Read Poem: Piconni The Give Out Lover, by Rachel Kabura

Sending out thy truest love

Without a chance to bear

I shall reap what I sow

Affirmed were your decisions

Living proof of your deserter

Your gun pointed to my heart

My last words on your mouth

For I am Piconni the give out lover

Merciless and hopeless

For I remained chained to you

With your gun pointed to my heart

With the last love song we sang in the dark night

With the horrors we have faced

You are still my soldier

I am your war

For you have fought to kill

But I will not let you kill this love

For I am Piconni the Give Out Lover
