From Africa to the BahamasA Poem by BETHUEL TJEBANE
The sight of you brings me warmth in my coldness.
The shields to my heart trespassed by your boldness. You became a word of assurance in the midst of my insecurities. Still perplexed by the idea of you being in love with my impurities. I didn't fall for your glitz and glamour, But for the way you expressed your affection for me with clamor. I'd swim across the Pacific just to smell your breath. I like how you put in an accent whenever you say Beth. We're kilometers apart but still connected by a mutual feeling. Your "hello" hangs my mood up on the ceiling. Someone told me that love is like cocaine, well I wanna be addicted like I am to codeine. Yeah give it to me like it's some protein. Fantasies of pillow fights in our pajamas. I love you from Africa to the Bahamas. © 2018 BETHUEL TJEBANE |
