Beauty of Irony

when i look at you;a beautiful soul.
when i look at you i see fireworks
when i look at you i hear songs
when i look at your i hear moans

when i look at i hear angels
when i look at you i hear laughters
when i look at you i flip new 
chapters
when i look at you i see idle 
chatters

when i look at you i hear hausa 
music
when i look at you i see spanish 
music
when i look at you i hear partys 
peaking
when i look at you i think 
lovemaking
when i look at you i hear kids 
sooshing
when i look at you i see us ageing
when i look at you i get mixed 
feelings

when i look at and you look at me,
i know we are meant to be.
when i look at you and you look at 
me
i know we will never be.
when i look at you and you look at 
him
i see the beauty of irony.
most of all i learn a lesson;not to 
look at someone that looks at 
someone else.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
