The day I met Ibinabo, I fell in love without holding back
Our
relationship looks promising, life was sunny and bright
Then the
distance came and never left
Now I am so
lonely in the dark, cannot find daylight
I met this
girl Yetunde, told me she is a virgin, I should be patient
I could
swear I took her for an angel, ignored everything my friends said
I trusted
her, not until I saw her divorce paper hidden in her luggage
Two kids and
out of wedlock, is too hard to comprehend
I sponsored
Amaka through college until she graduated
My home and
everything I had, to her I gave two third
The next day
she started acting funny and keeping late night
She tells me
sorry darling, you are not educated
There is
this girl I met in church, proposed to her, wedding invitations all set
I
had a stressful day at work, thought I go back home for comfort
There she
lies in my bed sleeping with my best friend
It is the
devil she says, your feelings I never meant to hurt
The world I
have come to know is dead
I can't find
love anymore; it is no use thinking about it
Pain,
rejection and betrayal is all I get
I swear, I
will never fall in love again until my death
I tried but
there is not enough love in this world
Nothing I do
makes a difference to change a girls mind
Not to put
my trust on anyone, regretfully I have decided
It is better
that way, if I want to keep what is left in my heart
