Loving You
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Loving You]
If loving you is a crime
I’ll become Boko Haram
Nigeria’s toughest foe at present,
Taking away sleep from the president.

“Soon they shall be stopped” she retorted.
“So your love’s not everlasting” she concluded

For you, I am as crazy
As Nigerians are for BlackBerry

“Then you have many lovers
And I don’t want to join the fighters”

My love for you shall be like Nigeria’s budget
That flies higher every year, like a jet

“Then it will be a victim of misappropriation
And corruption”

So what must I do
To win you?

“All I want is simplicity
And availability”
