Abdulhafeez Oyewole Poet Free verse

Doubtless

I Know

If I should abandon myself
In the seed of your heart,
I know, I would germinate.
If I should cry
In the lines of your palms,
I know, you would dry my tears.
If I should confide myself
In the sea of your love,
I know, I would not drown.
If I should lose my sight
In your brighter light,
I know, I would go no blind.
If I should lose my tongue
In the preaching of your course,
I know, you would not let me down.
If I should lose my hands
In your forever fullness,
I know, I would not be wretched.
If I should abandon myself
In the beauty of your mind,
I know, I would not regret.
If I should forget myself
In the caressing of your soul,
I know, my life would not be the same.
If I should take the bold step
And scale through those narrow paths to you
I know I would be victorious

Dean Maloloyon July 8, 2013 at 7:30 PM i like this one, but I feel it would be unfair to you (as we readers) to put the punctuation marks,for I know we can not give justice for a well crafted poem as this.This is a powerful poem no doubt. and personally I would like to read it with your intended punctuation marks.that would complete the pleasure of reading this. nicely done.that's just a simple request as a friend AO, happy writing Abdulhafeez Oyewole July 11, 2013 at 9:36 AM I will punctuate it as requested by you. Thanks for the visit.
