How To Be Happy: The Insight Of The Unbroken If you find the key to the equation let me know cause it's been a while since I've felt a heart quake. And there's nothing wrong with me. I haven't felt any hurt in weeks, months, years. I'm as peaceful as I can ever be, and yet even now you elude me. The only thing I've ever wanted is the thing to desert me completely. I have been grateful for many things. As I've been reminded of tonight, I know what it feels like to be wanted.…
The Art Of Lovemaking The least you can do Is make...love To me on the one day we're alone No photographs, no phones Silence accompanied by occasional moans Temptation pulling you close Captivated by the dress I chose Ease of access, straps off, what's next A meeting we should've had We're the in-flight movie they'll never forget Feel my blood running, my heart racing Tongues fighting; fingers scraping Till the bomb within goes boom We made...art The least you can do
Full Blooded I was born the day the sky went numb like it was fighting fate, or Showing the world my entrance to it The thunder that announced my presence trailed me like a cape as I walked in Arm in arm with a shawl of clouds; my shoulders bare, a regal neck Or maybe that's just my stature Power imbued into every pearl that covets my throat They hum along with every stroke Like the Harp, I'd pull the twenty-sixth Where dimensions would bend to my unstable whim To wreck what…
Family By Blood, Pain & Sacrifices I've known this girl for five years. And the things we have been through are enough for four tragedies and a sordid book. A past we both share as I'm sure you must've surmised. The scars on her neck near identical to the "love bites" on mine. I could've called them hickeys but that would be an insult to his loving memory. The man who loved me more and more from his seed. Gave me more and more of what I'd never need. Made me into something I…
Explorations I've sort of been in this experimental, revelatory, exploratory phase in my life where I just do what I want cause I want to and damn the consequences. I also wait and listen like a wild animal in the jungle, eager for it's next meal. I'm a hunter now doesn't deny the truth of the days I was hunted. It just means I decided to be the viper rather than the subject of the poison. It means I'm growing, proof I'm not where I've been. That I'm actually trying to be…
Lovelorn I listen to quite a bit of music from different places, different genres. It keeps me connected to the world. Keeps me grounded on the days I feel I'll fall off. I listen to music that calms my soul, music that makes me jump on the bed, beats that make me rock n roll. Listen to Why Don't We's whole discography and you'd get the idea. They're my current favourite band (and I never even pick favourites!) Okay,okay Seriously I've been feeling the worst of it. The…
Shorty Story 1: The Cellmate "Misbehaving again, aren't we? You've been here mere meeks and you're already a regular in solitary. You think you'll last the year but the guards are keeping an eye on you. You might just have an accident soon. It's been difficult without you this time. Four weeks! I thought you were meant to keep your head down. Keep being notorious and it's more than your life you'll be fighting for. They have reach. For God's sake don't you have any family?…
Everything You Own I want to steal Everything you own Fingers shuffling in darkness Breath stolen; you're senseless I assure you this won't be easy So wait till you're ready Then take me; hard While I pull all strings And shuffle around I bag many tricks This is my insignia I called the storm Let me unlock Your naked soul And take it all Everything you own
Quotes From My All Time Favourites Whenever I feel lost or tired I start going back to old books I'd already read and reading quotes, excerpts from them. They teach me so much, remind me that others have faced loss and that there is still so much to live for. Weekly I will take a book at a time and show you all these treasures of mine. Hopefully you can learn something too. First up is my favourite book of all time. The Throne Of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. Well then;…
We Call Them The Deadly Sins Once upon an age, existed peace in waves Except for all those fancy blokes who hid upon the stage Roving round the world they uncovered the secret to their cage A blissful nook of undoings as seven carved its name These people odd as they might seem were blinded not with Rage Greed and Gluttony crafted a lens of beauty in selfish aims Sloth paved way for Envy's colours Not for green what other did she gain? Pride made one not sad not undone But…
Frankenstein's Monster Autobiography of the almost prodigy Don't freak out just yet She's not here to rescue me I'm kinda, sorta dead Actually my ability to feel is falling short I am doomed and she can't save me My guardian angel and she doesn't even work Or I'm probably too far gone Love is a storm not it's calm You can't save the boy that was veiled I had the child hidden I became their worst nightmare But Frankenstein was a she And she was my venom She became my revival…
Wildfire Tell me the story of the Fire Breathing Bitch Queen The one who cleaved through Morath's forces unseen The same who plundered her enemies from an iron coffin And stole from sarcophagi without any other option Who'd face a whore called Maeve Who lied to all in sight Manipulated even her King For she was nothing but a Valg Queen This is the queen to whom others would bow Knees scraping for months or however long she'd allow Thought she would not accept And cleave her…
Poetic Justice To My Feelings So I have been going through this thing Where I stop hiding the person that I am Accept every inch of me The good, the bad, the crazy The annoying, the mad, the lazy The toxic, the lovesick and the sad part I don't let anyone see I'm letting go now and I hope if he sees it he'll be proud I pray this doesn't lead to a straight jacket or something more profound Everyday that I hide I feel I like a part of me also dies So this is me Listen…

Unloved You'll always wonder how long it takes to be misunderstood Always watching others thinking you're no damn good No happiness will worship you or find your heart and save Who will take this ache away and trust your judgement everyday? Did you not reciprocate or did you lay there like a lake? Did you not give second chances? Did you drag him all the way? Will you end up alone? Unloved. Unloved. Will you end up alone... No trust? Nope, cursed.
Love In Fear I might have said Love is a joke And you a jester Stay away, for I am a tempest And these are Rocky seas Unsure footing I made you believe I wanted to say Don't let me go I say many things And yes I'm cold But you might be My only hope So if you do go Where do I lay my head What do I become?
The Kill Streak Looking not at the mirror but through it Finding a way to stay and not use it Ghastly illusions do nothing but invade my senses Thinking I will bow to those horrible excuses for instance Dressing me as red nose will not delude them This is a house of mirrors and not a blue inn We serve frosted heartcakes and well grilled genitals We have a protein shake made of kidney sentinels The eyeball dumplings are amazing Hope I'm not scaring you too much or driving you…
4th January 2021 Hello dear friend, It's been a while. I know you're curious about my whereabouts and I assure you all questions will be answered in due time; but for now I need to get something off my chest. I made a friend. Someone I adore. Someone I cannot help but love. I haven't told them yet. For you see, it is not a romantic kind of love, which makes it infinitely more dangerous. To take someone as family after I have suffered this much is to be burned alive... You…
What I Like To Call "Ye Ole English" With the entrance of new television show Bridgerton to the silver screens, my mind has been a bit...distracted. By ofcourse one thing only; the language used within. High fashion of an era, women with nothing more to do than change linens and gossip daily, debutantes the perfect image of innocence (for a couple of vultures at each others' throats) and their mothers or I should say "Mamas" a pack of hellhounds shepherding them to their…
Greatest Of Bonds Think about this for a second What if they dropped off the bombs in the right places What if the people who died instead were politicians What if I could change the world with a single decision And y'all never had to fight a damn thing Artificial intelligence, next generation What if I cured world poverty Would y'all be satisfied? What if I gave all endangered species a home Would you help keep them alive? What if I stalled global warming just to give us a…
From The One Who Has Been Denied Love I want to escape with you Away from everyone else Live in the sort of forest That births love itself When the day is over; nightfall Lie with me beneath the sky And paint my skin with kisses While I take over your thoughts Stay with me when you can If you leave, I'll be dust If I leave, hurry and move on After all Your happiness is my only want
Old Ways There was a time When I couldn't feel Aware of my liberty When others were tied To sensibilities But now I become prisoner To my emotion at last I feel more than I should Which is impending disaster As I've always seen too much So the gift becomes the curse What happens when logic runs out And I become a lovestruck Idiot like everyone else
December 31st I bring me To new year's eve Throw away 'em bad things Carry all the valuable and amusing Try to appreciate the progress I've made Defend my friends, family and kill the rest off Listen to what strangers think of me less this decade Forge this steel into something so powerful as to be immortal I walk into the next era stronger than I have ever been Gift others the same wisdom that I was given And think of more positives if I can spare Take a risk I normally…
New Year,Old Me I can't possibly be the only one filled with a sense of foreboding for the coming year. The last twelve months have done quite a number on us. Some of us are afraid, others grieving. Some of us live in fear when we wake in the morning what we'll find in the evening. A lot of us are doing the best we can. We have to try even harder though. Survival is about the only thing humans are good at. Don't get me wrong. We're kind, selfless, intelligent; and sometimes…
Creation Myth Of The Hausa Tribe Creation Myth of The Hausa Tribe According to the Girgam, the Daura Emirate was established in 2,000BC and it all began from Canaan when the people travelled and settled in Daura. A man called Bayajidda arrived from Baghdad (who is the main figure of the Bayajidda legend). According to a great scholar from the University of Ilorin Lawal Michael, Bayajidda’s name was not initially Bayajidda. Lawal said his real name was Abu Yazid and when he…
Cast In Stone The irony of this I was just talking about that How I wanted a lover or something like that How a husband was a jailer or something like that How if I went to prison I wouldn't find my way back The irony of this They just admitted the truth seconds ago He doesn't care if I smile or scowl you know He don't care if he's fulfilled his duty you know He's more concerned with his need but then it's a man's world The irony of this I will rant for as long as I can But…
The Stalker He found me at that unholy hour When most criminals have their staff meetings I walked by without a glance I noticed not one of the admirers I was much too busy trying to hold onto the groceries in my arms I am much obliged but this isn't a ghost story; I have no charms I don't know what it is to be in love and free I don't even know what it is to be me For that reason alone, you are better off with another I spend my days writing suicide under the covers What do…
Finding Love To tie the love knot Give cupid a healthy bonus I'll need more than a face carved from stone Such charm as to leave me stunned Words that leave me blushing days after they're uttered Lust of the sensual sort as to cause shivers Love so pure it needed no filter Utter peace, the likes of which I've seen seldom Care taken to keep a smile on my face Protection when I thought chivalry dead Do you really think you can give me all that? If not, stop chasing this gem…
Uncut I mingle with my demons They're the only ones I talk to But I'm also a freelance journalist Scribbling the dangerous thoughts They don't dare to And if I die before thirty-two Either my adversaries got to me Or yours decided I knew too much To be left to my devices And my funeral would be empty For y'all never loved me And less than ten people will care But then again They're the only family I ever had
Series Review: Legend Of The Blue Sea I'm watching this amazing show and I don't have anyone to talk to about it. It's kdrama and I come from a place where it's highly ridiculed. The few that I know who watch aren't exactly friends of mine. My best friend is AWOL right now so it seems this will have to do. Who knows, I might pick up a few lads here too. Back to the main though. It's called Legend Of The Sea, about a mermaid who fell in love with a man onshore (sounds…
