You Were Not My Problem Poem by Beloved Adejuyigbe

You're not the rainbows,
You're not the stars,
You're not the rain that drips into my bowl,
You're not the scandal in my scars,
You're not the moon,
You're not my fortune,
You're not the sun that rises at noon,
You're not my reggae's fine tune.

You're not the ultimate prize,
You are totally not my type,
Look at the waging size,
You really don't worth the hype,
You're just a mere distraction,
Greasing the hones of my grieve
You're not my attraction
You're just a fraction, I heave.

How could you be my problem?
When you're not the stones in my diamonds,
You're not the crystal in my gem.
And you are definitely not the Orion,
That tails my lopsided gait through life,
You're definitely not the ocean that raves,
You're not even my drive to thrive,
You're definitely not the lass in my cave.
