Frozen Tears... Poem by Meshack Sewe

Dreams of my fertile morning…pregnant with rays of sunshine!
Drinking pains of joy… as a bedding soiled by lovers' spilt wine!
Dreams of a morning sun…peeping with a handmade smile!
Morning dews hiding…brightness sending darkness a mile
Alas! My morning arrives with showers of fears!
My awoken eyes blinded... by frozen tears!

Dreams of my teenage day…to google...to behold!
Showering in sweats…at each other we ogle…tight we hold
Dreams of a day-time journey…roller coaster of endless picnic!
Birds giggling...Butterflies dancing…no scents of panic!
Alas! My day arrives with razor-sharp shears!
My sun-lit candles…murdered by frozen tears!

Dreams of my adult-hood night…sensational as a Monte-Carlo circus!
Untying our nerves…blue-flamed visions melting our focus!
Dreams of night-long lyrics...passion-pitched melodies of an opera!
Stars blushing…..clouds stripping…bewitched by our steamy acapella!
Alas! My night arrives with blocked ears!
My kiss-ripe lips…..coated by frozen tears!

Ooh…dreams of my morning, my day…my night…
Feathering my wings for a love-plane flight
Dreams of us soaring above…partying in care-free clouds
Engines moaning…pilot dozing...hostesses nude in glass-clear shrouds!
Alas! My dreams arrive wounded by blood-fed spears!
My love- plane….crashed by frozen tears!

Ooh Poor dreams….whose waters burst my stream
Ooh channel-less stream…. whose depth made me scream
Ooh buried screams...whose sounds hugged dead ears…
Ooh frozen tears…whose meltingtook many years…
Yes! Passing years…whose days oiled my scars!
Yes! Proud scars…whose memories withered with time…
Ooh healer time... that tickled mytears to sublime…
