Janet Mbugua is a tireless traveler who uses her platform to raise issues that are important to her.
The first is menstruation. She wants to eradicate the discrimination against girls. She is revealing a very personal thing in the interim.
Janet posted on Instagram about a highly romantic poem she once penned in which she declared her eternal love for an ex-boyfriend. The former Citizen TV presenter is emotional as she remembers the love poetry she has ever written for an ex-lover.
“I found some poetry I wrote, between 2005 and 2007… In fact, the document has over 30 poems! It’s taken me back in time; so many of them are about love, lost love, passion, and relationships…so now I’m trying to think back and figure out who I was then, what I was thinking, dealing with. Who I was with!
This is one of the few I’m posting as I figure out what to do with the rest 😬 Don’t laugh! Try not to 😃 I was simply expressing myself 🙂 And clearly letting go of lost love!
mafeelings#poetry#partsofme#love#loss,” she captioned her slight embarrassment.
And the poem was:
Funny I would think that two years ago,
I was the one thing you were certain of.
We were the heart of everything was a flirt,
You were gentle
I was the spoilt one
where you would spend
Funny, we thought we’d stay
Only to throw it all away
Strange that our paths crossed when I was up in arms
You were rational, I’d lost my mind
You were convinced that I was your kind
You talked and charmed me. I looked away
I knew I’d turn back and made you stay
Strange that we stood side by side
Only to find ourselves in this collide
Surreal, so surreal that it’s been two years
You moved on, I moved out, I stood alone, You fell in love
I remember everything
You’ve made it her world
Almost as if we never were
