Mustapha Mohammed Poet Light Verse

When Its Time To Let Go

Seek not please that fool to stay
To grieve your soul thats light and gay
So short is life and breath and day
So swift a life can fleet away.

So waste not time in love's pursuit
When ceased is love and joy is mute.
Silly a fool don't worth your charms
To bask within your loving arms.

Though hard you try to hide this day
The raging love that has slipped away.
For day to day you've prayed to die
When your heart and your eyes unite to cry.

You've searched the stars for love so true
But all along, its right in front of you.,
