Sailing smoothly on a ferry
Destination inconspicuous story
Wines and candies accompanies the charm
Eyes closed and warm breath exchanged
In the propinquity of nostrils
Kisses from the heart with lips and tongue sinking
Into the deep of our mouth
Tomorrow seamlessly far to ring a finger
Love like the sea… endless
Blue as the sky and deep as passion
Like Jackie we fought
Forces burly each day
Powerful and soul consuming
Slaying like Spartans
Third parties we drown in the pool of deftness
Tall and strikingly irresistible
Everyone talks about her
Musicians sing about her
Tuface call her an African Queen
Robert Kelly call her a Butterfly
Even my friend Wizkid call her Caro
But I call her Kandy Karoe
Cos she blesses my heart with sweetness
My heart beats only for Karoe
On the phone like a paid job
Her voice… hmmm…
Peaceful and warm to start my everyday hustle
Waited so long to slide into your well of sugariness
Suffused with feelings of being in your warmth
You promised you’ll be right there
After some pushups and neat shaves
And stretching of long-laid bones
The pleasant sound of splashing water
Bathed every strand of my hair to soul of my foot
The cold bathe was amazingly convoyed with love songs
Fragrance squirts on my tender skin
Hopeful for an amazing convene
A trip to the emotional world
Like you’ve once demanded
The line was drawn
Our flight crashed on the pitch!
The same pitch I first knew you
Now I beat my drums and dance to my music
Alcohol and no candies shepherding this trip
The grounds sinking my foot
The sky wane over my head
Life drowns like the sea
Picking up the residue of my piece
Facing reality like death
Red lights everywhere
Fragrance dispersed into space
But I’m trying to move on
I can’t buy your love I know
Although I don’t want to try
It’s so inflexible to say…
My heart beats only for you
You broke the truth that makes me happy
My expectations drop deep into my emotions
If this is love
Love must be stupid!
I’m off for the journey of life and fulfillment
I will prove to you
How less a time purpose grow into wealth
You will read, hear and know about me
Goodbye my Kandy Karoe
Jumped off the cliff to reality!
My breath paced
Sweating like I just came out of the shower
Shivering while I lay there on my bed
Thank goodness!
It’s just another nightmare
Sigh!
