In Guise and Surprise, Dove Plumages

It's been a while I handled my humble muse like this. Here is a duet between Mfoniso Ubaha and Wems Henry Temmy MU I am fine. You smile with head up, saying; good. I chuckled, putting up a dirty smile And you call it beautiful. I said: okay, you believed it Without knowing how not okay I am. WHT You are mine. I travel miles with eyes closed, murmuring; food. I winks, seeing your falling smile... How fast it becomes artful. Oh yeah, hmm,the fall hits! And drive me lonely till you closed your arm. MU I am sick but hides it. I prefer my depression to you-- It is more real than you are. I put you out to avoid your s. I lied to you, you loved it, then you don't know I pretended for life, to live the life I live. I am a lier and you don't know. WHT I longed for thy lips glee that fits. As thy fainting pressure reads true. I may be seen to be afar... But my heart's hole measures feelings omitted For all the packages you filed won't go, Even when it dives; To relieve your painted feelings, it glows... MU I got a thick skin and an elastic heart. Your blunt barb can't sting me in. Your Poisons didn't reach my vessels... That my system was undisturbed. There I live undamaged. I survived stresses and strain ... I am unbreakable. WHT I embraced the tears tearing its limit apart; While the fear blocked the bin, That for peace, you grow unnoticed nestles Where the prolonged brace is well managed And the strives thrive though in pain. Yet, the cross for both becomes bearable. © ® Mfoniso Ubaha and Wems Henry Temmy
