Mmeso Inspires: No Time To Love

Madu! Whenever you see me treading on the thorns of life, denying myself the pleasures of love  

 Stop me not, because I am a passionate woman fighting for her dreams.

Yes, whenever you see me rushing to the farm as soon the sun rises, call me not because a lot of things awaits my urgency.

Madu! Stop telling people that I am your wife because I am a man and I can never marry you.

Yes, passing through these pains appears insensible to you, but can a steel shine without pressure?

Weep not, whenever you see me working barefooted in the town hall site, allowing nails drove into my flesh and sending the shivers down my spine, because mother is down with fever and Aboy need to go to school.

Don’t stop me on my way to the stream again Madu, because I have no time to Love and love has no time for me.

Can’t you see it Madu, I have no time to play hide and seek or fumble in the dark with you.

What happened to Obiageli, the girl I saw you with, under the mango tree?

What happened to Nkoli the daughter of the albino whom you deflowered?

I have no time to follow you to Sabo fishing festival or Agbadu hunting escapades.

I have no money to buy new beads or mini skirts to please you…

I can never be Azuka, the long necked girl who stole her mother’s money to buy uli onu (lip gloss)

All to please her Pot-bellied man friend.

You better stop giving bush meats to Aboy to keep for me because I can never give in to your demands.

Madu! Stop paying for my wares in the market because, just like the mountain between Sabo and Agbadu’s boundary I can never be moved.

Responsibility has stolen my heart and there is no space for you, not even as tiny as the gaps in between my teeth.

If you stop me on my way to the stream again Madu, I will report you to the Okpala council.

If you come close to my house again, I will make sure you leave with a limping foot.

Just like I said Madu, I have no time to Love and love has no time for me.

I am a passionate woman fighting for her dreams, can’t you see?

Away with you Madu!!
