Nancy Anyorkor AkoOdoi Poems

Right on this bed you told me you loved me,
And for reasons unknown i believed without doubt.
Little did i know those words would enslave me,
Blinden me, and leave me shattered.
...

I see all his does
I know where he goes
And with whom he goes
But whats the need for caring
...

So many things i wish to do
So many places i'd love to see
And more people i dream to meet.
One minute it seems to be moving in the right direction,
...

It was innocent at first
A stranger’s remarks “Hi” and “Hello”
Greeted our encounter, our gaze
There was no chain of beholden – it was simple
...

Like a dog stuck on its bone,
The door has fast become my favourite spot since you went.
Hoping that one day you will walk through its embrace,
Back into these arms that have long been left bare.
...

My heart goes out to babies, who know nothing about this cruel world.

Who no matter how small, were the hope of a brighter tomorrow for their single mother.
...

His silence like an arrow pierced my heart,

At the dawn of the night, my heart raced
...
