Tears Of Love
Martin Ijir
The starry night where stars sparkled with endless mercy, frail my soul to the edge of time, as I stare at her rippling smile I was lost with words to utter. Her lips shines with adorning flowers as I sauntered closer, more intentional failure drum in my eyes. The eye-sighting was akin to the first moon, her miniature glory like Ramadan fasting, I walk closer with a still smile, an emoticons of love-play resurrects as a full moon, I am yours for you to love I say. She stares with aptness surprise as if waiting for me to confide in her, as I tell her the words she expect to hear. I have my knees down for you with love, marry me I say as tears of love rolled from our eyes.
