Once, I Had A Love Poem by Tobias Ondoa

‎I had a love once, it twinkled like stars.
‎Even when wind waged war on our story,
‎I thrived to add a chapter; wedding mass.
‎Night had its way as dawn; its own glory.
‎Once, I had a love, it bloomed like flower.
‎It was mild and calm like a wind at dusk,
‎Guiding us out of that house of fire,
‎I left it uncaged, even it went dark.
‎Once, I had a love, now it is long gone.
‎A child that I was; failed to hold its rage,
‎And no matter how it glowed like the sun;
‎Like sun too, it will surely quit the stage.
‎So, once I had a love, but failed its game,
‎Of all I could get, I got none but shame
‎
