A Storm Poem by Williamsji Maveli

Still i remember the first day when we met
on a sea shore during dusk, we both sat
in a celestial lordliness you came and stood
biting your nail tops, in a desperate mood

Butterflies of time flew in and around
moonlight scattered away unbound
bad times became an everlasting scream
you too vanished in the desert like a day dream

My mind and body together you embraced
the pain of your separation unbraced
you were born within me as an unwritten poem
and waved through my deep sea like a storm.
