Insecure: Written Originally by Jennifer Soh Li Wen, 29th June 2011, Wednesday, 10:28 p.m.-11:06 p.m.
A lady with charisma,
That’s who I am;
I partner with my best friend, Fatima,
Together with our good friend, Pam.
We started a company,
Many years indeed;
We make business successfully,
We prioritize every client’s need.
Both Fatima and Pam are already married,
I’m the one who’s left single;
Both told me financially I’ve succeed,
It’s time to look for a man to mingle.
At my age I admit it’s time,
I met a guy who suits my style;
He knows how to rhyme,
His collection of poems for me is now a pile.
We got together and I love him so,
Time passes by and he starts saying no;
To all my requests to date more often,
He reasons that his time is taken.
I made the effort but he’s not cooperating,
Each time I comfort myself wearing bling bling;
He told me before his love is pure,
Now I’m feeling very insecure.
He says he’s busy,
He apologizes for not dating me;
I found out his life is messy,
But he can’t be as busy as a honey bee.
How come he never thought of me?
What am I to him?
Where is this relationship going?
Why does he have to be king?
I haven’t contacted him for a week,
Finally he called me;
I heard his voice and felt so weak,
My heart speechlessly melted witnessing what I see.
He asked me to look at the sky,
He was piloting up so high;
All this while he worked so hard,
Just to say I’m in his heart.
I felt so touched I shed tears,
Now I no longer have fears;
He used his time to make a proposal,
I answered yes with no refusal.
Both Fatima and Pam are happy I joined the club,
Now we’re three hot mommas;
Even though our company runs actively like hub,
We’re so happy taking care of our children each in their pajamas.
