Poem
I once had a beautiful life or so I thought, a beautiful, perfect lady or so I imagined, for me she was my world, for her it was my wealth or nothing, how contrasting these two weighing scales were. I was a well established banker who had everything going on well for him, I guess heart was deceived by the love part, little did I know that my life will in a split second be destroyed to pieces, shattered like precious diamonds, it was the matters of the heart. My fiancee's objective to steal everything I had and run away was the shocking discovery that broke my heart to pieces as I stood at the door and overheard her conversation with her supposed lover who together had planned to be "Robin hoods" but in the wrong fashion, after the conversation, sge turned around and was shocked at my presence like a smooth criminal who had been caught, I saud those three words, I had never imagined to say "leave my house" and that was that, the door to finding love again was closed for me, I devoted everything to my work, I vowed never to enter a relationship again due this past experience that came my way. On a sunny Sunday afternoon, on my way from church, another bright new week was in store for me until an unfortunate incident happened, a lady in an attempt to cross the road collapsed all of a sudden and seemed to vomitting, epilepsy was the first thing that came to mind, with a heart full of panic and concern, I rushed to pick her up to a hospital. The doctor stablized her, she had a daughter, Angel was her name, she was 10 years of age,Emerald was the lady's name, Emerald had no fanily member around, I decide to take her and Angel to my house and employed a doctor to work on her treatment, I felt a special connection with her that drew me closer. Months grew by like seedlings and my love for consumed me and I confessed it to her, she also felt the same way. She was so humble, with all the kind attributes of a lady, I never cared about her condition preventing me from spending the rest of my life with her, Angel and I also firmed a special bond, which led to her calling me "daddy", those words meant the world to me. The tough times approached when her condition got worse, I prayed steadily for her to get better, I had faith that a miracle would happen and she would receive healing from the lord, then one day, I checked up on Emerald and lo and behold there she was, completely better, not experiencing any signs of epilepsy, Angel joined , and and a family we begun.
