Nigeria at War: I Miss How we Freely Kissed

How we Freely Kissed

I could not sleep, I move in-between memories and reality,
Thinking how a curing love is gone, far into misery,
Woke dreaming your tenderness, yarning your kisses,
As we use to hold on breast to chest, warmly protected by the clouds,
In a full moon tonight, would have been  moments intimate.

The image of the night, draws near
Came crawling in, while the nations slept, living shadows to guide.
How could we love in a war waged land?
In-between this violent escapes,
There is blood now, upon a once comforting bed,
Beneath the moon we once held, a cry assail!

Suddenly I dared to dream a change
But saw the vultures once again
Freely roaming in a gallant praise, awaiting the butchers,
That a victor hero has brought a shade, is a dream for a poet in this sunny place.

Suddenly! I remembered how we freely kissed,
The memories of your lips against mine,
The mountain of dreams, the courage in our dance,
I remembered the long lost african drums, beating a story,
When we came together, all wars stood still and peace prevail,

Do you remember?
Will you please recall, when we could, Freely dream and sojourn
liberal to the winds we thrived
How children were innocent and their eyes made us proud,
When we were kind to women and delightful at the skill of godly men,
Please remember, let us go back there.

O, I recall how we freely and eagerly kissed
