I wrote this poem while I was thirteen and it won the THOMSON Poetry Prize in Nigeria in 2001....blah blah blah...and this poem was borne out of the things I saw when my brother's girl friend swooped into another thing...I have decided to share it with y


You're Heartbreaker

Sometimes I hold myself within you
And I pray that I would never fail you
But now, you have been a disgrace to me
Just like a fool

You make feel that you're heartbreaker
Coulda woulda be no longer
And never find another wonder
That gives me the loves that meander

Lai lai lai lai lai lai

When you looked into my eyes
And felt that I would be the one
That you could trade for infidelity
I never felt so bad
But seeing you with my bosom friend
Makes me feel so rude

You make me feel that you're heartbreaker
Could that would that be no longer
And never find another wonder
That gives me the loves that meander
