Dead Love

by Abbia Udofia

She once groomed and slew love like livestock
She dropped second love over the cliff.
Now she is finding her shadow and seeking 
Dialogue with the brooding ghosts 
 
I will seek her sterling smiles
I will find her virginal vestiges 
To break the huge avalanche in my gaping soul  
We will fly and glide and glide and fly  
Like courting eagles; like dating butterflies 
Against the whirl storms of doubts
Against the whirl storms of ghosts.
