ASSURANCE

 

ASSURANCE

 

Western sky orange evening here,

Nostalgic memories, alive, lit sheer,

Auburn unruly hair if windswept,

Longings imprinted in eyes, wept, (1)

 

Stolen long year like desert sand,

Contour configured change hand,

Signed on paper, fewer hesitation,

Evasive decided to break relation, (2)

 

Looked at the eyes, massage, nail,

Surprised told stranger life, derail,

Lack repentance, love, tender soul,

Surmise your mission and differ a goal, (3)

 

Sacred ceremony fire oil, inflame,

United, that time stood to blame,

Promises many dreams, myriads,

Your career, family friend triads, (4)

 

Pull apart, matrimony disbelieve,

What happened in my life, survive,

Conceived pregnant thought sad,

Convinced the wedlock tied mad, (5)

 

Split-second doubt could inhibit,

Trust my beloved life did exhibit,

Dreamed, a sweet home children,

Castle in the air faded if shaken, (6)

 

Hoped to materialize home sweet,

Rejection, your action, time greet,

Cried for a few days, silently alone,

My life, I reckon, friendship none, (7)

 

The long path ahead of me, visible, lit,

Lonely life, single, sorrows I defeat,

Discover heart once belonged tell,

Possessed, had pride my love yell, (viii)

 

My soul or heart, your boundary,

Enslaved liberated not necessary,

Spread your wings, darling forgot,

Continent is distance reject effort, (9)

 

Consoled stable find fire betrayed,

Hot lava determination portrayed,

Promise to me, to God, stand bold,

Rise from ashes a giant tree hold, (10)

 

No flower fruit well-known carries,

No shed below, cool breeze, series,

No bird build a nest and chirp merrily,

Visible a giant tree, future cheerily, (11)

 

That can withstand typhoons, hit,

Face thunderstorms, lightning lit,

Loves my life precious to witness,

The blue sky birds cloud impress, (12)

 

Observe life sprouts up ruination,

Summer past present goes union,

Life will branch out higher bright,

Kiss skies during night star-light, (13)

 

Feel the surreal cold breeze moon-lit,

Dews falling wet leaves end greet,

Live till the end, happy endurance,

You betray me, broken assurance. (14)
