NIGHT AGONY BY ABISOLA ADEOYE

 I'm tired of this off and on

Sometimes, I feel like I'm forcing it

Could it be wrong to let my emotions run?

I need to know what to do with this bit

Most nights, I'm hit by a wave of self-consciousness

I feel so inadequate 

Could it be that he doesn't see my prettiness?

What can I do to be more up to his taste?

I think I try all my best

But it seems it's always wrong

I feel alone like a bird that has left its nest

If this is what people call love, then I don't want a part of it

You forget my day but remember hers

I feel like I'm chasing after you

I feel surrounded by bars

Someone get me out of this doom!

What do I have to do to please you?

What do I have to do to get it right?

Remember, I was once your boo

Now, I fear you are no longer my light.

Why do I have to fight for everything?

I thought I served my time already

I guess I was just deluding myself

Thinking I was off the hook.
