Ephraim Nkunika Poet I do not know?

Amphibious

I never thought this is a tale
I could ever tell
My heart was tossed and turned,
Printed on cards
Some played with it,
My feelings pawns 
On a chess board
Till you, my sailor
Said all aboard 

Sway, sway
Through icebergs
Till we reached 
Where we never thought 
We could reach 
The beach
You took off your sailor’s hat
Ready to hike
I guess we are amphibious like that
