Homecoming Poem by Jide Pounds Ibitoye

All the crickets trickles at night
dogs are barking vigorously for save keeping
wolves howling into space
making sure there are no ghost to scare
even some other insects lights up the night with little lights
listen carefully at nights calm
hear little sweet groans of lovers sport

I stare at the deep blue sky with little sparkles
reminding of the events in the night
I cannot help but sleep cold
and sometimes to dance the cold I sold

A Tsunami case to forget ones first finest
even all the disasters, there is a time you remember
the times of the first stanza
time that I find no arms to nest
The world waste all pours down in my head
I cant do but write illusions
hoping to forget lost lust and make it right
I had my letters,1st,2nd and 3rd
But they only stayed with me, they never got to her

I can now see her from far
brought closer to my eyes to lar
my heart knocks at my outer world

loved by some, hated by others
broken heart, now and then
clouds of tears converge in my eyes
that sometimes my eyes pour down rain

I've met many cat walkers
Some lovable, many proud, others selfish
but one does not cease to amaze me
she's is such a golden day, that she makes my heart float
another one made me know my weakness
A disaster only known to me, not kind of hard to solve
but me, am selfish
I hope am worth your type of treasure

It was true, the feeling
the adrenaline that pumped
converting into body shocks
and its result, ridges on skin
all this I felt from you
'even though I saw how beautiful your heart is
there were moment I was selfish
my desire never made me see coming days
days that our love became flashing light
it went out and never seem coming back again

I sort endlessly in lonely days
anxiety made me forget your golden being
I forgot them all
I forgot how happy we coupled
now I see you and I blame myself
the brain age brought you back cheaply
please let of suffer a little more
make me feel pain from my sore

We could have been perfect like tick thieves
be in the movies, I'll play Michael and you Dirty Diana
I'll be the freak and you everything
you know, our close love days were my best
even though chased like putting duty close to our chest

My ego is yet unruled, and I stole form Shakespare
'You to your beauteous blessings add me a curse
being find on praise, which makes my praise worse'
Walk on gold treasures on your Homecoming
