Selam G. Sekuar Poems

I am crazy enough to jump off a bridge for you
Even when i have seen you only once.
I am crazy enough to still be thinking about you
Even when i know nothing of you at all
...

I think that I'm the teacher's pet.
But trust me, I'm no poodle.
I know the answers to the tests
and like to read an oodle!
...

Ten months have passed
I`ll never forget the day
Someone came to tell me
That you`d gone away
...

A genuine girl
One who is smart
A sincere girl
She's true from the start
...

I am a night traveler
Travel all through the night
And my bed is a sailing boat
I reach for my bed every night
...

I think I'll journey out some day to wondrous lands afar,
Or even chart a journey to a distant blazing star.
I make a journey in a paper
A contemplation ink in white field
...

Sometimes in the evening when love
tunes its harp and the crickets
celebrate life, I am like a troubadour
in search of friends, loved ones,
...

Sunday mornings I would reach
high into his dark closet while standing
on a chair and tiptoeing reach
higher, touching, sometimes fumbling
...

Our vernal signs, the RAM begins,

Then comes the BULL, in May the TWINS; -
...

Today again I am hardly myself.
It happens over and over.
It is heaven-sent.
...
