My Prison Poem by Abubakar Aliyu

My Prison



I told my self Loneliness is a strength,
At least I can control who hurts me,
Spacious cwtching hole in my heart,
Husky courage needed for me to delineate,
The emptiness, desolation... or yes destitution,
Which Wouldn't let me be at peace.

Yes I want to love and more be loved
For long I excogitate to coalesce,
With someone who deserve me,
Or At I least deserves her,
But yet my fear is people's perfidy,

Beautiful Face ugly mind,
My paranoia kept me captive,
Of my own arid dungeon,
With No one in it,
Not even a mouse for guard,
How can I be free?
Who is coming for me?
