FOOLISHLY
I FOLLOWED HER
Confused and distracted by the crowd at times and though
I lost trail of her at some points, yet searching for her seemed more palatable
than settling for the rest.
Soon, I found her, tender skinned, adorable and
beautifully made. Then I loved and treasured her with the whole of my heart.
This one thing I never understood, the longer time we
spent together, the deeper she became. My quest unsatisfied, my goals un-reached
and confusion becomes the order of the day. Yet, giving up on her or forsaking
her has never been an option.
I was told she wasn’t my class, but I couldn’t stop
running after her because I knew that the reason she isn’t in my class is
because we studied under different tutors who taught us different things in
different class rooms. So, I migrated from my class to her classroom just so
that I could bridge the class gap, though I seemed foolish before those I left
in pursuit of her.
In order to fathom her indwelling beauty, I traded my
night rest for studies and deprived myself food for want of that which will
sustain her beauty. Quite unfortunate for me, most time she keeps me waiting
under a tree shade, she makes me desire her daily. Her silence made me hunger
more for her and her words were my source of inspiration.
I have followed her foolishly and will not forsake her, no
matter what friends and family may say. Not even for the beautiful ladies
clustering and pestering my life. I will rather kneel, begging and weeping than
let her slip away from my hands.
Continually following her seems demeaning and foolish
yet, in her is hidden wealth and long life. Loving her endeared me to her
parents and siblings. They became more like a family to me and this increased
the gossip among my friends.
One thing kept me glued to her, the words of a wise man.
In his words, he said love her, get her parent and forsake not her siblings. He
said to me “Do not forsake her and she will preserve you, love her and she will
keep you”. He also taught me exalt her because therein lies my promotion and to
embrace her daily if I must get honor. He also told me that she will give to my
head an ornament of grace and deliver to me a crown of glory.
Finally, he said to me ”take fast hold of her, do not
let her go: keep her; for she is your life”.
Let’s pause here while I solve this long puzzle and
answer the questions clustering your mind. “Am I the one he is talking about?
If not, then who is referring to? Who is she?... Click here to read more.
