How Do I........? Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

How Do I........?



Love is the power supreme but,
How do i tell a boy that i love him?
The touch of my deepest heart is what he is to me and,
I need the courage to approach him on this love.
My culture doesn't permit it but, it is all about love;
It is for the male to first ask the female for love in this culture but,
He is too lovely to my heart that i need to go forward!
My culture doesn't permit it but, i do love this boy;
I have to be very strong on this love because,
He is all that i want to be with me.
'Just do it', 'Just say it', 'Just approach him';
That's all that goes on up in my mind.
Oh my lover boy!
How can i tell you that i love you?
Give me the strength to say it,
Give me the courage to do it,
Give me the guidance to move forward towards you;
For my heart trembles when i do see you walk by always.
