Mmeso Inspires: When it is a must

I will keep on chasing you Isioma, until you say yes to me,

It is a must.

No one says no to me!

It is either a yes or a yes,

Do you know who I am?

Do you?

I’m the king of the seven hills,

Who fought with lions and play with cheetahs,

I’m the fire that burned the dangerous Egugu forest,

No one challenges me, Isioma.

Not even a weakling like you!

Thousands of women flock around me like bees after a honey comb,

But I chose you to be mine,

You should be glad!

And not walk around the village like a peacock,

You should know better, Isioma…

That I get whatever I want,

Don’t push me to the wall.

You better say yes to my proposal,

Or I will drive you out of this kingdom,

And allow your people wallow in agony,

How can a woman say no me?

Even the king of this kingdom worship me,

And the men bow before me,

You are playing with fire, Isioma.

Udefo or whatever you call yourself,

You better let me be.

I am not scared of the man who fought with lions and play with cheetahs but cowered before a woman,

Why are you trembling before me?

I am present but far from your reach,

I can never be yours Udefo!

I can not spend the rest of my beautiful life with a proud human being like you,

You have no regards for anyone,

And I don’t want to be a wife to a heartless being like you,

Stay away from me, Udefo!

You threaten to drive me out of the kingdom,

How wicked of you to think of such act,

If you continue with your threats,

I will be forced to lure you into my hut and stab you below,

I know you will fall for it, Udefo,

You are a slave to my love.

I have the right to make my own choices,

And you cannot frighten me with your threats,

Go after the women who you said flock around you like blind bees,

And stop following me around like a fool,

Away with you Udefo!
