That Nigerian Girl

I sit and think Long sad painful thoughts I wonder how long before it's all over The pain, hurt and suffering The lies, cheating and deceit They say life is a journey Of ups and downs How many more downs before an up?

Pain, hurt and suffering would end Or would it? At least my life would end At the end of my life Is the end of it all I have no fear for the end Because in the end It all ends...

Plz help me make it happen. I hold Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie in high esteem since the days of #Purple Hibiscus. And her speech/talk on TED concerning feminism is a must see. I am inspired by it till this day. I am a Feminist and I believe so much in girl power. I cannot stand lies and deceit...(literally breaks my heart). Honesty for me is key. If you want to get me anything...get it in BLACK colour. I'll appreciate it more *wink. Lol, except lipstick. Music....I mean, can't even explain. There is an undeniable love and chemistry between us both. I have 3 Mums...(please don't ask). You'll find me laughing a lot and I love to make others laugh too. I criticize a lot, and can
