The Portrait 😢 Poem by Mfonobong Ituen

This is a symbol of you I made
When nothing seems to fade
Now that fate has lost its faith
What a life so tasteless
I was the artist of love
The aesthetic of your comeliness
There I made my business

Just like yesterday
Fill with past ruin
Got carried away
Never believed on the hillside
you were just enough for me

Oh! What a reminder
As you held my hands in solemnity
"Promise I'll be back, just for me"..
Closely I watch as you say as my heart ache, blood hurting
I breath fire as air..oh! the sudden dryness
I lied never to wake

Days turn into weeks
Weeks now months
Months for a year
A day watch-guard I become
To see you appear calling out on me
Those loving names you gave

Let it be what it is
The memory of you I made
Just for our little Princess 🤴 to hear a story of "ONCE UPON AN ICON"
