By Kwesi BISSUE
Since the day their eyes set on each other
Those eyes rested on none other
Not on another sister
Not on another brother
Those eyes closed to all others
None for a pal
None for a neighbour
Only eyes to see one another
From that day on
The duo lived like a pair…feeling no pain
From that day on
They loved from a heart…knowing no hurt
From that day on
Two souls longed to be in arms…wishing to charm
Longed to embrace in arms…for a calming balm
From that day on
After many days
Two lovebirds strolled to hold hands to row ahead
After many days
Those two walked and talked to be heard
After many days
They trotted to plot their next turn
Ran to raise their hopes for a dream
After many days
After many more days
Two voices shouted a love to sound aloud
After many more days
Two loves sounded loud enough to sing a lasting love
After many more days
He and she longed to love together hereafter
Loved to long after each other forever
After many more days
That day arrived one day
When the family saw his fiancée
That same day
Shame and scandal hit the family
Shame when a father met a daughter abandoned to a mother
Abandoned and forgotten as a daughter
That same day
Scandal when a brother confessed to a romance with a sister
Scandal when a sister had conceived for a brother
That same day
Now they know
They know the reason they so resemble
Now they know
They know why they are so inseparable
The chemistry so incredible yet so credible
The push and pull so irresistible
Now they know
They know they entangled for trouble
Now humbled by the trouble from the gamble
Now they know
Now daddy knows
He knows his bottled up fling
Has troubled his double family for life
But daddy did not know
He did not know that the knot he tied around his neck
From the ceiling of his master bedroom
Brought double shame to trouble his double family ever after
He would not know…ever
