Remember Me - Tribute To a Friend

Remember me my friends, when the trees bask with delights when the waves whack the rock when the fair weather whispers. Then know am close and I need a touch Remember me my foe The stainless pathway of our duel the ravaging rift of our skin the cries of each blooded strikes when the deep ancient scars nipped Then know this my foe That am close by and I need to strike Remember me now When the corona strikes the amazons As the Halloween nights of lust Where all spasms are expelled Like a vintage tornado rocket With a wild cry of exoticism Shrilled with a chilly blast Then know this now That am the next bang Remember me always When the birds bask on trees, the wagtail screw for hideout, like when whirlpool whirls as the wader wades the mud like a dancing night ecstasy then know am close and I need a mate Remember me often times When the waves rip its lungs When the breeze whispers eastwards When the cockerel clown its crown as she announces the morning post, Remember me always Oh my memories Oh my victories Oh my footed armies of duels My believes untapped My hopes unleashed My lust exorcised My greed farced My shame eclipsed among the stars And my humility nailed to oblivion. Remember me again. My love that floats the bud My hate that holds the hades My dreams that torment me My grief that frill my final abode My pains that sprout my exits My cries that echoes to abyss Remember me for ever My hands that grief with sadness Unleashed your paw, frittered me with your pegs, defiled my defenseless dune, snatch my unborn from the cradle erase the face of my returns close the torches of my paths. That my breathless veins rise no more But remember My flights now My battles My pains My fears Remember my goodbyes, then I live again. Written by Benny Isibor
