A Remedial of Love
A Remedial of Love
When silence carved its name in stone,
And hearts grew cold where warmth had shone,
A whisper rose from broken ground—
A balm in words, a gentler sound.
It wasn't grand, nor made for show,
Just steady light in afterglow.
In kindness slow and patience deep,
Love woke again from tangled sleep.
So let it mend in quiet grace,
In every scar, a sacred place.
Not perfect, no—but strong enough:
The remedy is tender love.
-Otieno Elvis Gikoi
