Poetry by Nasibu MwanukuziWay Over Yonder

I do not want our love
To start in flames
For
We will stay hot for so long
But in the end
Tremble into ashes
And the biting cold

I do not want our love
To start as a fresh life
For
It will end as pure death
And marks of our graves
Will haunt our empty selves

I do not even want our love
To start as a bright new day
For
Light is not here to stay
Dusk will break our hearts
And throw the fragments away

I want our love
To start like...like...
Oh!

I do not even know.
