Ever since you left, <br />I have been unkempt. <br />The sun drying my tears. <br />The moon habouring my fears. <br /> <br />Bunmi, you are the lion <br />Belching in valiant actions. <br />Bunmi, you are the diamond <br />Tightening our brotherly bond. <br /> <br />No food tasty enough, <br />Only knowledge I plough <br />My tears like torrents, <br />Tearing my nightly tents. <br /> <br />The callousness of virtue, <br />Aids the triumph of evil. <br />A score year and seven, <br />Leaves me sorely even. <br /> <br />Evil now insults virtues. <br />Discipline eats residues. <br />Indolence berates valour. <br />Innocence emits rancour. <br /> <br />Ever since you left, <br />I have been unkempt. <br />The sun drying my tears. <br />The moon habouring my fears. <br /> - Jude Adebosoye Ogunade<br /><br />Jude Ogunade<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bunmi-ever-since-you-left/
