Shalewa Poem by umoh cyril

my dear beautiful shalewa,
everybody knows you are finer,
but i know you are lovelier,
my love for you is mightier,
than that of my mother,

my love for you is at first sight,
because you alone shine's bryt,
and that brightnes has might,
more than the rays of light,
even when you smile at night,


i love you i know i always do,
my heart always beats for you,
everything i do i do it for you,
and you know how much i do,
that i'll leap senselessly for you,


even when time comes to end,
or when age can't be mend,
even when your heart blend,
with mine to know no end,
i'll love you, and it will not end,


your love made me speechless,
your love made me spineless,
your love made me senseless,
you will always be my empress,
and that saved my loneliness,


we took the vow of our love,
you promised to love me more,
and that i will never lack love,
even when i need loves horn,
you said you'd show me more,


so my dear shalewa xala,
just trust me and know that,
i will always love you not her,
i'll bleed for you not her,
and die for you before her.
