POETRY: A LOT LIKE LOVE

WRITTEN BY BERNERD GABRIEL OKURUT

It was but a kiss on my left cheek
That left me lost and love sick.
Her malicious perfume,
And finger-licking lipstick!
The roses she painted in my heart
With the smooth touch of her
borrowed angelic hands.
A lot like love!

Her smile kept on beckoning me,
Her eyes enchanted me.
That voice too, devilishly enticing.
I yearned to listen more,
I longed to be kissed, touched
And never let go.
To be comforted with lies
And heal my anxiety with her forced smile.
A lot like love!

The deeper the feeling,
The more of me I lost.
My love for beauty,
A thief of souls!
I was a half soul, the rest
Was a pillar of salt.
A lot like love.

Like a tree in summer,
So acted love.
She shed off all her leaves of green
And turned a smile into a frown.
The wows, she turned to woes.

The sweet songs into dirges
And lovely dreams into night mares.
What a scheme!
A lot like love!
It caused me such a sweet pain.

Poem by Bernard Gabriel Okurut.
