Namesake lover
Thina Maxathi 1999 (Cape Town)
As dew my love gets freezing in cold night, until your text hit my phone then commence to get warm.
My knees feel like are being striked by dew as I set my eyes on faultless god creature.
No dream feels like this, If it is let me slumber ertenal.
No dream gives goosebumps as colossal train passing by its footsteps shake my feet.
I have waited, to call you mine perhaps that was a dream I had to hold back till you accept the request.
Will I ever refrain from feeling elation that comes from seeing rare innocent, angelic eyes, only demise would cease this soul shaking affection.
Namesake lover, me in a different gender.
Come cyclone, rain or storms, devotion shall not shake nor go away with floods.
Come devil I will be devil slayer for you.
Come judgement day, I will be on the cross paying for your sins for they are mine, you are my namesake.
My namesake lover.
