"obim" poems
My Obim <3
Oh how I miss you dearly,
I miss your face,
I miss your smile,
I miss your laughter,
I miss your dial.
My Obim <3
2 years has passed and I just now can mourn your loss,
I miss your smell,
I miss our moments,
I miss our childish acts,
I miss our stories,
I miss our sinful ways,
We promised that we would grow old together
We would share our hearts forever.
Oh my Obim <3
How I miss you my love
And no, this is not a letter to the dead
This is the mourning of a friendship lost
We mourn the end of a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife
But no one talks about the loss of a friend, the end of a soul tie.
We might never reconnect again
But maybe in another life, we would work out to be good friends or maybe even sisters till the very end.
I love you dearly
Goodbye, My Obim <3
When my mind began to cloud, I began thinking out loud.

obim,
the most beautiful thing about loving you
are the things i learn about love;
how it can be synonym for wings
and how loving the right woman
was a metaphor for flying, higher
than all the hurdles that used to be a blockade
igosirim na ihu n’anya bu ije
you taught me that love was a journey
and one with purpose
so that it explained a reason
for holding on to life
when difficulties scatter all over
like question marks on a blank sheet
the love we shared became the answer
that explained the destination
at the end of the obscure roads that life was
obim, loving you made me into a philosopher
that searched for optimism
in the unlikeliest of places which turned out
to be the most beautiful
because everything becomes beautiful around you
and when we are out together at night,
I see the face of hope, redressed
in the twinkle stars far up in the sky
when we walk around the parks in the evening,
I perceive music in the chirping of crickets
when we hold hands as we walked together
and you press mine, I feel myself melting into you
it is not that the problems of life go away
sometimes, they come knocking on my door
dressed in their intimidating doses
then I remember, it is you who shares this path with me
and that love is a synonym for wings
and loving you, a metaphor for flying past hurdles
so I fasten my seatbelts and fly
obim, loving you is a safe journey through these rough roads.
