A Letter To Ana

A Letter to 
My Ana:

I lay my 
heart 
before 
your altar 
this day
Use it a 
sacrificial 
token to 
bedwet 
your 
imagination
Take this 
pieces of 
my 
emptiness 
as an 
unbriddled 
bread 
baked in 
sorrows
Forgive my 
righteous 
mind of 
the 
unspoken 
sin
I cheated 
and 
betrayed 
the santity 
of our bed
I lay with 
that scarlet 
lady late in 
the dark
I dangled 
my 
stupidty in 
her 
bossom
Dancing 
between 
her thighs
Fooling my 
ego in her 
temple
Tilling my 
tails 
inbetween 
her 
arrogant 
moves
I lost my 
rationality 
for a 
pleasure
Now i 
journey on 
a highway 
to the 
grave
I did it 
when the 
lamps 
were mute 
and the 
lanterns 
wicks gone
My 
righteous 
heart 
drowns in 
guilt
Insomania 
betrays my 
eyes
Please,  
Take this 
dying 
heart as a 
token,
Breath 
afresh on 
it that my 
soul may 
gain rest 
and 
pardon in 
the 
beyond...
Tell my 
unborn 
child that 
am gone 
to 
nowhere...


Awoh 
Kingsley
*well the 
above 
piece is a 
fiction...just 
my heart 
playing 
round my 
poetry 
mind.
