Mmeso Inspires: The Right One

Day after day,

I kept searching,

But no one seems to want me.

I stood alone while my friends flirt around with their lovers,

Then comes Ella’s proposal,

Followed by Bibi’s bridal shower,

And Anuri’s lavish wedding,

Yet I wallow in solitude,

It is an unfair world.

They all have their reasons for letting me go…

Frank complained that I was not frank with him,

Because I refused to finance his birthday,

Harry said I was too fat and refused to introduce me to his parents,

Few months later, he got married to a woman twice my size.

Irony of life!

He left without turning back.

I cried my self to stupor,

I refused to eat or drink,

And locked my self indoors.

I thought all hope was lost,

The next day Agbavunwa called to invite me for her wedding,

Did she know I was grieving?

I was the last man standing.

When Kene came into my life,

I ignored and rejected him,

I thought he was like others,

Even as he scramble for my attention,

I treated him shabbily,

But he remained still,

I was not moved,

Because I have been moved to tears countless times,

When he go on his knees and asked me to marry him,

I laughed silly at him,

But he persisted,

I began to wonder if he was crazy,

Until I realized I was the one who was actually crazy.

Kene came into my life to change the narrative,

I thought I was dreaming when he walked me down the aisle,

I broke down into tears of joy,

He is the right one for me.
