UoRight's January weekly prompt; Muhindo Brian Kihemu

 

A WATER PURIFIER IN A LILY GARDEN

Despite the wall’s absence, I

Continue

I still require it, and I still require

You.

We shall stand in a field with the

Blessing of the sky

At some point, I am sure of it.

I need you without knowing why,

I dance with all the freedom of

Unadulterated delight.

But even now, I’m still worried

That you won’t understand

How much I need you and that I

Might lose you.

You fill me with bliss

My cup you fill to the brim and it

Pours

You are the blossom, and I am

The Eden.

My drinking water, your braids

Purify

The flowers dive and they sing

Your beauty and presence

Oh! Fountain of love and life.
