Mmeso Inspires: Chasing Shadows

I thought Moju will give me the peace I need,

I thought he will fill that void,

I thought he will make me believe in true love once again,

I thought so.

Alas, I was mistaken.

Moju took me for a fool,

He made promises that was never kept,

He turned to a wolf overnight,

He blindfolded me in a quest to surprise me and abandon me in the middle of the road,

I thought I have found love,

Until I was betrayed.

I gave my all,

Though, others were giving parts,

I gave everything,

Though, others were giving some,

I gave true love,

Though, others were faking it,

I was after his heart,

Though, others were after his life,

Yet,

Moju took me for granted.

I never knew,

Moju was the opposite of what he portray,

They all warned me about him,

But I never listened,

Probably, I was so much in love,

That I never see those red flags.

It hurts deeply,

It really sucks deep into my marrow,

That I had wasted my time chasing shadows.

What should I do?

Anita said I should pull a trigger,

Eva said I should let go,

But I have decided,

To heal first.

Can you imagine, girl!

That I had been chasing shadows.

Moju! Moju!!
