Died
Another day
Another week
Another month
Another year gone without a word from you
It was easy saying goodbye
I didn't know it'd hurt this way
I picture us holding hands on the streets again
Thought our love had hit the depth of oceans
It's like it had just got to the surface
Lying afloat and so light to sink. No way it would survive
The oil that flowed down to the waters suffocated it
That's how it died
Heartbreak

Under the shell
Under the shell
It's dark and hard to see
Our secrets are safe from the world
Unless it got cracked

Under the shell
Everything moves slowly
Our eyes take ages to blink
It's hard to define speed

Under the shell
We are protected from the outside
We never see what it's like
We only tell it's hot while stuck in sand
And cold when waves push us to the waters

Under the shell
Is beautiful like the galaxies in the sky
An Explorer fell in love with me
Overwhelmed with my beauty
Took the pearl and told me my name
I'm an oyster shell

Under the shell
Is where my heart was before you found me
Wild and not easy to tame
No one to call a friend.
My life was empty and almost ending
You couldn't watch me fall
Held my hand and supported my gait
You were proud of me when others weren't
That's the best someone has loved me
Best feeling ever now that I came out of my shell

Please let me
I'll come and go just like the wind. Leave no sign of my visit.
The leaves will hold the memory through the cold
but even that will die away when the sun comes.
I'll be stories told to those that never got a chance to see me .
Make you laugh if I had some humour in me.
Sometimes make you sad when you miss me.
The clock is a reminder that time keeps moving
Some day it could move on without me
I'll be gone but always there with you
I'll be watching from above and celebrate every little victory you make
Before all this happens, I wanna spend each day with you dearly and with no regret
Please let me!

I didn't stop loving you
I
stayed
with my love
when you  walked away
  and
promised to share it  again
when you  came back

You just never came back and it hurts
You are  that patient even with my empty promises.
I promised you heavens and not a fraction has come to your eyes.
I promised you warmth in the cold but sleep sweet and forget you are freezing.
Promised you roses everyday but all I do is emojis.
Promised to kiss you all the time but distance grew and it's wilder than before .
Promised every fancy thing that would bring out your dimples from the flesh but none of them came.
You still love without stopping.
What did I do to deserve you 😥

Hack
I wanna hack into her heart
Break all firewalls making her say no
Then put locks on every door of her heart
With a biometric device sensitive to only me

For her love, I will be selfish and share it with no one
Make her loved by only me

When it's her birthday
I'm talkative but crippled of words for they all seem heavy for my tongue to say .
It could be your beauty, your smile, your awesome character making me sink deeper into a wondering flow of love and emotions
I'm trapped on the rhythms of the love songs and making sure they play till the end for my unconditional love for you has to be revealed to the word.
God's greatest creation
Move me to your loving arms and cushion me from this evil world
Love me more like you do without fail
Serve me the biggest piece of cake like it's my birthday but  it's our birthday for this day brought you to my world and now we are one inseparable pair
We are like Siamese twins
Joined for life.
Like hand and glove made to fit.
Celebrate this day and may it be filled with bliss for I love to see you grow more and more and more.
Happy birthday darling

Color blind
I can't see black and white.
I see one color.
I see one race
One people of same blood and origin
No to racism

Dark clouds
Not
all
dark clouds
bring
the rains

Some  bring the storm
The future is unpredictable even with the promising signs
You just have to be ready and  embrace any situation that comes your way
Stand out and be ready

Awesome beauty
This beauty calls for praise and words of woe flood my mind
Even heavens descend at sight of your feline grace
The robins and sparrows sing wonderful symphonies to highest of pitch to free the world of the calamities that tend to take hold of the world
I'm drawn to you like a magnet and can't escape from these darling eyes that shine up my days
As I fall more into  your gravity, let me not forget the words of a song from my heart
A song that speaks of your "awesome beauty "

Friendship
Didn't need a crown to be king
Didn't need the practice of talent to be great
It suddenly bloomed and multiplied faster than cancer cells
A twist of faith to have fortune at our doors
Hunger didn't leave us with scars
We triumphed and became lords of victory
For brotherhood was that chain necklace we wore and showcased to the world
Trace my roots in the fertile lands where the sun rises from
Not the moon or the Mars but from the land on which my former highschool sits for it made us great
And now we are the living definition of greatness
Was it art? the calligraphy that flowed with the streams to the Nile
That perfected the virtues of life in us
Was it the winds that carried sweet melodies from the nightingales and made us dance like Michael Jackson
Was it the Math that added up every good thought and shadowed all evil that rained in mind
Or it was a love built on simple grounds
Needed no castles to be supreme
It was friendship and nothing more
Just thought that you should know
In Life, we meet new people that become our friends and then family.Everyone needs a friend

Happy valentine's day
In the silence of the leaves
Glamour of the shining moon
Melodies of the song birds that wake up the sun
The sweet flow of waves running down the ocean
My heart rings like a telephone
Waiting for a hello that's been unheard of in the recent of days
I'm hinged on strings of hope
That darkness could raid the earth but won't shadow our love
For even amongst the stars, it shines and sparkles like diamonds
I'm grateful to every letter of your name that writes a beautiful story of my life
Grateful that though I have little on me but with you the world is mine
Thankful for the glorious days you blessed with your smile
Hoping love for me still echoes in the middle of your chest
I haven't been the best for you but you have been my best
Haven't been all you deserve but somehow  you don't push me away
Let's make love in this nest we wove since the day love called us together and thrive like a king and queen of a palace yet to be built
Happy valentine's day❤

Stuck in a bubble
Stuck in a bubble
Carried away by the wind
Could move east to west
But love would still bring me to you
Oh, baby! It's getting hot
inside this bubble
it's about to blow up
My heart is beating so fast
like I'm scared of death and
Maybe I am
Maybe I am scared of breaking the oath
I made
of being by your side always
So I'll sing a song while in this bubble
One that you love
One that speaks about your beauty and golden heart
but I may not sing the chorus
for the bubble
will blow up
in
a
few seconds  
before I say the first verse
While I'm gone, don't forget about the boy that got stuck in a bubble
The magician put him in it because he was jealous and loved you just like I did
Maybe love goes to sacrifices
and our fate not to be together
and now one of us has to go

Love resume
Written so many letters
Moved many places
Had so many descriptions of one girl I wanted to have
From different cultures
From different colors
And sometimes felt I had a rainbow of options
Patience saved me having trials of how love tasted like
For I had none that would fit my love resume
Till I met her
So proud of having found love only once
And it was so sweet and true
Only one lover on my love resume

Broken pieces
We had that story that would win us an accolade of "best love "
We pushed it above to the skies, dressed  it in  a diamond frame and at sunrise, it could shine in the background of the sun
Was it an earthquake that shook the earth and broke the foundation on which this love had been built
Making the love fall from the sky and break leaving us with just pieces
Pieces that the winds blew to  different places
And now it feels like we shall never regain our lost glory.
Because the broken pieces haven't been found
True love can be hard to mend once broken
Jan 2020 · 92
Your face
Rivers don't run, they flow
The sun never burns, it shines
Diamonds don't glow, they sparkle
When the world thought nothing  would be more beautiful than the rainbow, your face proved them wrong
Jan 2020 · 95
Timetable
If loving had a timetable
Which days and time would be perfect.
Would we have breaks or it'd be love till the end
No waking up and no sleep
If loving had a timetable,  how would it be served
Jan 2020 · 55
Hurt proof
I failed to release a tear or emotion
I'm hurt proof
Pain won't absorb me again

Rewrite the stars
While I was laying on my bed
Waiting for sleep to come and  take me with it
Your name filled my mind from nowhere and then the a sweet memory flowed along with the cool night breeze
Thinking of everything we actually talk about
The smiles the jokes
The love within even though to you  its just friendship
Then read all chats like a heart broken soul but not  crying just laughing at us
What if we REWRITE THE STARS and become more than friends
Jan 2020 · 63
Lie to me
Lie to me
I'm such a fool.
I will fall for any lie you make
Jan 2020 · 54
Wrestling
I'm  wrestling with emotions
A battle between truth and lies
True love and the false one
I hope the pulse of heart lies in the poles of truth
I'm wrestling with morning feelings
Stolen from my sweet dream last night
And brought to light today
I'm wrestling with mad love over you
Jan 2020 · 78
Warrior
Don't let the worry fade ur smile away.
Don't let the guilt nor fear take your pride away
Stand firm
Strong and brave ready to fight like you were born to be.
Stand to always be a warrior
Quitters don't win
That's everyone's favorite slogan
And there's never a smooth path for us to walk in
A little resistance on the forces that hold you back will get you where you want to be so keep striving hard to make to the finishing line
Tomorrow will be yours
Jan 2020 · 76
Feelings
Feelings
Once present should spray along with the winds and travel like pollen to hearts that need to have a taste of true love

Your name
"Dear" sounds little.
"Sweetheart" sounds less
"Darling' sounds  better
"Your name "sounds the prettiest of them all

Our pair
I'm loving the weather
Loving the sun and the rain
Loving red and blue
Loving white and snow
But loving you and me even more
I'm so in love with our pair

Some truth about love
Love has no boundaries
No walls to break
And ain't attracted by mediocre things that are sight sought by our blind eyes
Dec 2019 · 99
Don't break it
If every night was like last night, I would never wish for heaven for in my dreams you brought heaven for me.

You gave me a smile I waited thousand years to have when you held my hand like we were saying goodbye and you didn't wanna let go

We walked shoulder to shoulder in company of each other, we could  afford a train but we wanted our feet to feel warm on the soft pebbles planted in our paths . I call them pearls of love

Your smile and beauty carried me away each moment and I could freeze and forget the lines and words you said seconds back .

I was living my dream life like it was my wedding day and then that kiss that reached for my lips gave it a fairytale happy ending before my alarm clock rang and  woke me up from my dream. I believe this dream was telling me something , to let my heart follow you.

I will give it to you like I did the first day we met but please don't break it
Dec 2019 · 1.4k
You do have it all
You have the warm arms for me to run to when cold
Have the voice of cheer to always drive the wind of joy in my lungs
Have that beautiful smile to loosen the frown that edges  on my face and breathe life in me
That line of perfection drawn from your lips, eyes, hips, curves
That color of light to fade away the shadows that lie in my paths
You do have it all
When she seems perfect and complete to you.
Words that fit her description will always flow
Never at any one time will you be speechless for her looks will always make your  tongue speak

Bae
Bae
I think of you as a miracle
A treasure I sought and found
A love that keeps hatching in the middle of my chest
Makes my heart race and days blessed
I would compliment you today and tomorrow and feel I didn't do enough for  I love being in your hair.
I love having you around me surrounding me like a circle or dome I can't escape
I love the peace you bring  remarkable and reknown to me
I love seeing you smile and watch us talk and laugh like we knew each other thousands of years ago
I love being a a collar and you being the shirt.
Love being the make up to draw the beauty lines to where they belong.
Back home I can sit comfortably and say "wow life blessed me more and more  because I got you "
Sometimes in my dream I call you BAE
When you have a crush on her, you need to tell  her the truth
Tell. her she means the world to you and never stop
These compliments do mean a lot to her
Dec 2019 · 76
Number one
Our old days are gone
Our old fame is lost
Prom king and queen  the sweetest memory we hold
I sing the songs we sang when I see photos of us
If the winds of change hadn't made the  love fade
Our love song would still play
And tell you how you've always been my number one
Dec 2019 · 112
It's paper
It's paper
Sealed all through
With an address on one side
An address with your name on it
On it is a message from me to you
This paper is available in many colors
But this one is special
With a photograph of you on it smiling in the sunset
It's a love letter on this piece of paper
In this envelope
It says how I do feel about you
Dec 2019 · 85
Heads or tails
If I tossed a coin today
Heads or tails
My heart will still race for you

Slave
My heart
Is
A
Slave

It carries
This heavy love
It has for you each and everyday
And it never complains
Whether the love comes back in return or taken for granted
It will break and still beat for you
Because for you, it chose to be a slave
Dec 2019 · 87
These words
A mouthful of words
All confessions of
Feelings for someone you love
And wanna walk  down the aisle with
To fulfill the promise you made to her when you were young
Before you tamed the young and conquered its wild
A promise to never break her heart
And love her each day of her life
These words
These confessions
These feelings
That depict the awesomeness of love in a sweet girl
Are all in my head and I can't get them out
Dec 2019 · 86
Just a hello
Days start with mornings
And similarly, true love starts with just having a conversation with a stranger on the streets
With just a hello
Dec 2019 · 71
Take me
Take me to a place
So beautiful like the stars
Shinning in the night
With a full moon
That makes all that's invisible visible
Roll up on me
Elegant and tender
And make me feel
The whole pleasure behind love
Dec 2019 · 133
Sad nights
Sad nights
In the luminesce of the moon that's shining just like the radiant sun
As you lay down in your cosy bed
Hoping the Christmas carols will run for your ears, the restless mosquitoes play the deejays with annoying melodies to the highest of pitch and never ending bites on skin
The lyrics don't change change
"This is the unexpected scourge you have received as welcome to village life"
Christmas in the village is an amazing one
A family reunion
A collection of smiles and moments that spark a flame
Dec 2019 · 378
Merry Christmas
Beautiful things come with beautiful people
unavoidable like temptations
for they bring love and togetherness
happiness and sharing
Beautiful things can make you languish
for they can be tantalizing today or tomorrow but when the time comes, they will be yours forever
Beautiful things hold the candles of joy for they curve perfectly like art like a key straight into a lock
Beautiful things are all that December brings
The snow man, the jingle bells, the mistletoes, Christmas trees and smiles that linger even in the fade of light for Christ is born
Merry Christmas

Take me back
Take me back
To the old times
When we went to the mountain side
And forgot about the  world behind
We were eleven but acting like grown ups
Traveling across the world like birds in the winter
We were dauntless together and had no fear
You were my greatest cheer
A sound resonance of joy
It's crazy I'm not funny
Somehow I made you laugh
Remember when we were learning the alphabet
The first letters we picked l, o, v, e
And that's how we made the word love
Sweet memories  flow like a river that never ends
Dec 2019 · 75
Love pilgrim
Wanna walk this road
Won't take a car, not a horse
Down the country side
Guided by my heart
On this love pilgrim I intend to take

Love and it's existence
The books speak of love
Like it does  exist
And well before I met you
I did not believe love ever existed
Dec 2019 · 113
Sights
Sights of our meeting place
Come bright when the stars light up the night
Same place we had our first kiss
When the world fell asleep
Oct 2019 · 103
Forgetful mind
I forgot the chorus to the song the angels above sang when we met
I forgot you like to listen to it before you fall asleep
And each time I try to perfect my voice, I sound like I can never sing for you
I forgot about the Christmas letter i sent to Santa asking for someone to cherish
Someone to love and someone to hold
Someone to always kiss and call my world
I forgot he brought you the following year when I did need you but I messed up for I never had the perfect words to say to you.
Words that would depict my true feelings of you.
Each time I see you walk on the streets
There's always a magma of words wanting to erupt and reach out to your ears just to remind you how much I love you
But then i always remember the forgetful mind i have . So I let you walk away
Oct 2019 · 125
Slave
I am a slave to your tongue
What it tells me to do, i do.
It told me not to love you but somehow i really do
Oct 2019 · 61
Good reason
I changed the tune of my trumpet
It's no longer the same sweet melody that cushioned your soul
For the winds of change brought a bitter taste that lingers on my tongue
I was everyone's skeleton before and now I'm my own
Life made me experience things that were never clear
We were younger and played together each day and now we are older and it's not the same
Growing up brought responsibilities that cut our bridges loose and now it's hard to talk and see each other as we did in the past
Maybe it's a test of life.
Shall we last or fall
I lost the spirit of desperation and learned to let things flow naturally for if the love or friendship is meant to be, I don't have to fight to make it stay
I will let them shine among the stars each night and if they  wither like roses do, I will know it is for a good reason
Growing usually *****, you have to sacrifice your friendship and family time just to fulfill your work commitments. It's sad I wish I never grew up and remained young
Oct 2019 · 108
Fool in love
When I think of red,  I think of roses
When I think of blue, I think of the beautiful skies and when I see them fade, I think of sunset. The skies turn gray, the night is here and its our  time to shine among the stars
When I think of perfect, your ways come true
No words depict my feelings for you. Only a fraction will do.
You define the world to me and mean more than the earthly treasures will ever do.
I'm drawn to you like a magnet for a place with you is home
And your voice orchestras the melody of happiness that lights up my life gives  me peace  and keeps me young
You are tailor made for me
A curve in an eight how you embrace me
They say nothing lasts forever
Have they heard of our love and how it will hold a candle even when our bodies lose this flesh and all that is left are bones
Have they seen  how we are such a match  for each other
I lay awake with wonderful thoughts of us living by each other's side each and every day and hope I'm not fooling myself and being a fool in love
Oct 2019 · 253
Love
Is it a laugh
Is it a cry
Is it the truth
Is it a lie
Is it peace
Is it war
All these guide me to one thing
That I have to fight for
Love

Valentine
If we
met
a thousand years
from now,
you
would still be
my
valentine
I'm humble as a dove
I've been that all my life
I deserve better
Still the world never considered my efforts
It gave me storms
that tore my life up
The grounds attempted to swallow me whole but never succeeded
Suicide was always a breath away
I was trapped in a world I never had rent for
The more I saw the petals fall from the flower that I called life, I more I felt less alive
Days came and left without a goodbye
Skies lit with radiant beautiful rays and gave a sign that my time to shine would soon come
I sold no copies of my music at my teenage age and I felt like someone forcing the music but now the chance to turn tables around was here
The time to claim my seat
The time to shine like a star
The day for my name to be tattooed on the face of the earth
The time for books to write
about my fame and how I got there
The time to live my dream life
The time for you to hear my story
And to never judge your future from your past
The time for my face to cheer
And that time is now

Everything i desire
There is so much to  talk about , you are just blind to see but not  deaf to hear the songs I dedicate to you  from the bone of soul to the flesh .
Beautiful and amazing songs that depict my feelings for you.
You are a one whole collection of life that lies seeded in the depth of my heart and makes it beat.
You are everything I desire and hope to get
