chidiebere franklin Poems

Mother,

I see you working hard,
To give us a better life,
...

I promise my devotion honest and true
I would give up life just for you

I am at times without words to say
...

I haven’t written a poem,
Since the last time I was hurt,
I haven’t written a poem,
Since my heart was ready to burst,
...

today a drummer boy told me you are falling in love with me
or was it your heart beating when I kissed the bosom of thee
it was the time when the Nox was at her young
and I was kissing you and its silence who sung
...

The fear of rejection was stopping me, but I don't have the time to waste
I'm past cloud 9 when I place my hands around your waist

I know lately things have been kind of crazy
...

You are the one I have known throughout the years.
Together sharing each others dreams hopes and fears.
You are the precious one that could have only come from above.
The more that I know you the more I must ask, could this be love?
...

To you I give the whole me
For I believe that you're my destiny
To you I offer every best of my heart
For I believe that you will value it
...

As I lay here in bed, I think of you.
I think of how everyone else’s
relationships are falling apart at the
seams and here we are.
...

What you mean to me:
You are the sun in the sky,
You are the light shining by,
You are the breeze in my hair,
...

Not a day goes by,
that I don't wish you know how much I love you.
Not a day goes by,
that I don't wish better for you.
...
