Poem Title:
Poem
I was flattered by the letter Mailed by this august sister I was lured by those beautiful flowers She sent to me in summer Soon I welcomed her idea Of renting a new apartment I blindly fall in love Within a sinister engagement I loved her when she grin May be that's not a spell I loved her to her toes The meaning, I couldn't tell She succeeded luring me far And we both lived as one Soon I noticed something Every night she loved being alone I was still madly in love And so I couldn't say no For love I reminded myself Is about Yes or No Many months of loneliness night In the mood still alone Until the next day we should see And she would stand on her own. And I would ask if she enjoyed her night And she would tell me she did And I would ask what about this night And she would say is yours indeed Three years of tolerance No 'Mummy' or 'daddy' called Of course, it was the same When no land was ever tilled Her beauty upon my face A charm that drew me near But she failed me when she resisted it For more than three years Families are there at home but I submitted to her brow And we eloped far away from our roots Now we landed north for more than a three And no harvest since seeds she denied us to root I can't face it any more There is a need to tour If she won't tell me her past Then I have to act fast I have to seize the day And strategize a new way Only her utterances will sway What will be the next day
