Epitaph

Just like two cardigans

We were the same colour

Sitted side by side each other

Though same colour

The difference was spotted clearly

I on this hand

Was poorly woven

And felt like a cardigan that warms

An orphan, while he on the other hand

Felt like a cardigan woven by

The finest crochet artist

Well crafted and worn only by kings.

Intriguing right?

But above all it was able to radiate from kings

And warm sad poor souls like mine

My Durojaiya

Even if we weren't meant to be

I'll tease fate that I've always wanted him to be the one

It wasn't the fact we shared the same

Pain that drew me to her

But it was her openess like fine seashell

Unlike me who wore different mask

For different occasions

Yet she was able to nurse me

Till I wore no mask again

I fell in love with that and all of her

Even her weird nature of

Colouring her dreads

According to her mood she also influenced

Me on how to address each emotion

And how to nurse myself with grace

She is Hamda

And I'll beat fate on an adventure to go forever.
