Mmeso Inspires: The Gold Digger

I knew he truly loved me,

But I was not going to feed on love,

I knew he truly cared for me,

But what is caring when wealth is not involved,

I was not going to suffer with him,

Though I come from a humble background,

I want something greener,

Will you call me a gold digger?

I knew I was getting it all wrong,

When I started humiliating him to feel good,

I treated him like a trash because he was helplessly in love with me,

He called at my workplace with lunch pack and I quickly called my friends to make fun of him because his shoes were torn,

He had quietly dropped the food on my table and left,

I could see that tears welled up his eyes,

Yet I was not moved,

Why will I settle for a pauper where Chief Zaza has promised  me assets and vacations all over the world.

I dumped the food in the trash and quickly bought it out to consume when my friends went back to their offices.

Despite the humiliations,

He refused to give up on me,

But I don’t want to suffer at all,

So he was out of the picture.

It is either chief or the dude that lives in Parkview estate,

I frequently call to ask him for money and he always provide it,

Where he always get the money from was the least of my problems,

Though I was surprised because he always seemed to have them handy,

I knew he always sent me his last card to make me happy.

What a poor boy!

The scale fell off my eyes as soon as I thought it to be a dream,

Damian was not a pauper,

He has no torn shoes,

The company where I worked was the least of his companies,

Chief Zaza was one of his employees,

Now I understood why he speak fluently and look neat,

Now I knew why he has always have money to give me,

Those times he was being patience with me acting like a fool,

But here I am the greatest fool of all times,

I wept like a loser,

Sure I am.

Why didn’t I noticed it all along,

I can’t even stand him anymore.

It was too late to beg,

It was too late to change.

It was too late to chase.

I will beg him for forgiveness,

Probably he will accept me.

Besides he loves me,

I need to swim in his wealth and be the queen of his dynasty.
