Reveberating...

A Poem by Ruthie Igunbor

I love you so much that I need you

I'm not the one who cried wolf

I'm the one who saw the light through the thick pigment of dark skin

And wanted to believe

That it was an act of God

A light whose beam could break through the ice

When things got a little harder

A light that revealed the colours of...

... Strength was red and

Faith was the golden sash that adorned it

Love was blue, or was it purple?

The light could have clouded my sense of...

Green! I can see his kindness

And my yellow streaks of loyalty

Walk towards your light! I wanted to believe it was mine

Only I could see it

Could you? and would you let its colours show?

Let the cover your crimson blood

Blue, yellow, purple, green skin

On brown

Shine through

Shine through heavy stones of ice

Can you see it now?

Just Believe...

Let me love you
