Flaunt no more your ‘weapons’
In them, my ‘selective’ eyes take no delight
Like a disingenuous advert offering clients its ‘blight’
They are just but a shiny rose amid deadly thorns
Weep not if futility results from your frantic strides
In trapping my heart, for hand-in-hand with failure, love rides
Am not blind, am much aware of the eye signals
Am not deaf, my ears grasp the desperate pulse of your heart
Insensitivity, you say you hate in a man.
What about insincerity?
What about insecurity?
You’re a damsel that deserves no heartbreak
Am just a Casanova that shows love but fake
Rome, they say wasn’t built in a day
My vicious love ‘tools’ was forged long time ago by a woe-man worthy of flay
As sluggish seconds transformed to wearied minutes
Lonely Minutes to frustrated hours
Cumbersome Hours to routine-ridden days
Love-hunting days to love-hoping weeks
Love-battered Weeks to recuperating months
Recuperating Months to vengeful years
In the eyes of woe-men I have caus’d ‘streams’ to flow
My feelings for woe-men are fleeing; for you I’ve nothing to show
So for you own good…Flaunt no more you ‘weapons’ …
