I Hope For 2nd Chance

Walking down the sea shores Gazing at wondrous God’s creation Amused by the noise made by waves And enjoying the spit by rolling waves I blinked twice for conviction I couldn’t believe my eyes The adage says “looks can be deceiving” Can the angel be evil? Your glittering chocolate skin And dripping diamonds all over your body Were too bright for my eyes to handle Your beauty is beyond immaculate For a moment I went blank and out of words Silenced by your perfect African beauty I thought such beauty exist only in fictions I wanted to complement but I tripped over my tongue Like your favorite book index I hope that my actions will guide you to the pages of my heart That discusses what is in store for you Only if we can meet again All my life I’ve been rehearsing Penning every word that describe you Hopping I’ll overcome my stammer I hope for a second chance with you
