Motherhood - Abiyamo

Abiyamo

Infinity 

 

 

He had gone too far
Now she is gone
He sighed

sat back in retrospect

drawing a sarcastic smile

dreading the lifetime scourge

life has saddled on him
He shrieks then moaned

the sounds piercing through him
despite all her pain
spending her own gain

now she is gone
She who unfaltering
fought the heavens

cried to the sun
pledged to the moon

pulled down the stars
tugged the winds
even forfeited to Olodumare

just to carve you a path

now with your feet

fitted with greatness

you stood in ignorant fury

to crush the now tender reed

Alas, the saddened cry
Abiyamo  ooo
