My Sweet Mantra Poem by John Ugolo Umah

I will always love you
each time the thought of you
comes in to lodge

I always have an incomplete day
except when I recollected
those sweet old days

you are exceptional
nobody have been able
to fill the wide space you left

even though I am fulfilled
I'm empty somewhere deep
just like you are

let pride and egoism of life
stay far from us both
so we can fulfil life together

my sweet mantra
Oh! Sweet mantra
will always be

for those fights and tears
for simple trust and faith
and those arguments

I wish and want to take
all the blame for how much
I have always loved you

my sweet mantra
my sweet life with you
I will always love you...
