I Found My Missing Rib
Nick Adegwe-Oshomah 1959 (Iyerekhu)
Like the soothing hearth of my home
Your beautiful warm embracing hands
Disarmed the wintry icy cold hands
Of age old loneliness that has been my home
In whose dreary dungeons I have roamed
My future union with you, none can ever put asunder
For today, I found my missing rib, as I looked into your eyes
I knew I have found my long lost sweetie pie
That will quench my life long battering hunger
Convincing me I will search for true love no longer.
