Silent Night Poem by Uche Nwanze

Nights of passion gone like smoke. Nowhere to be found.
To have and to hold died at the altar.
Long lonely nights I lay pregnant with hope, to keep my bed warm. Nowhere to be found.
Dark days your arms I seek for refuge. Nowhere to be found.
To love and to cherish uttered from your lips, now sweet poison.
Moons come and go, solace in your bosom I long for. Nowhere to be found.
Endless wait for your return, the Night swallows the Sun. Nowhere to be found.
Countless cold nights, I craved your presence. Hoping you'd walk by that door. Nowhere to be found.
Beauty fades into oblivion, wedding bells wanes into obscurity. If only for one night.
Silent sleepless nights, I desired to listen to your heartbeat. Nowhere to be found.
Vows vanish like vain vaunts. My flower if only to water, nowhere to be found.
Restless rainy nights, this lonely soul thirsty for your sweet kiss. Nowhere to be found.
Wet wasted weeks, all I needed was your warmth. Nowhere to be found
The journey down the isle, I wish i never took that path.
Pointless patience for prayers never answered, nowhere to be found.
