Love's Requiem Poem by kofi OfosuEnnin

Love's Requiem



Takes no heroes, and spares none
To my wits end it took me
Devouring all reason and rendering me numb
Me, sensible and thoughtful me
A plague for others, spreading without cause
Logic, my panacea
But then, love only knows fools
In the end, I lay withered and spent
Infallible I thought I was
My defences lay crumbled about me
A worse ruin, Jericho did not see
A deep lament sang within me, as I watched you go
To curse or to bless
In the end, it's all just words
Words that made no difference
But then, as they say
A love lost is a love found
I resign myself to what may or may not be
