Since You've Left Poem by Owoeye Taiwo Bisola

SINCE YOU'VE LEFT


Since you've left, I've been standing at the entrance of your heart, stiff as a palm tree.
I've been doing cartwheels, sweating profusely every time I Iisten to our love song.
Since you've left, my heart had been broken into half and burning with a bright blue flame.
I've been outside in the rain, hoping the rainbow would soon be out in the clouds.
We used to be 1+1=1, now the equation of our our love is now unbalanced, wrong and false.

Since you've left, I've been on my knees daily, praying as if the sky would close in on me.
I've been treading upon the ground carefully because it breathes fire as if it were a dragon.
Since you've left, I've been left desolate and deranged, I'm not healing anytime soon.
I've been out in the storm, screaming to the world I've been hurt once again, as if it cares.
We used to have so much love stuck to our souls, but our souls had become lost in lust.
