Esther Gyimah's Poetry

Someday when I see you again
I’ll have just one question
I wish to show you
The many written letters

I wrote you many letters
I wish you had read them
I read them to myself
And one day I just burnt them

I hope to tell you
Of how much it used to hurt
Many times my heart missed a beat
When I heard your name
 
It’s been some seven years
But I have just one question
Do you think of me sometimes?
I wish you had read my letters
 
When I do see you again
I’ll ask just one question
I hope you’d want to talk
I hope you’ll see my scarred heart.
