In the newness of love
I found myself falling deep
A taste of its sweet poison
The awakening of love
Like rain in the harmattan
My dry cracked heart welcomed love.
A strong self now weakened
The walls of pain broken
Its sweetness like an epidermic
Quickly sweeping through the heart
Yet, like an awakening
Reviving the emotions from the dead.
