by Tiema Muindi
I look back
At the tracks of my life,
Fallen are trees
That had blocked my dreams,
Dry are rivers
That had flooded my hopes,
As you stand there
Who would have been my wife,
With charm and beauty
That would have been my drive.
I do now cry
For what would have been mine,
The bride, my pride
I never even tried
It was just in mind
I never said it a loud,
That I lost a bride
Who would have been my wife,
With charm and beauty
That would have been my drive
At the tracks of my life,
Fallen are trees
That had blocked my dreams,
Dry are rivers
That had flooded my hopes,
As you stand there
Who would have been my wife,
With charm and beauty
That would have been my drive.
I do now cry
For what would have been mine,
The bride, my pride
I never even tried
It was just in mind
I never said it a loud,
That I lost a bride
Who would have been my wife,
With charm and beauty
That would have been my drive

Me Too : "Beautiful.Say what you want to say always, to avoid dissapointments like the speaker here."- Christopher Kudyahakudadirwe: "This poem is full of feelings waiting to be experienced (or have they been experienced already?). It reminds one of those girls that one had before getting hooked on this ONE who is with you right now. The language is very simple and easy to understand as much as the message therein. These are the kinds of poems that make this website very popular. I love it."
