Olabosoye Wemimo Olaoluwa Poet Quatrain

Horrific Desert

We were once a long term very close friend, 
Until someone else opinion finds way.
Like twilight, my sun and your moon did blend...
Then, it seems far away to meet you gay.

             The prize none ever seek to win,
              One eventually took to heart...
              Broken hearts see no dreary sin,
              To how distance grew us apart...

I could fly your flag without fear in mind
To what my household would think of my head,
But when each gets to hold on to her kind...
Then, each drop of our bleeding sweat turns red.

              For days I did forget my dreams,
             And have been praying; peace be still;
            All our water flows BLOODY STREAMS...
            But can't watch others die at will.

Those of reckon to put a stop at ease,
Are enjoying the fearless game for fun...
And when tears ain't enough to bring down tease, 
We resolve to which way the game be won. 

            Armies are weary, lying dead, 
            But no one to treat them off hell. 
           Then, I lay head in mournful tread, 
            That the world; one day, shall be well.
