The valley dug in between us has become narrow for such bus. Love found many ways to discuss to make me wuss, to make me wuss. My heart was found wanting a lot and where we stood kept growing hot. Our hands were free, they wouldn’t knot our souls will rot, our souls will rot […]

I will not want your wishes Nor your byes I know you care but take a rest Your tears will soon dry so you may see I’m long gone like a bullet from a long gun Look critically you’ll see my soul at the horizon On my first safest, swift, luggage-free ride through seven heavens […]

Dear God in heaven This is a prayer from a child who’s only seven I won’t choose candy over you, I’ll just choose candy and then I’ll choose you. If this gathering will take longer, Can there be food to quell this hunger? And if this happens again It’d be the right time to send […]

How did we end up like this, among heaps of stones selfish? I’m left with fragments of untrue truths, losing the face of completeness. They teach us how to give, but cut the fingers after they receive. How did you end up like this, wearing colors that conceal your shadow? Where are the colors of […]

You need not move mountains Uprooting it from its core I do not need Cupid and fountains Or seashells from the shore Don’t sail across oceans and seas Don’t bring me the moon from up above No flowers, no roses, no white doves No clichés at all, please We don’t have time to watch the […]

With you it was love and first sight Coating lust with gold , Singing songs in silence , Giving comfort to a sick soul at first. You were the beauty to my suicidal thoughts, A navigator to every slit and piercing , Affirming all my imaginations , Salting all my open wounds, Making me my […]

As these dreams sail on wheels of love Lord take control and make them move As you have done for my friend Sean Lord let me flourish like a bean Happy;for you are my own prove That faithfulness does make a grove For the man who believes to have- Achieved, someday that which he crave. […]

We carried it on our foreheads, our sheets didn’t tell the beds. Breath was on our rights and birthmark along we bore it with clay and spit. It only shone while we found the dark, hardly did we lose sight in the pit. We were humans marked with labels served to live to feed from […]

“Ake! Ake! Hurry up now! Do you want us to miss this? It will be like missing the coming of Jesus the day he’ll be sharing some of that gold from the street of heaven o!” Funto chuckled as her husband poured out his monologue. It won’t be the first or last time she has […]

Amongst people there are beasts With wings whiling in the mists Awaiting the curse to wear off Needing a beauty’s drop of love. Amongst people there are gods Idols of good, evil and all Those who foolishly defy the odds Forgetting we all must stand to fall.
