Mmeso Inspires: Forever Something

It is not too late to leave, you know…

Tessy said to me.

But I knew it was,

I had chosen my prison mate,

And we have been sentenced to life imprisonment.

It is for better for worse,

Probably for better for better,

I would say.

Those days, when you don’t feel like showing up,

Those times, when you feel like shutting everyone out,

You must embrace peace.

You must let in and you must show in grand style.

No longer those moments…

That I went for a visit after he endlessly entreats me to come,

Hoping to go home soon as usual while he sees me off the gate,

Later did I realize that it is forever.

I must stay even if I need a break,

I must live even if I need to go,

It is truly what it is.

It is not late to leave, you know…

Tessy said to me.

But I knew it was,

My lilies look up to me,

A good example I must set,

They must not be products of a broken home,

Truly,

I had chosen my prison mate,

And we have been sentenced to life Imprisonment.

Though we fight, we must make up

Though we lock out we must lock in,

It’s not just about Paul and I,

Our little ones are involved now,

And we have reputation to protect,

Can we just build in love,

Because,

This is forever something.

Lo,

I had chosen my prison mate,

And we have been sentenced to life imprisonment.
