The Eve Poem by Blessing Ekpe

She is the missing rib that left his side hollow

She is his love and light

she was taken out of him

she is his attraction

she is the softer side of him

she is tenderness and those emotions he couldn't share

she is the tears that would not fall

she is the passion he didn't allow himself to feel

she is the trembling compassion that he could never express

when he makes love to her, he is actually embracing the softer side of himself.


she is Eve

she is created a woman!

she is the fragrance in his atmosphere.

she is the soul of his home

she is the heart of the marriage

she is the hope of the children

she is the life support of her lover, her husband, her Man!
