Poem: God Told Me To Marry You

The first day we met
My words failed me
then i asked myself
where have you been?
Not just your beauty
Which iluminates my world
I craved also your love

I was weak and shy
for the loss of courage
laden with timidity
i picked up my cell
you were at the other end
Until you said "Hello!"

Are you there?
How is your day?
Have you eaten?
What are you wearing?
i could hear you smile
Yet, that got me shaky

What do u do?
I sleep for for a living
My liver failed me
What are u putting on?
The armor of God
What a savage response

when will you visit?
will you come to my crib?
what is your best colour?
Do you love Indian curls
oh! soemone help me
she is playing a mind game
her silence is golden

Do you like me?
Hello, can you hear me?
like a bullet ricochetting
You echoed with a dint of smile
What do you want from me?
I just want to be friends
maybe a little above platonic

We can be friends
but not as you want it
my heart beats for another
my day starts and ends with him
this broke my heart
But i was determined
to complete my misssion

Has he put a ring on it?
Does he discuss your careeer?
Has he introduced you to friends?
Does his mother know you?
Competition suddenly set it
and awakened the giant in me

For a moment
i was jealous
when you mentioned him
i felt like a spare tyre
while still soliloquizing
will she say "Yes"?

does he miss your absence?
do you know his next move?
are you a priority or an option?
does he call between work?
when you know you know
are you sure he is the one?

Ok, you know what?
Just one date
Oh my world!
she just gave a pass
who needs an hour?
to prove a point
to love till fade
are you a learner?

in the university of love
faculty of relationship
you will graduate summa cum laude
when you follow prnciples
especially by king Solomon
The wisest of all

until my day starts
and also ends with you
i will push and shove
Upon hills and mountains
'till you say "Yes"
I know i am the one
i just need you to see it
For God told me to marry you
