How Can I Poem by Justin Nyamoko

How Can I



In the street light with colours of light
Your face with beauty hanged
Like you were born now gone
Raped and crucified for us to see
Yet my mind roam within your sprit

Love my heart you the thought
When it wandered in springs of suicide
My quest to eat from another mother
You killed it by giving me all

I wish a good teacher you coul have been
Teaching me how to let things go
But you forgot to teach me
How to let you go

When awake, when asleep your soft hands I touch
As we sing go down deep the sea and sink

Allow me to join you land beyond
Where love shadows don't fade
My head is drying out
Like a desert thoughtless I have become
From the inside am already dead
Come to my rescue and let me in.
Before they call me mad

Before they call mad
Allow me to join you in eternal peace
Your red lips like raw meat
I miss when my lips visited yours
Like a cave my mouth open
To receive the unseen kisses of dreamland's

Allow me to join you
The sisters you left aborting
As if competing for gold
Yet I stare thinking about you
The love of my life

Allow me to join you
For reasons to stay under the sun
Taken by strange phenomenal
You brother married his nephew
Sister Han is married to sister Hawn
Why I want to join you
How can I live?
