Beyond Poem by Fasika Ayalew

hard cover
tattered edges
a dull front
with torn pages.
however i dared
despite the cover
i tossed through
from chapter to chapter
from life to life
from time to time.
The romance and comedy
The suspense and pleasure
The joy and adventure
to know i was eager.
As i did,
it was a story with strong theme
mesmerizing
compelling
from what it seems.
it was nice with a good content
as i flip through the volumes of your heart.
it was full blown and whole
as i flip through the maniscripts of your soul.
Beyond the torn pages,
with you as i talked
with you time i spend
there was honest person
to konw you as i dared.
Beyond the cover.
