YOUNG OBSERVER: THE LOVE THAT NEVER WASTuesday, March 24, 2009 Birds in the sky, lend me your ears Fishes in the sea, swim to the surface Heaven and earth, bear witness to this loss This is the love that never was If ever there were feelings so true If ever there was a thing between me and you If ever there was a love so pure Listen to me for I am sure That it is this love, this love that never was If ever there was a love built on solid foundations Of friendship and mutual affections If ever there was a love so strong and yet so hard Harder even than the chains of Amistad It is this love, this love that never was Don't tell me about Bonnie and Clyde, for they had nothing! Romeo and Juliet pale in comparison to this love This love that never was There would been no boundaries Only amazing possibilities Of sweet caresses, hugs and kisses Of planting kiss after kiss on every inch of her body Of making her laugh and her saying, "yow danga funny!" (laugh) I long for her to see The difference between perception and reality I long for her to see That she does deserve me I long for her to say "I do" Dare I ask the question: "will you?" She calls it a sacrifice..for what reason? It's just her sensitivity that has built this prison But we move on, we continue life's journey The love that never was? The love that will be? Time will tell and we shall see We move on, forward ever What will be will be We move on, backward never Que sera sera Author: By Njogou Francis Njie, Birmingham, UK | Media Actions See Also |
