FOR MY LOVE - By Abdulwaheed Olaniyi

I have dived in the mystic ages of your heart, Dreamed  in the silent heart of the night, Envisaged our union Through the binocular rainbow of your eyes. Ayo, I looked through the eyes of the sky, gazing at your rainbow from afar, I lingered to touch the sky, but the cloud held my eyes to hug your heart.

Let my love continue to breathe in the gentle shore of your heart. © Abdulwaheed Olaniyi 2019
