Love Song

LOVE SONG
by Obinna Chilekezi
it has been a long silence in between  us

there’s been strain of laughter everywhere
but ours a suspended joy
and the world around a basket of love
come out my dear
let’s move along 
with world of love!
Not this grudge of yours
of the past , of this and of that
with its smears of  saffron
eating up you like an acidic matter
and you continue in this  horn on branches 
 leaning heavily on sadness
and bitterness


open up the window of your soul
we are that we work ourselves to be
