I Want To Write You A Letter- Poem by William Ndoyisile Somenze

I Want To Write You A Letter-



i want to write you a letter
with alphabets and words that
articulates the heart's matter
from my thoughts
whence it emanates and
with what the heart is certain of
and decamp these fears that I postulate
that love is pain and
let you reign the feelings i gain and
be the wind that osculates
my skin every night and
tranquilize me with thine'st kind touches and
be the construction company
i set in my thoughts to
recreate the atmospheric layers and
reduct them to two
where twain hemispheres can be found
for you and me
as a place of our residence and
where pain is foreign
and wake me up with whispers to my ears
where joy, serenity and felicity are native

and make me realize that
pain is what we bring ourselves in love, by
trying to find the right piece
that will constitute and
fit our hearts like a glove
when we endeavor to firmly hold on to
something that wasn't and
was never meant for us

forming boulders innate ourselves
hindering us to love the ones we should and
claim that love hurts
when we want to love those travelling in carts
and what is seen or lies before our eyes
than whats in our hearts
i want to say whats right and
be the candle that lights you up
that loving someone is not a mistake
but rather a right one to make
and say i am sorry
not because i look this way
but
because i
feel this way, speak this way and clothe this way
and not that other way you envisioned
hence i am wrong for you

and wish nothing for you but
hope that your eyes find love and
what can satiate the heart for you
cause girls like you never find love enough
