GOODBYE FELICIA

By Josephat Msagha He packed and moved out

Saying to us he couldn’t bag it in

Proclaiming his love, accepting her

And not his seed growing in her

He wasn’t ready to be a father

For that mystery he got further

Came crushing down like thunder

A thud she could handle

You see he was her pillar

Ride or die through life

Joked about her being his future wife

Made a vow to her for an endless love

She was left to wander in her abyss

On how to accept his absence

And embrace what was now a reality

Facing it till the end of times

For he had left her

Because she didn’t want to let go of what was formed out of love

In pain she cried alone in the cold nights

Facing hurdles from her own family

Wishing all events were a façade

Strong, she flanked up to her fruit

Hopefully bidding bye to Felicia

Welcoming to life her next mystery

In silence she opened up her wings wide

Ready to face the incoming storm
