My White Boy Friend Poem by Joyce wolayo

MY WHITE BOY FRIEND

My white boy friend brings mystery
He talks the language of love
But the language he speaks is forgotten
I understand the language of
His hugs around my body.

My white boy friend brings mystery
When he is angry he smashes into a car
Bump! He crushes onto a pavement in an accident
He makes me worry and
Worried sick about him
I wonder why I love him.

My white boy friend brings a lot of mystery
When I am angry he falls on one knee
And begs me not to be too annoyed
He promises to buy me gifts with kisses
And I am happy again.

But when he is angry
My white boy friend switches off
Like a car engine that won’t go anywhere
This makes me afraid and wonder
Why I love him so?

So I kept quite too and switched off
Like an engine that won’t go anywhere
Because my white boy friend
Is too mysterious sometimes.
