She Has Gone Poem by Tosin Adesokan

The last time I checked, she has gone
Her words then, weren't real
Her smiles then, were all fake
But I valued them because they built worlds
When I finally saw her, she has gone


At her favorite place
Under an empty roof, alone in a room
She is no more there, when I checked
Her sweet lies, beautiful tears have all gone with her
The last time I saw her was in my dream


She called me and flew away
Like dust, blown away by wind
The book she gave me to read is of fiction
Full of imaginary memories
The rainbow she told me to look is colourless
She appeared to me again but in my dream



She has really gone
With those nonentity promises
The photograph she left, Imageless
Her songs, voiceless
But I saw her calling on me in my dream


She has gone probably
She is coming back certainly
Because she promised me in my dream
The last time I saw her was in my dream
She has really gone
