Memento

I was such a dummy in the senior high school

Accounting, chemistry and physics I found so uncool

My placid nature mistaken for a fool, lashes then brood

In one of my physics lesson through which I slept mostly

I finally met one concept I understood not forcibly

The first law of thermodynamics,

A punch line I cannot miss

The law of conservation of energy

I understood to the extent that the teacher owed me an apology

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, however

Can be transformed from one form to another, whatever!

A theoretical hypnotism I became addicted to as my life sped with pace

“Love cannot be created nor destroyed”, a curse I have come to embrace

It’s neither a race nor anything at all with an easy trace

Love can only be transformed from an envious moment together

Into a treacherous sorrow when put asunder

As I took an x-ray of my past life

I saw patched pieces of my ex

Though not a memento of sex

Rather an unknown shadow

Called it a love hay meadow

That could cause a new girl to mellow or vex

Was hoping to tour the entire world to get happy

But the tragic thing happened,

When I fell in love suddenly

We were too young to be sensible

That explained why we fumbled

And then memento,

Maybe you like to know

I checked her whatsapp dp like three times a day

Felt like she was the angel bringing my replies each day

It’s like she locked my head in a love bay

And plays with my head without pay

I thought it was all over

But I can still hear sounds from our kiss whenever

And feels a sharp last that could run forever

The moments we shared together have not changed

Even as we both changed partners

Because in everything we still look same

Still lingering are strips of love madness

 

We claimed we had broken up

But even with a thought to make up

Her images come up

She has got a hard protective shell

Not like snail on the market to sell

But a rare recipes with a distance smell

Laughing relics of roadside kissing 

Onlookers always find pissing

Kisses sounding like snake hissing

Big stares and eyes fixing

Every moment was a time bomb, waiting to explode

We both knew but we chose to fake to be bold

(an object kept as a reminder or memory for someone or something )

STDs Sincerely and Truly Desired

She replaces a missing rib and feeds me with

No food like a drip
