Wandering Tears. Poem by Ben Chukwuemeka Okere II

Just like yesterday, you slept with no pills
My heart also had a rest with thee
For mine was gone with no ills
As everyday gone by, I look to Heaven with great plea.

Two years gone, two years my tears has wandered
For mine only solace lies deep in my hands
Pneumonia, came and snatched you, you that he never fathered
For your beauty, is now familiar with the sands.

Two years have I been in this dark hole,
Awaiting the embrace of your pretty smiles
Yet, I'm cold, cold in my heart and soul,
As everything, now in the pit lies.
