Haunted Love Poem by Bamukunda Hillary

.
.
The child I was,
My heart I gave you,
My love I offered you
Attached on strings of passion
In my eyes you always shone bright
.
Our love has grown over the years
With all the absurdities in life
We have moved on together
With all your failings
I have been there to wipe your tears
That's the unconcealed treaty we have
.
Today I cry for our lost pride
You have cheated on me so much.
Where is our past glory?
The kisses and hugs we had in our youth?
To you I lost my virginity,
And we swore to bond for life
Our lifetime oath still stands
.
Where is your passion for our love?
Where is the beauty of your hips?
Why do you look ugly in a mini skirt?
Where did your cat walk styles go?
When will you bring back the memories?
The days men moved with their eyes in their hands.
When I wore your name from hair to toes
And had your colours by blood sweat?
.
Where is the Arsenal I supported?
The noise I can make no more,
Not even suicide can take away the shame,
Our love is irreplaceable
But the temptation for divorce is real
When will you concieve?
As i feed on this haunted love,
I stand to defeat fate daily
For the gunners are, but no more.
