After migrating to the country
Illegally, they met and form
Partnership. Soon got their papers
In the country
Will not allow you to
Leave me for a second
She told him, therefore if
You have it in mind
To leave me in future
Go now she reiterated
Let me make my solemn
Promise to you now
I will never leave
You not for a second
Where you die, I will
Die. He assured her.
A man of my word
Am I. your mouth has
Stated this clearly, you ain’t
Forced to say this
Neither are thee under some
Forms of drugs nor intoxicating
Always recall this when thee
Want to do something
When you want to do
Something that could bring about
Our separation in this land
She told him clearly.
After the straightening of their
Papers she won lottery and
They were living together
Happily wining and dining
They were enjoying themselves.
In their new country
Being integrated into the
Systems and culture of the country
To win more jackpot, they
They lost all they have
Gotten and started suffering
Sold their properties to offset debts
Because their ways of life
Have been on the high side
The little they have left
Was not enough for ‘em
Then he got acquainted with
A citizen of the country
And wanted to move to
Her apartment living with her
She was not happy with
This development, considered it
A slap on her face,
Breech of trust ‘n’ ‘greement
With this, decided on what
To do but did not know
Got hold of their papers
Burnt them all ‘fore his arrival
Called the police. When they
Arrived to their apartment, searched
The place discovered no paper
And they were repatriated
We have dine and wine
Together, we shall suffer together
I cannot allow you to enjoy
While I continue to suffer
This she told him when
They got back to their
Country when the man was
Seeking for means of returning
You can never get back
To that place you have
Blown up your chances
She emphatically stated to him
