What About Love Songs? Poem by Owoeye Taiwo Bisola

What About Love Songs?

I try to let go of your hands and unbind the bracelets of lust,
But my palms gets clammy with my sweats and your crocodile tears,
I get all self-absorbed in my own puddle of a painful loveless life,
Are all love songs flawed with flakes of fallacies floating in them?

I try to voice my goodbyes and turn my back to your betrayals,
But my heart got in the way and I couldn't give up on our love,
I get all mushy whenever I stare into your dripping eyes,
Are my love poems not enough to win your heart back to me?
