I Live There No More Poem by G. Akanji Olaniyi

I Live There No More

Rating: 4.5


Learnt you came looking for me at the old address
I live there no more
Told you were in shabby dress
I wear tatters no more

Heard you wore a long face
I deal with sadness no more
Perceived you saw no trace
I deal with your type no more

Felt you, too, had moved on
I am rising up and higher
Suprised you chose to stay on
I am leaving them behind and jumping higher
