'I Stitch Your Wound' Poem by Ovi Odiete

'I Stitch Your Wounds'

You know how much our love has travelled
your pain, my sorrow,
my grief, your anguish
You and I know how much we can sail,
so let's come together and run away.
I chase you beyond those oikon trees,
where you hide those dark secrets.
You chase me towards the junction,
where the road divides and
where the trees tell the stories
of the secret I cannot say
and then
