Tell her

Tell her
Days were too harsh for us,
Yet love was our shield.
She didn't get stable pillars,
Sorrow is all she could yield.
All you say is that I was weird ,
When all my heart could do was to sleep in tears.
No regrets though,
We're men not deers.


I may have wronged ,
This I'm probably sure .
But I think she could've waited
If our love was always pure
Mistake is a germ , I deserved cure
From her as my left  arm ,
I wish I had an alarm.


Had I got any chance to apologize,
I could've done it with all my heart.
Ariko yahutiyeho , aribyo byago nagize.
When we meet it's a "mouse and cat",
Please tell her : we deserve a restart .
Ntahana iminsi amayira ntirushonga
Please tell her, it should last longer.

I mistakenly thought
Your heart was a rock .
In a such a desert of an error,
You rushed.
I hope you'll find what you lack,
But I'll be happy to see you back
Inshallah.

Tell her
