OPENED ENVELOPE!
Your tomb tattooed soul rest in peace, still no peace in my living soul
Death of you slain life cheers, spewed my joy as foul
No leash, only bloodstains with handprints all over your room walls
Tears wiped, investigation closed, blood cleansing occurred, my friend falls!
Every breathed hour seethes your absence day
Eyeing sea-sky, hoping for utter in your larynx on séance day
No more vivacious beings in my livelihood today
You left on a silent day, at dawn of day, I oath this death as foray!
If neither tumour nor disorder were the cause, I'd vaguely accept but running?
Messenger posts every day, mentally, who to blame?
My shoulders, not trained to broaden, confidence steadily at zero
Knees kneeling for a knell, with you behind it as a hero
Every plan we laid together, a lyricist Roro and a rapper Negro
World in our palms, today I pen without you as voice, almost in vitro!
Request thrown up sky, pleading unto your assistance
All I own are shadow footprints of your existence
Be my looker, my forebear, I'm out of patience
Outside its man-man prepared feast, there's no more obesience!
