Poetry Alert !!! Behold The World's Longest Love Poem by IzunnaOkafor(m): 7:09pm On Feb 14, 2019 |
Poetry Alert !!! Behold The World's Longest Love Poem Editor's Note: This special edition of poetry, which is the first of its kind was borne out of ardent desire to give this year's valentine day celebration a poetic colour. Ahead of the day, we sent an online call to poets to send in lines and verses. And to that end, we secured contributions from eighteen great poets and poetry lovers from different parts of the country, to weave this panoramic poetic montage. Enjoy!!! Title: My Love For My Love My rose for the spouse I treasure Sparkled I on a glue of miss pleasure Grazing down to the field of lust Only to remember my love for the one I love Love full of life, Life surrounded with joy, Joyful within my heart, Heart meant for you alone, Alone, you fill my thoughts. Thoughtful of you all days, Show me love, Love of my life, And make it unflinching. Hand in hand we held and walked Looking through the straight path We beheld a reverie of green future Where in drinking, we want some more. More of love sparkling like snowflake Across the bed of bliss where magic unfolds In pools of golden ecstasy — embers rising From our hearts; burning our solitude to rust. Where else can I go If I don't visit my ego? What else can I say If don't hail my seer Ọla aka m, adorned with uli Ede oko m, beautified by spear glass called world The firewood I fetched Beyond Orie market bend Today is 14th February Come on, warm my cold heart Revel in my love, Let me rejuvenate your vibrancy, Spread a perky red canopy over your skyline, Like dusty red roses scattered on tarmac floor The love for my love Brings more life than strife, More beautiful than the streets of Bulawayo, Sweeter than a sugary cacao My love for my love Inexplicably rare, not like the jacarandas of Zimbabwe Or the yellow trumpet that adorns Nigeria A cross dimensional touch A supernatural rush Superseding the searing intensity of a Moon Crossing diverging lanes and cosmic space A love surreal like wayo This night too will pass, It will be a memory of fallen leaves, A path of righteous sin Because I kissed your sweet 16. Shall I call you Ogene? The clap of your twin breasts Resonates the reeling song The spirits couldn't sing with the wind. What is as beautiful as your lips? The only path that knows The gate to the temple of sin. My love for my love Is as the sun in the morn It is as the broom in Osho's hands It is as the hairs on Wole's head It is the goose to my bumps The thought of my love My love for my love The star that sparkles in my heart The shadow that guides my path Lead me not to God's wrath As I journey with you my love, my heart Sometimes it lies Sometimes it doesn't It builds castles and holds her prey in captive There are skulls of fury within it gory portrait It does not sound like you've heard it It is either a deceiver or a caresser sometimes love lies also My love for my love In confessions of undying truth, We live indefinitely but not In one state of existence. After this life, I will search For you to a hundred worlds To keep tasting the sweet wine Of your rich nectar which makes Beauty native to your being I will follow you to a thousand Lifetimes to satisfy my longing to Be in your arms and continue feeling the Contours of your exquisite form Which makes you ever alluring. My body in ice smear The shivers, my teeth clinks Sounding the gongs of love For the taste of your warm Oh how sweet art thou Love like green leaf Makes life good to live Like water quenching a thirsty throat My heart you keep afloat Weathering lives stormy weather And toughening me up like leather To make the best use of my time And rule with compassion in my clime. I will forever treasure love And be as gentle as dove Handling each day with focus And making right my locus My everyday Valentine your Love Sprung as a tender bud Pure, healthy and full of life Blossoming everday with the Passage of seasons of life I glow and radiate as a lone Star on a cloudy sky the envy Of love spurned damsels! Little damsel string round my being.. You will be the song on my lips, The rhythm of my pulsating heart, The melody that wiggles my west. Come...I will proclaim your name Fourteen times, fourteenth day of our communion! I will proclaim your beauty to falling stars; Spread your titillating face above the moon; And my verse, a connoisseur of your endowment. Love is a fatherless son, reading the tribute of his late father, Under the hurricane rainfall Love is a bitch especially that of a boy and a girl not too strong to be in love. I sigh and smile when she's not at sight We talked and walked a lot Tried to hide and secretly seek I wanted to write but she's sad I'm void of idea, just sunk She is already double Though I can't stop looking for trouble She has got the most beautiful smile I hide behind my door and sing Who wouldn't want to adore? Think about my pain in peace Breathing gets to its peak I face it with some smirk Better off with a face full of smile Like the rays of the sun, it shines She swept me off my foot Left me with the best mood, I'm over the moon. Time passed by A bid of good bye I bet this will never die. As deep as the oceans As soft as silk As meek as a lamb Is my love for you Words can't express my love You are the reason I live My life is meaningless without you Its just like a song without melody You are my inspiration The life I live, not I that live But you that live in me You are my world Though I'm weak, yet strong in you Your smiles become my vigour You are my light, my star at night You are my world How do I explain the wild kisses, Like a fire in a burning furnace ravages my entire spine Each moment I pass you by I need you like a heart needs a beat, No wonder my life is null without you Can you live in me and pay no rent? Oh! My love for my love What is love that I could not think, Fantasy eludes my reality Shall we rehearse our dream before we tell It speaks from the heart You are my song My song of love Is like the wind, you can't see it But you can feel it My love for my love List of contributors: Izunna Okafor Kayode Awojobi.
