Abamo by Adewale Sobowale

Romancing depression,

Living’s a failure!

Death comes with hope,

Of release from life;

Courage needs he,

Life’s rope to cut,

Bull’s enduring,

Neck and knife,

Aren’t friends!

Depression is invasive,

Death welcoming,

Consoles and pets you,

Till almost zero hour,

Point of no return!

Late it is!

Too, too late!!

Between death, and

Last breath-

Comes regret!

Lady breaks my heart!

Hubby jilts me!

Dad leaves us!

JAMB fails me!

Depression’s grimy,

Cold hands!

Addictive cowardice

Or great courage!

Wrongly placed words

Do penetrate

Depth of soul!

And,

He dies!
