People tell me I deserve the very best But mummy said be content Daddy said work hard until you succeed But Chinedu told me to see the beauty in imperfection Chibaby, nothing is perfect you see He said to me Even if things were perfect, we would never know you see Because chi baby we are not perfect We wouldn’t understand perfection you see People say I can be every thing I want But then mummy said something’s are wrong and some are right And daddy says I’m a girl I shouldn’t say somethings I went to Chinedu and told him Chinedu, I know the things I cant be I know the things I cant say What can I be? What should I say? And he smiled with his gap tooth and told me Chibaby, anything. And I’m screaming … Anything. Anything ? I’m drowning in nothingness. Chinedu, The definition of my existence is in such an empty word Where are the boundaries? Show me a box so I can fit in
