POEMS WITH RUKENNY
I remember
Just like yesterday
My knees were tattooed and hurting
Stamped on stone balls
Cos daily I was praying
As life’s storm raged, so you won’t fall.
In the fierce cold arms of the night,
I was always by your side
Your every glimpse had me insight
When the fire was blazing
And the storm was raging
My home was by your side.
When your joy brewed,
Intoxicating and full
As much as I could,
Together, we drank the happiness too
Laughing and drunk.
Sighs…….
I was there in those moments
Great or small
Happy or sad
I was there through it all!
But where are you now that I need you?
