Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Lost In Thought

Lost in thought
    (agony of a soldier's wife) 
Loneliness like a dark gown
She wore in her mind set
Wondering if he will ever return home
As she sit with a dark cup of coffee
Stairing throw the window
Like he is close to home
Voice Echo's in the room
no one speak but her voice
As she marvel in sight
Not realising she speak just only to herself 
But To an unknown reality


Lost in thought
She keep waiting
Far away from her 
Was her love on a war front
Battleing to save an unknown curse
Like a battle of 
a do or die


Lost in thought
Like an unknown destination 
She perceive a tommorow never come true
On and on 
The media keep reviewing 
Casualties of dead soldiers 
 on a high scale
Morning after morning 
She weak up with a grief of the unknown 
Noon after noon
She launch with an astray 
Full of aches 
From smokes of thoughts
Lots of thoughts on her mind
While she waits


Lost in thought  
she miss her love dearly
When will he be home from 
War?
Was an answer 
she wish to know 


Lost in thought 
At midnight
With an heavy eyes
She sit close to an open door
Believing he might soon be home
Light after light 
Cigar after cigar
Like she sit watching the moon
Counting the stars with a wish
And wondering so deep
As she got 
Lost in thought.

Note before you set for war, think about those you leave behind, cos karma is part of nature, guess why war is evil, I rest my case
