The way to my heart
Was a shattered corridor
Where surplus of loneliness, fears, and
Suspicions littered here and there.
But your smiles lighted up the darkness
And your words gave a thorough sweeping
Of every remain of gloom, hatreds, and doubts
That spewed in every corner of my heart.
These your smiles have hacked my heart
And your voice has captured my mind.
See how your navel intoxicates my eyes.
Your charm has stunned my brain.
Your glamour has accessed my heart.
The shine from your eyes dries up the moist
from the debris of distrust, anxieties, and fears
that made my heart miserably nervous.
My strength only bows before your beauty
Ubokobong, indeed you are my only weakness
Ima mi, see how your love has veiled my stares
No other beauty can match your charm.
Open up the pages of your heart
And let my ink-filled lips of poetry
Inscribe my genuine love interest.
Come, quench my thirst for that one kiss.
