The Love of My Life

The Love of my life

Before now,Love is a dead and forgotten issue,
which had clog my blood and other tissue,
If love falls down heavily as rain,
I doubt whether I can love again.

You came into my life to remove this fear,
which has long stuck to my pinna ear,
For long I have been waiting on fate,
This came accelerating at a faster rate.

My love for you is right from genesis,
when I was stranded in arid oasis,
Your exemplary character is something to cherish,
Which made my business ventures to flourish.

Your absence is like a soup without thyme,
which will make my life to be without rhyme,
Your confident looks and smiles bring pleasure,
when I thought of them at my leisure.
