Laying An Eye-Opener Love To Rest Poem by Alem Hailu Gabre Kristos

It took me long
To bury
My much-cherished love
Adamant to let go
"My no other than you
Romance-packed song;
A song aiming at
Ramming home
A message strong
Inviolablyto you
I belong! "

This way to much
Water has passed
Under the bridge,
While in vain I labored
To give my love
A cutting edge.

At last, you said
"Though I feel flattered
I am afraid
Unequivocally I must
Deny you a go ahead.

I do not want you
To be a loser
With a fervent desire
To get closer."

Okay, so be it
Swallowing the
Bitter pill
Go forward
I will.

God willing
With my second best
I will proceed forward
Laying my
Eye-opener love
To rest.//
