I AM A FALLEN HERO!!


Mama am sorry
Am sorry to the society
Sorry to those whose hopes were on me
I have failed terribly
I took advantage of the country's situation 
And went to visit my 'boyfriend'
I am now two in one
I am really growing fast
What will happen to my studies?
I wanted to be a nurse
What about my friends?
We planned of being entrepreneurs
It seems like my dreams are cut
I have to be a parent first
Before going back to class
I'll be behind my peers
I am currently drowning in tears

If only wishes were horses
I'd wish I never knew him
I'd wish I wasn't ripe for noticing
I'd wish to take back time
And take back covid to its origin
But who am I kidding?
My boyfriend said he loves me
And he would do no harm to ruin me
But now he's nowhere to be seen
He said he's not ready to be a daddy
And I should terminate my pregnancy

But where do I even start?
What if I follow as he says?
I'll have committed murder
An innocent foetus who means no harm
And who didn't ask to be sired 

What if I do as he says?
And then in the process my womb is destroyed
I'll never forgive myself
I can't stand to live with the guilt
Of killing a future leader
A future motivational speaker
Who'll tell the then generation to take care
Or else they'll end up like his/her mother

I'll have to take the bull by its horns
And put aside the longhorns
My so called boyfriend misled me first
I will not fall for his second trap
I will take care of my child
Even if it means to forever forget class
I'll make sure he/she never makes the same mistake
Because I've learnt my lesson hard
Experience is the best teacher
But I wish I experienced something better
Something that wouldn't have cut short my studies
Now I just have to be a young parent
A mother who's way underage
Please God give me the courage 
Wisdom....
To bring up my kid in the right way

Hello Papa
Please forgive my manners
I promised to never let you down
Now you say I've wasted your money on school fees
And all I did was entertain the so called boys
Your hard earned money has gone to waste
Am sorry I've broken our agreement 
Of studying hard and holding your hand in old age
I've learnt my lesson Papa
Don't hold a grudge against me
I can go back to class after this
And fulfill my promise
Only if you allow me
Papa please....
