With The Sweet Pleasant Smell Of Her Perfume Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

capturing my nose unaware
with a sweet pleasant smell
that knocked at my heart
and pulled me with a strong rope
propelling me to the window of my soul
where I stared out unashamed
in a magical moment of the day
I saw her face...

our eyes met for a second
releasing electrical bullets
that shot down my spine
and pierced my heart
causing it to jump
in a senseless coup d'e tat
where the winner gets love
and there are no losers
as she gets love too

the sweet pleasant smell
that touched my heart
yanking at my soul
with a romantic poke
stroking my heart
in a pleasant moment
love was born...

she walked away
I chased undeterred
following her smell as she escaped
her perfume ever strong in my nose
I never looked back
determined to catch her
and to tell her
how much I felt
the burden of my love
ever so heavy in my heart
is something she needs to have
to accommodate in her heart

with her sweet pleasant smell
she walked into my life
ransacking my heart
in search of love
the precious jewel
that comes from the heart

I caught up with her
as she jumped into a boat
ready to sail away
across the ocean
into the vastness of the blue sea
where I would never find her
and tell her how much I love her

with her sweet pleasant smell
that infected my heart
leaving me unwell
so sick in love
with no cure available
only her can vaccinate me
and offer me her love
that would sustain my soul
until death do us part

at that moment
she crumbled
giving up her heart
unchaining her soul
she looked me in the eye
and knew I was the one
her prince charming in person
her love incarnate
the hercules of her heart
who rescued her soul
from the fear of love

with her sweet pleasant smell
chaining us together
binding our souls
we sailed away
across the oceans
and so they say
the rest is history
