Letter From The Grave Poem by Idris Adesina

Letter From The Grave

Rating: 0.5


Goodbye
For here alone
Is grave alone
Goodbye-the ugliest word
To ears in this world
Goodbye my gentle soul
Thousands souls in a soul
The distance widens the space
Pricked this love to lace
The love you built in thy heart
A heroine thou art!

You that moved hills
You that read the forbidden pages
My Queen of ages!
You copped even with streamer
A Legend you are!
You that calmed the wine's doom
With its shape of loom
Since dead is Cupid, I deem
Goodbye the unfulfilled dream

No hand touches like yours
Life without your breath sours.

Goodbye Precious soul
That mend my dead sole.

Now,
The sibs die to see the world
The world we promise them
The universe is down
Convicts took power
The moon left it
The sun boycotts its duty-
All to find you-
The day has refused to come
The night's alone like me
And the stars cry for a mother
More than plague visited heart
The eyes that saw your wave
Till we meet again
Untill then Goodbye.
