I didn't love you

Never did

Nay 

I was so much in love

With Acts and Scenes

The switches in between

The thrills

And the pride to show my acting skills

Oh, remember

The Lion and The Jewel

And me ,

The beautiful BELLE

How much enthrilling it felt

Sidi , the one whose pride swelled

The presence of her beauty felt

Oh, Soyinka

a great piece of art that was 

The humour , the taunt

The glory , the surrender

But for you

Poem

You felt so tiring

Like Ode to the ordinary

Like a mystery

Not found in a dictionary

But somehow along the line

I fell for you

You made me actually

Gradually. 

Unnoticeably. 

Softly

Thou beautiful pathetic pervert

You sang me beautiful heart-thought melodies

Making the  waist of my soul sway to thy rhythm 

Making my heart wander far away 

lost in your lines 

And my body completely absorbs the syncing beat 

Me filled with  all of YOU

You stole my heart

How ? Just how ?

That I fell this hard

Unsavingly hard

That pulling out seems a difficult or a NOPE option

And now 

I love you for being my heart thief
