I'M In Pain

You waved goodbye with a smile, I couldn't argue because it was at the hour of the night. But I heard the screeching of birds, Still I couldn't sense its message, it was too parabolic. Would you wake up, I'm calling your phone. The sun is up, It kissed my cheeks but I missed your hug on my chest. Can't you just get up and say hi to mom? Please God, can I share a bit of my breath? I need some seconds to talk to Mr Death. Our memories will never fade They say death is an obligation, Who are we to blame? I miss you, who'll play with me the football games? I wish I could stop the tears but pretence I can't make cause; "I'M IN PAIN" Poet Olajire Damilola Muyideen (SmilingPen) Right Reserved
