The untold secrets to my love!





                  You. Yes you in the corner with your head down low. 
Are you serious? For real are you serious? You know how bad I want you yet you prefer I run after you. Hide and seek It seems. I mean how long do I have to subject my delicate heart to this game! Bearing in mind I am not one to play games like that.

             You have me writing a short poem for you, hoping to lure you my way. My dear success story I am eagerly waiting for your arrival. No. I am not patient any longer I would be lying If I said was.

            Sleepless nights have become my portion with thoughts of you reverberating so loud in my head. I lose track of time as I turn aimlessly in my bed only to wake up to the empty side of it,
 wondering when you will come my way! Where are you anyway?

              You ought to know. I want to be more than just an acquaintance because you and I make a perfect combination, not a cliché.  Far from it. Allow yourself to feel the touch of my soft hands against yours, as we take East Africa by storm. I promise I will be the best companion, no need to be afraid.

              Do not worry yourself with insecurities about my other ambitions. You will always take center stage in my life. I will be compelled to learn Swahili If I have to, just to have a stronger bond with you.  Trust me I am not lying.
    
              I know a lot of people disappoint you, say they cherish you, lie! Work harder for you, lie! My dear success story I will let my actions speak louder than my words because I don't what to have my cake and eat it too.  
Whatever that means!

              Let me lean on you, share with you my darkest secrets, take you on a tour of my life, as I shamefully justify my reasons for being an introvert. 
Tell you what I am about because I know I need you more than you need me. After  all. You are who you are. Success! A king or queen in your own narrative and I am just a loyal subject devoted to your cause.

       Until I am summoned in your
         Presence.  I remain yours truly
