Save your tears for your next heart break
.
Kolade was my first love
My rainbow, oh my once true love
He came into my life not long after I lost my "ibale"
To brother Godwin our church choir master
Who called me his "tomato" and he my banana
But Kolade chased me away like a goat from a garden
He called a whore after he caught me kissing his best friend
And that was the end
.
Kunle came in very short after
He promised to put a calm to the tornado in my heart
We did introduction, but only to his half-brother
What we shared was the sweetest on earth
Until he saw me naked on his half-brother
.
Doctor Alade later chased away my tears
At the hospital after my last abortion
When he examined my nakedness without his flares
Love runs in my vein I felt like I was a nation
Till the day a woman with dangling breast called me "husband snatcher" paving
More gutters for my tears
.
But like sun you came, you tried up my tears
I swear it, you would be my bus stop
Life with you with long years
... So she said
Save your tears for your next heart break is now
