NightsA Poem by Adeosun Olamide
Night cometh,
-With the absence of you- It wakens a loathing for the era And there in it I whisper- Day shall come, it shall With the presence of you- And though it crawls, at slowest pace I hurry to it, to your air Feeling presence in all that you held And in all that touched- was warmth Ember -warmth that swallows cold A cold that cometh with the night- Now the good days all gone And feelings wilt- as you fade And ash, halt the desires of day That night- bringer your absence longed And upon then- the desire of night cometh O beautiful night- never leave- For there in slumber-full of dreams My only warmth And there in slumber- that heeds thee My only peace- © 2017 Adeosun Olamide |
