Sing me a lullaby

Well shame on me! I haven't kept my writing promise! I have been so obsessed with fear of looking like failing that sometimes - I keep myself from writing my life! But - they say a poem never starts until you start speaking the truth. I saw her in a crowd, But, it was not me she was looking for... I buried my screaming aching heart - In the midst of my palms.... Breathe love, breathe I want to be with someone forever And I want it to be you! In this life and past it I want to take care of you In sickness and in health - give you my life In wealth and when we sleep hungry... I want to be mischievous with you now and haunt the world as ghosts with you I don't believe in much, but I believe in these things! No matter how hard the wind throws me off the shore I know you will find me I sang her a lullaby! It will be well dear heart  © Namatsi Lukoye
