My Epic Love Poem by Benjuzzy Okpuzor

When shall we learn to love,
And laugh again!
Lily livered I'm, but I bleed
When pricked;

Why would there be life
Without you I wonder!
My tent, and heart yields, and
Yearns for you, my priceless

Pearl, how still I stare, and
Stunned at your angelic
Splendid, a glorious goddess
In her prime, and sublime.

I could hunt deer for my dear
One, while we grow crops
Together, till we grow old
And cold.

And when the day drowse,
And dream we told tales of
Love lost, my Emerald
Turquoise;

Hear me you, in this hue;
See me here, for where I'm
Is what I'm, that I long for
Love as our bound, and tight

In heart you should seal me
Close;
So many words lost that may
Never be find.

Yet If you could ever tell my
Story;
Tell tales of the bright star
That burns forever in your

Heart, and that your various
Smiles, was min,
But remember;
That there's no life without you
