If My Words Suit You. Poem by Abdullahi Alim Haji

Please, if my words please you,
If you appreciate my attire,
If you've seen me endure the fire,
If you bestow me attention,
And you belong to the opposite gender.

Verify it in the dictionary,
That they label it a heart.
If it verifies you are correct,
Then take a meaningful action,
Indirectly convey the sentiment,
With arrows, pierce my heart,
Without words, welcome me.

If you lack authenticity,
Dear, I owe you minimal effort.
Distance elongates our parting,
Directions lead us astray,
Erase the false narrative,
Rub away those tales.

Natural woman, if you are,
Without trespasses thus far,
With her hips, veiled completely,
Rustles anticipate from my side,
Genuine responses with high regard,
Richly, I reset myself.
