CECILIA OVER MY SHOULDER

poem by: Kenvil Atkins
Written on Jan 24, 2021

Why did your guardian had to make demands on my heart? 
The heart speaks only of love its language international. 
I knew myself and saw me as a man with wondrous gift. 
My love a burning fire a hundred streams could not quench. 
Our passions still brewing before the mating being free souls.   

A guardian what more a rogue a scoundrel destroys my life. 
I see your pearly eyes an Egyptian of modern-day beauty.  
You walk like the pharaoh of my dreams such grace poise and beauty. 
We both were young, and love would find a way but die that day. 
I curse the day love ended for me we it is a high price to pay. 
 
Never embracing your sweet smell of forgetfulness linger on 
I see your burning lights below and watch for your silhouette. 
I thought someday to be a groom your precious hands I adore. 
A second chance that never came stripped apart I am to blame. 
For guardians do what must be done that is the way things are won

Sparkling eyes luscious lips hips that sway you cannot resist. 
To think she love me let us just kiss.
Alas that moment I did not feast.

Cecilia still on my mind
