I Depart Poem by Pius Didier

I Depart



You took our lives shabaab
With a miserable desire to curb
You took my life willingly
With your masks marked ugly
You caught me verily untold
And connotatively swept my threshold
If your consciousness was indeed complete
Why did you leave my heart split?
You caused the flooded stream:
Having had a forgone and shut dream
When alone remember
All about the promised harbour
For you only shut my flesh berate
But my soul will thereafter perambulate
For you only stopped my thud and blood
Though my soul shall hereafter crowd
Yes, it shall impale and comfort
Am proud to have seen the century lot
Thus departed are we you caused
I will live, and of course I wide
Through the Father
Through the Son
And the ever present spirits,
I depart brethren.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem was written 2hrs after the terrorists attacked Garrisa University College in Kenya,2015. Its dedicative, written out of anger that longs...147 lives taken from young optimistic Kenyan students. I was left with very little but took a pen to write, I wrote 'I Depart' out of humanity a sense seen to address the feeling of a concerned heart. It oppeses the rules of poetry as a result of the same. It was meant to sympathize by then.... I would be guilty if I failed to share it with my readers. God Bless.
