Bruises III: The Regret

I hear her crying

She is weeping

My God she is wailing

She is running 

From me or to me ,She needs help I suppose

This can't be a surprise from a rose

Is that blood on her clothes 

Is that rain on her face 

Why is she running away from my helping hands

She doesn't want my help or my offer for solace 

Let me wipe your tears, she tries to increase our distance 

Why are my pants down

Why is her blood on my foreskin

Why the white stains

Her eyes it rains

Oh it has happened again 

I did it again

I let my emotions get the better part of me 

You are innocent I know 

And only needed my help

How did I betray you like this 

How did I become this shadow

That takes away the joy of an innocent soul like you.

Was I not supposed to you lend a helping hand?

Why is it now that you are bleeding from my actions 

And crying from my touch

I am sorry

No worry a know 

Say sorry no di helep

Say ya smile no be na excuse

Da short close no be na excuse

Di mimbo no be na excuse

Say you cam ma house no be excuse 

For dis abuse 

Abeg no choose me 

Talk am so a no go di waka loose 

Speak out so I can pay for my wrong.

Report me so the weak can benefit from your courage

Abeg helep me

I am lost
