Time Is Dump (I) Poem by Sammy Aswani Luyove

Time Is Dump (I)

Having had your dose of 'piriton'
You still couldn't sleep on!
But said you were lonely
And I thought another dose would be lovely
And so in my arms you dozed
And like a baby you snored
Yet you still dreamt you were lonely!
When I asked why you were lonely
You said time didn't bind our dream dearly
That we wouldn't be together
And hopes we couldn't gather,
But the very time will tell,
And true to its spell
Here I note, as per your remark
That time didn't get stuck
And so you had to pack
And left on my heart a mark
Whose ink is unalterable,
Yet now I am still lonely.

Do you ever think I miss
Your endless calls and kiss!
The wrecks and pleading of my bed!
Does it occur to you what we did?
That I will never find time
To forget your services though firm
Because I was an opportunist
Being a principal bachelor!
Now I know time flies silently
And indeed, time is dump.
