The woe of a broken loveA Poem by IsimbabiThis is a spoken work poem. "A" loves "B" so much that 'A' fears 'A' will destroy 'B'.
Hey, I don't know how to say this but,
I think I've fallen in love, Again. I've fallen for your smiles, the ever-present twinkle in your eyes. I've fallen. for your jokes that aren't even funny. for your weird sense of humour and incessant giggles. I wish we could settle for a languorous life and bask in the warms rays of enamour, but, I fear, That even though you've razed my fields of spires; the arrogance And settle in the heart of my temple after looting my chest, I haven't done the same, To you. I fear, That my monosyllabic replies and taciturnity will do little to win over the heart of one whose demeanor alone can summon the sun and put an end to a storm. Whose every word carries an octave complementary of the orchestral melody of the voice. I fear, That I am the narcissistic pride of the egoist mired in depression, Sinking ever deeper till the surface is thought of as merely an illusion. I fear that every word I speak to you, will take from you, at a time, a little bit of your angelic hue, Till eventually all that will remain of your shine will be but a glimmer equivalent to the reflection of a silver coin at the bottom of the ocean. I fear that in all of your beauty I am a curse. I fear that you are beauty and I am a beast. © 2023 IsimbabiAuthor's Note
