Holding on to Hope

Mwalimu Wuod Mwalimu

My dear friend, I hear your plea,

 

For love that's true and sweet as can be,

For ___

Who holds your heart so tight,

Whose beauty shines so bright.

 

You speak of her sweet appearing lips,

Of her brown and cute fingertips,

Of her figure-nane shape so fine,

That captures your heart and mind.

 

But though your love for her is strong,

She seems not willing to play along,

To say the words that you so crave,

And accept the love you wish to give.

 

Oh, how it hurts to love so much,

And yet, your heart she will not touch,

But fear not, my dear, for love is kind,

And in time, it may yet find.

 

Keep loving her with all your might,

And hope that one day, she may see the light,

And return the love that you so give,

And make your heart truly live.

 

For love is patient, love is kind,

And though it may take some time,

It will blossom and grow strong and true,

And make your dreams come through.

 

So hold on to your love, my friend,

And let your heart be on the mend,

For in the end, love conquers all,

And will answer to your call.
