Nigerian Writer: Apart










By Felix Brambaifa

There is no condition to restrain
Like flood the deluge of my pain
The cherished embers flames no more
Like torches cast upon a watery floor

So still the mien surrounding us
Like the fate of an ancient curse
History it becomes of past memories
Erased and vanquished by recent miseries

Our embrace like the deep of cold night
Takes shape like horrible incantations sent
Promises of yesterday is now like distant light
Towards remedy, we are without strength

The active craving of our hearts falters
There is now no melody convenient enough
For vexation is the charity of our tempers
As we aptly disdain all that which is love

So it be wise we embrace our different path
To keep safe the residue from memories wall
To gladly accept the condition of being apart
Before stagnant emotions takes a reckless fall
