Twilights in Darkness

by Peculiar . C. Ene
(Makurdi, Benue State. Nigeria.)

Twilights in darkness
Black petals of red rose
Sweet lies of bitter truth
Was it love or lost?

Prince of my heart you seek
Lord of my heart I made thee
Blinded with love, you alone I could see
Canst your love last at least?

Like candles in dark corners
My love for you burnt
What then is my sin?

Blinded by love
Deef to warning signals
I wish I had listened

On this road of endless regret
I stand to mourn my fate
I've lost to love.
