Love (A poem written by Oladoyin John)

LOVE
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Like a gas explosion it jerks the heart
And stings like a bee,
A dominating effect it brings
Obstructing faculty as of a bandit.

Coldly warmly hot
It cuddles my heart like a suckling’s
Creating a jiffy of an affection,
Familiarizing my heart to a new system,
Garnering my system for a journey of no return.

Oh! What an intoxicating effect it brings!
Creating a tolerable effect even for a disheveled status,
Matriculating to an affectionate effect;
An encomium it brings as an after-effect
Dropping off my spirit into an Alladin’s cave.
