Money And Love (Love Story #1#) Poem by Prince Froggy Mwalimu

By the old oak tree,
Is where my heart was broken into “pieces”,
Holding my thumping heart,
I wished to erase my fears.

But my fears were all real,
Anita, moon of my life,
“Please say it’s not true”
“Please tell me you won’t marry him”
I exclaimed in tears.

There she plucked a leaf,
Bit the leaf and spat the apex,
She seemed to search for words,
“Why not swallow my words” I thought

The moon glimmered in her face,
As she took off my engagement ring,
“there, take it Mwangi” she said
“Why, please Anita “ I replied falling to my knees

“I just but love Rajun,
I and you were never meant to be,
You are the comet am the star,
You are the sea am the ocean,
We just don’t match Mwangi”
She said dropping the silver emboldened ring.

I reached for her silk woven dress,
Listened to my heart beat,
For inside her womb,
Was my true blood,
What would always connect us,

“it cries too inside there,
Feel it Anita,
I agree I roast maize,
Rajun is a rich tycoon’s minister son, ”
Soaking wet with tears I cried 65

Gently Anita let go of me,
Quietly she walked away to the waiting limousine
