Talk is cheap
You say you love me
Make me see
Some say it is in the touch of a hand
Others the stroke of a chin
You say you care
Make me hear
Some say it’s in the spark
Borne out of the fusion of hearts
He said he loved me
He made me see
It’s more than the touch of a hand
Or the stroke of a chin
He decided to love me
Knowing that I might reject Him
Payment neither in cash nor kind
Rather in scarlet
He said he loved me
He made me hear
Of that price that he paid
A blood sacrifice; so dear
So if I my were to put my heart
On an auction stand
Give it to the highest bidder
I’d already know the winner
Yes he loves me
Unashamed was He
To pay the price
Over and above for me
Now I stand proud
I stand tall
Solely by that crimson price
Paid by the King of all
My name is Akinsola Olamide Tolulope. In chronological order, I am a daughter, student, believer, and sister. People are my number 1 passion. Other important facts: I am a selective foodie, a Jesus junkie, a doing-dreamer, a fine girl (*winks*) and of course proudly Yoruba.
Good food, good company, good fashion, great literature are all “bae” to me. Passions? Yes. They include People (as mentioned earlier), food , reading, SHOPPING!!!, and of course writing. I am currently studying economics at the University of Lagos.
