DERENLE, LET’S FALL IN LOVE AGAIN – Flourish Joshua

DERENLE, LET’S FALL IN LOVE AGAIN.
Who fed you with the lies?
Derenle, who?
The lies stood on your head like lice
And ate up your sense of love for me.
Who fed you with the lies?
The lies that lays in-between US
Like a bridge of hatred; threatening
To keep us apart forever
Like a hay thread.
The lies that was like a machete.
Cutting the thing that bounds us together
Now things has fallen apart and
We’re no longer at ease.
Even when the sun rises,
I can no longer see half of the Yellow sun;
For the purple hibiscus you gave me
Had flown and become an Americanah.
I am left alone in the anthills of the Savannah
For Abiku is akin
To the trials of Bro. Jero.
Derenle, let’s fall in love again.
Let’s pick up this baton of Love
You’d long thrown away.
Let’s run it again with the strength of a fresh idea.
Aderenle! Remember the times
Your sun-kissed handsome skin
Radiated on my black beauty
And we were already looking alike.
Remember the times you promised
You’ll never leave me
Despite the fact that you were
Becoming a man of the people…
The lies were true,
But they weren’t real.
They were only meant to reel
Our love into history.
Aderenle mi !! Remember the times I drew you abreast
I gave you listening ears and
Was the only one who covered you
All the times you were cold.
Derenle, we can patch up this tear.
We can pick up this baton.
We can raise up this banner of love
And fall in love again.
