PIECES OF NONSENSE:
MY CINDERELLA
Tell me that this is not
just a feeling that will eventually go away
Tell me that meeting you
is part of my destiny and not just another way
Tell me that being black
is as good as white and that I should not be afraid
Tell me that I am still
a winner and I should not be bothered by what people say
Don’t tell me that –
because it’s all I want to hear you say
Tell me, when our eyes
locked at the theatre
For the first time and I
held on to that stare
Hoping that you felt the
same way somewhere
Inside you
I felt like our hearts
were pairing via blue tooth
And that this feeling we
would share me and you
(Even the skies know
it’s true)
So tell me, was my first
step the wrong call I made?
Or tell me if asking you
out was that all for me?
Because when we left the
vault
Under that sunshine we
walked
Stories of old we didn’t
talk
But we had our own
moments
Laughing at our own
silly nonsense
I thought you and me had
physics
Forget chemistry it’s
overrated
See even when I said
goodbye
You just walked away
without a hug…..damn!
Now I call you every day
and you don’t answer
I see you online in
'whatsapp' and I just wonder
If I send this text will
you be bothered to answer
Or should I just forget
you like I did my ex - Amina
But again my feelings
for you keep on gnawing deeper
Spreading all over me
like bushfire
Killing me softly like
cancer
If you don’t tell me
then I will tell you
I will tell you that I
think you like me too
And I know you hate me
because you know it’s true
And you hate yourself
too and that makes us two!
I will tell you that I
know you don’t believe in love at first sight
I also know you hate it
when you know it’s true because you’ve read Shakespeare’s art
You’ve read about
Anthony and Cleopatra, Othello, Romeo and Juliet
In all these, tragedy
was the fruit of true love
And you are afraid that
if you give in you might not have
What your heart craves.
But I tell you this; my
heart goes out to you
I tell you this; I won’t
let you go like the dove that flew
Away from Jesus’
shoulder into the heavens that are blue
I tell you this; I will
never let you wander away from my view
I tell you this from the
bottommost part of my heart and it’s true.
It’s true from the first
moment our eyes locked I knew it was you
It’s true that I want to
spend the rest of my life with you
It’s true that right now
right here
All I am asking is will
you be my Cinderella??
