Eigbe Solomon Poems

Sixteen hours thinking of you,
Eight hours dreaming of you,
Your presence I feel all day,
Still I can't hold you,
...

Why will you give someone else, a smile so bright?
Why would you gaze into another man's eyes?
Why allow someone else wrap you in embrace?
Why should another arm encircle you?
...

I saw a man
With a face so calm
His words soft and sweet
Wears a smile as often as his eyeglass
...
