Granted Poem by Kolabomi Adeko

How she would smile
He would not reply
Now she is gone
He buys a gun

When she weeps
He sleeps
She walked out the door
For him to sleep no more

She needed attention
He showed no attention
She would not be back
Grief weighs him a sack

How could he be so blind
When she was O so kind
Now it is over
He wished he were a better lover

Well he took her for granted
And how she ranted
But now she stole away
And thus stole his day
