34/Nigeria I am a writer, poet and a screenwriter who loves literary art.
Shackles on my feet The ******* of the past Thou held me out Piercing my heart with bitterness I tried to come undone Portraying the beauty of the future Wearing you like a cunning smile Setting ablaze a binding heart I let go Letting deep like a broken vase Pouring out it's flowery gaze Turning love astray Oh some foretelling Relieving bad memories Revealing the aches of oneself Attaching a Biography to pain Beautiful but broken A Potter's broken piece Stunning but broken Leading to the ways of no return Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

A Nameless Street
Fixating my eyes Stripping your beauty piece by piece That I may show thy beauty Beautiful maiden Among pleasantry ladies of May Dancing like an Arabian night Laying down by thy side Listening to the sounds of the night Wondering how my heart captured thy flower Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

Ella Mai
Sing me a sweet carol Twinkling sounds of happiness Upon merriments of joyous celebrations A time for joy A holiday season Old traditions new memories Glows on the trees Love all around Kisses under the mistletoe Thou gave us thy son On a manger he was born Our wishes came through A king came Special gifts he brought Oh what a delight Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

A Seasonal Delight
The sweeten of nature Giving life an edge Tasting paradise at its fullest Oh what a glorious sight An awakening to the beauty Of nature's pavilion Behold the blue skies Granting my eyes it's utmost splendour A view like never before Gracing my imagination Drawing the cloud's curtains Welcoming the god-crust of nature Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

Feminine Human
Exiting the blackness of the night Thou tiny mediocre awakes Arising with casual elegance Biding the night farewell Singing it's welcoming lullaby Pouring out it's gorgeous golden-blinding I feel it's presence Sending overpowering bright lights Bedazzling our minds Oh radiant one Thy golden fingers of sunlight I receive your relentless dappling Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

Have thou reached casa isolata? Shimmer of paradise it bestowed Beautiful lands it rested upon Sorroundings of fruitful clementine An empire of pride Casa isolata I hear the callings of thy chimes Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

Casa Isolata
Our husband Thou look in my eyes no more I reek of old wine Thy mouth spaketh But thou saith nothing I hear drums Ceremonial beatings Your smile I longed to behold The peepings of the crowds Your attire I longed to touch Favourite of thy bossom I know your heart Belongings of another Stories at the market square Thou findeth thy favourite Old clothes Thou look away Old heart Thou embrace no more Longing afresh a new favourite Welcome Our husband knows your heartbeat Preparations of thy entrance Our husband's favourite bossom Welcome, our new wine Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson

Quagmire-Oasis
The lighting from afar Near sight of hope Seeing an absurd vanity of believe O thou Golden gate Endearing truimph on fragmented victory Loud low-pitches Sending messages afloat miles Upon glittering luster of waves Telling the wind it's courage Professing life on Sea Corne de brume Welcome aboard our feeryboat

The Unstraightened Soldier
At the church of all saints Singing glorious tunes Hymns and harmonious voices The father, an altar he stood in front His passing Life if an exited fellow Can we say something? Say to the saints The tears of many Words much but little An ovation so small Ashes to ashes Keeping nothing in your remembrance He once stood here A man like God He jouryned with the saints Wait a minute His family speaks Tell them He once stood here Only to stand no more Did he perish? Wait a minute Did he perish? I said speak He had no vision The mantle perished long ago Did he wait for the saints? No, the morning after I see a congregation Mourning a death of old Clap for her speech He perished like a sunken treasure Was he not a king? Did he perish? Oh! A glorious exit He perished like a sunken treasure Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson
