21/F/Nigeria I'm a Model and Writer from Nigeria, who's super obsessed with books and music.
Will my heart ever stop feeling like this when I think about you? Will it ever become stone cold at the mention of your name? Will this sadness and pain ever cease to exist? Your smile used to light up my world Now all it does is remind me, That I'm not your world Your arms used to be my safe haven, I love how you held me close Now all your arms does is remind me, That they'll never wrap themselves around me again I used to think we were meant for each other, I found the courage and told you so, But you took my love and threw it back in my face. I became a player in a game I wasn't even aware of With you as the refree, Handing me the green and red card at whim I used to ask the universe a question Will I ever be able to call you mine? And each time the universe was always silent, Now I realise, the answer was in her silence. © Annabelle

Unrequited Love
I've seen you smile with pain in your heart Watched you fall, Crash to the bottom And crawl your way back to the top You're stronger than you think Every day is a new beginning, A new page, a clean slate A chance begin anew, start afresh, To get it right I want you to taste life like it's new Let the sun remind you That life is beautiful every day Let the rainbow bring colours of laughter to you Embrace the gift of life Cherish the blessings that guides you And may you only know Hope that makes you dream Failure that brings you success, Success that brings you joy Friends that makes you laugh Passion that makes you live And love that makes you love more.

Dear Self
The little deity that demands to be worshiped It fills your soul with it's potent fragrance Kings and queens are brought to their knees By this little deity The purest of souls becomes the darkest abyss Controlled and empowered for its purpose Breaking free is not an option Underestimate not the power of this deity This deity relishes the torment it gives Playing on weaknesses Poking and provoking A volcanic eruption For this spontaneous deity Comes and goes at whim In uncontrollable bouts Preying on it's unsuspecting victims Inside its shrine weapons are created Killing and destroying Like a fire breathing dragon Consuming all in it's path When this deity is done Regrets and emptiness are left in its wake With you crumbling to your knees The extent of damages unfolds.
