The Naked Truth Poem by Sulaiman Mohd Yusof

The Naked Truth

Rating: 4.2


Have you ever wondered?
Why the Sun sets, from the east?
It’s the sign, where I leave my heart,
For the Sun to relay it to you,
In the west
Ad nauseam, the night is where
I leave my eyes to capture you
Like a Lapis Lazuli
You shine the brightest
Amongst the stars

On Earth
I’d be the Botanist
You’re the Campanula
And Knapweed
Fecundating, I grow you
To be closer
To me
You seem very buxom


I’m not here to adjudicate
You’re ineffable
I’ve become the malapropism
I want you
Like the river needs
The ocean
Like the moon needs
The night
We’re conjoined twins

I take my hat off for you my brother, long time! I am speechless with this impressive masterpiece. Very simple and at the same time, very deep! This is a very catchy title. I also wrote a poem titled: A NAKED TRUTH, a different interpretation on the same subject. My brother, keep inspiring the World with your thought provoking writes! 10+++ Well deserved! Love and Peace for always!

An unusual love poem indeed...old souls having found the other. Why is a sunrise necessary...you have her eyes. Why is a sunset necessary...the darkness is made Light with your love. This poem speaks many things, and that is what a good poem does.xxxElys
