matching wanes. Why will he wait for seven years before she let go? Why now, two months to end her tutelage Why did she throw her rectitude of years in murky water? Why did she stab with impunity all they’ve lived for? Alayande Stephen T. 3.56am 19th May, 2007
