Beyond Words/conviction by gorociano: 9:25am On Jan 18, 2010 |
I met this girl She was, she was Perfect beyond words I met this girl She was, she was Ravishingly stunning Stunningly ravishing I met this girl She was, she was With eyes filled With snow with milk Creamy, thick, diamond milk I met this girl She was, she was O! I’m lost for words Meeting was by chance In the boisterous light of her hall The fascination, when it came was not small Though fleeting, it had me by the balls Dismissed as not real But in the dark recess Kept gnawing at me Throwing me towards restless Up and down I went Left and right I greeted East and west were congratulation Its not easy having one’s convocation Slugging home in harmattan haze After jollying and frolicking of the day Moving swiftly with dainty steps I heard In my front the object of my inner stress Warmth grew as I approached Questioning why beauty should brood Haze disappeared the moment she spoke Love grew faster than a mushroom In my mind I was spoken for Never again will I make such proposition But for her it was not straightforward Simply ‘cause she lacked conviction How much art thou o conviction? I’ll get Fort Knox if that is your price Where art thou hidden, o conviction? I’ll search in the Hades and polar ice How far art thou, o conviction? I’ll thread for thee in galaxies far from sight. Searching maniacally, this I have been doing Looking voraciously, this has been my cross Working tirelessly so I could afford it But I fear that when this is got Captured, bought and bottled up To present to the fairest of all It may be too late For while waiting she may choose another mate I pause to bemoan this fate Precious time lost while stock I take Losses higher than Himalaya Mountains Wounds deeper than Ogburu gorge Still I carry on strenuously Stubbornly I believe fervently Even if one in a million A hope there is for her as my hubby.
