Because I Love You... Poem by Owoeye Taiwo Bisola

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU...

Because I love you, you brush me aside like I'm nothing but a dusty speck on your dress.
You watch my lips move endlessly and you make no move to listen to the words I say.
Because I love you, you tell the other guys I'm like a baby craving for your attention everyday.
You watch me sing songs wafting from the wall of my heart, you love not my love lyrics.

Because I love you, I stood in the blinding rays for days, hoping you would stand with me.
You watch me scribble songs on the sheet of your heart, hoping you would sing with me.
Because I love you, I crossed and climbed bridges to hammer into your heart my love.
You watch me choking to death, gasping for air, you couldn't even lend a hand to lift me up.
