Wipe My Tears Poem by John Chizoba Vincent

Here stood the tears

waiting to be wipe

tears for Nancy

beloved pretty damsel

born with a silver spoon

in the house of symbols

as bright as the snow, she shone.

conquering the beauty of mermaids

men were entangled in her beauty



yet, death visited her in its scorching hands of pains.

a broken heart dwells around her domain

her dreams hung sorrowfully and her beauty howled

Nancy is gone with the winds

in the company of a total stranger

who shall wipe my tears in dry days?



i remembered those days we flew kite together

beside the moldy kitchen

And the wind danced along with us

the green grass sludge round our belly

in joy we chant the love rhymes

And on the eagles wings we sang beautifully

leaving our sorrow behind us.

we were in the hall of fame

until then, the heart broke down when diseases feasted on it



Now the sackcloth i wore detest me.

it blasphemed behind me,

in my bereaved to a gem.

i bawled and sprawled on the ground

but death seemed happy and blameless.

i will have her name written in the stars

in a second chance of my love to her.
