27/F/Nigeria IG: diobimma_ and diobimma. All shades of emotions.
I see my feet slowly walk away Against the will of my heart. It's moving at the command of my head Whose wailing I keep my sanity. Diobimma

Sanity
I wanted someone new One who would love my flaws And still not appear weak I was left lonely and sober I wished for a lover One who would wake me with roses And probly catch a grenade for me But I had my heart to mend I needed a friend With whom I could never pretend Help me see reality from illusion Then I found all three My friend is my new lover Diobimma

Friend
Had your lies wash me over Like a sluggish wave in the rain Beaten yet gave you direction.  Till there was nothing left of me.  Now I hear you say " You too selfish" It's Just on retail, wholesale on you. You're scared you didn't subdue me Cause I didn't put the blames on you It deprived you all rights to hurt me.  And that really hurts you till now. . You remember vividly last I bent before you I had gathered the pride you tried to shatter  Leaving resentment, jealousy and anger.  Cause I'm no disposable can, much less  To a loveless being as you Still wondering why I emit pure bliss Why I give love in exchange for nothing "You only give what you have" They say Doesn't mean you accept everything thrown at you.  Call it pride Call me boastful  But Self worth is the key word.

Self worth
They say I laugh alot But don't see the pain They say I'm easy going Myopic to see the struggle You're carefree most say Careless you mean to say? You've it all one implied Do I have you I replied . I'm simply moving in my pace Encroaching if be extra space I appreciate my every win And embrace my fallen knees Caress my scares draw a tattoo if cool . So I learnt to be grateful for others Laugh, tease, cry and celebrate theirs Be a real friend not some make believe You'd regret as long as you live . If I'm to let go of my principles for you Then you're not worth it anymore. Diobimma

Grandma insists the nation Is without an eye so I'm wondering Who leads her She says we have all We need for the big picture but can't simply Presit_then_see A proof that you're blind is clearly the fact that You can see Diobimma

Presidency
To one it means that someone To another, where happiness lies To papa, the air the neighborhood To my mama, it's with her children To me, it's here. Whatever it may be to you We all have something in common Our nostalgic return to it. . Diobimma

Home
I often wonder what rules In a world of penned liberty Yet louds it confinement You craved for freedom From the toxicity of your environ The universe responded Now you wail to be imprisoned . You're a prisoner to your fear And I'm nothing like you You've always been locked in With the doors wide open I'm a prisoner Not to fear or guilt. But to the world Birth and death has the key. I do not plan on escaping soon I'm a forest bird Tho confined to this space Call me phoenix Can never be locked in . Diobimma

Locked in
What I fear the most is loosing myself in someone. Giving them my air. I'm at verge of that. It leaves me breathless. It's pathetic trust me. I'm always open minded. Nobody wants that these days. People's words have hurt me Mine have reciprocated. I'm not perfect. But in cause to please who I love, I work towards perfection. That's not the life I want anymore. Even peace comes from within. I should First Love Myself. Yes you should Fly. I'm unapologetic for the people I've hurt. Even love hurts sometimes. I've had my share. It's the start of something new. I'm glad to share it with you.

When I promised you the world I didn't omit it's flaws So I nudge your awake To the reality of my world One beautifully flawed. Diobimma
