The Lover's Plea Poem by Bamas Sinach Victoria
The Lover's Plea
Tears and Sadness marks my face
as I stared into empty space
I pondered if I have played my last ace
as I prayed for God’s Grace.
As past emotions comes to the surface
I wondered if our footsteps can be retraced
so that i can stop the mistake in mid-space
because judgment is harsh on my populace
My gender shouldn’t make worse my penance
so don’t see our demise as the only solace
I know it hurts to the extent you grimace
But I am only human just like the populace.
I need you to decide and accept my repentance
and see if you love me more than you hate me.
For, if you love me more than my mistake
then no reason for us to suffer in silence.

Victoria, would you like to have your poem published in a poetry e-book? An Anthology, together with the Italian translation.. If you like, let me know. Cheers Fabrizio
Insightful train of thoughts, well articulated and nicely penned with beautiful rhyme scheme. A heartfelt apology well rendered. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
thanks. Your name is southern Nigeria but your poems reflects South Africa. Nice.

a very good write, Victoria! As I've enjoyed your poem, I've translated your verse into Italian (my native language) .. hope you're not disappointed.. ''Lacrime e tristezza mi segnano il viso mentre fissavo il vuoto mi chiedevo se ho giocato la mia ultima carta e pregavo Dio per una grazia. Mentre le emozioni trascorse vengono a galla mi sono chiesta se il passato possa essere riscritto in modo da bloccare lo sbaglio un attimo prima perché il verdetto è duro per la mia gente L'essere donna non dovrebbe rendere più dura la mia pena così non vedere la nostra morte come l'unica consolazione So che fa male - immagino la tua smorfia di dolore ma sono solo un essere umano, come la mia gente. Ho bisogno che tu decida e accetti il mio pentimento e vedere se mi ami più di quanto mi odi. Perché, se mi ami tanto da perdonare lo sbaglio che ho fatto non avremo alcun motivo di soffrire in silenzio.'' Ciao Fabrizio

Love covers multitude of sins.... It's human to feel hurt but divine to forgive... If we truly love, there's no thinking twice to forgive. Good write friend
