MATIMBA HAPPY BALOYI Poet Free verse

My faraway love

Oh how I yearn yet words remain compacted 
within my chest, a heavy silence lies;
through tender touch, through gaze, our
souls aligned
in soft embrace, love whispers "never dies."

I've read the secrets written in your eyes 
I can't help but wonder if you've read my eyes
speak to me; let silence not disguise the love
we have for each other, the dreams we both believe

For days I've waited, longing for your voice
the sound that flutters my heart and brings me peace
if your voice could grace the air I breathe, I'd evermore rejoice
Oh my angel, with your melodic voice, heal this broken soul.

through distance, love took roots within my soul
hands can't reach you, yet my chest bust of good memories
