Begging for her indulgence

Begging for her indulgence

Years have gone, with echo of silence,
since our severance
As a penance for my iniquities against you,
I confined myself to the mud.
Every night comes with late night lantern
burning in my chamber as I try to write,
my ink is as dry as harmattan leaves,
yet my hunger to pen is alive and well,
I write in desiccated lines.
