Untitled Poem by Kwenadi Gaaje

It breaks my heart to say "I love you"
It shatter my soul seeing us drifting further apart

You seem not to see the love I have for you
You seem to be blindfolded by your ego
Your pride erased me from your heart and mind.


At times I tend to Question the value of my love
Is it worth to be held tight?
If I may loosen it up
Will I stand back to watch the burning flames of all that I have in?

Sweetheart
All I ever wanted was to love you
To tightly hold you
To be close to you
To pride by you
To always be by your side

Yet! !
All you do is to mock the memory of our love
You make me doubt my efforts to hold on
You were my gold
Now you make it hard for me to hold.

You were my treasure
now I'd only tonsure
To hope for the better
Though you make my heart bitter
Why do you intend in making it hard for me to love you?

The sensitivity of my heart
You failed to protect
The love you betrothed to give to me
Fell between the cracks of my tears


It pains me to say
"I love you"
It breaks my heart to say your name
You make it hard for me to say
" I adore you"
You make it hard.
