Vyktor Ekott Poems

Did I hear you call my name?
I was listening, though I was stilled with shame
Was it real or just a game?
I’m confused, ‘cos things are no more the same.
...

A pleasant sound emerged from within
An infant’s cry, devoid of guilt and sin
With angels heralding it’s novel entry
Tender and soft from a fresh delivery.
...

How do I explain to you that I care?
How do I convince you to stay?
This game is meant for two to play
Without your love, I will surely go astray.
...

Will you love me as a friend?
To give me courage when there’s no hope
And make my life a glorious trend
Say ‘Yes’, please don’t say ‘No’.
...

When a guy is still single
He searches for a girl to mingle
If she acts tough and hard as shingle
He tries to sing her some jingles.
...

I will sing to the Lord a new song
It doesn’t matter if the verse is short or long
I don’t care if my notes are right or wrong
And it doesn’t matter the church or choir I belong.
...

Yes, my angel, I’m sorry I did you wrong
War songs replaced our once love song
Though we’d been together for years that long
I was the weak one, girl you were strong.
...

I never knew what was on your mind
When you told me to seek and I shall find
With your lips, you were so generous and kind
When our lips met, my physical became blind.
...

Slowly, she walked in looking confused
Praying and waiting for answers to be fused
She wasn’t scheming, she knew she was used
How did she ever allow herself to be abused?
...

Believe me, it’s not you, it’s him
He’s just a character in a ghoulish film
It was his scheme, it wasn’t your fault
Don’t give up, don’t put your life to a halt.
...
