Dear love
Dear love,

My kindred spirit
My better half
My better self
If words could say it all
I would write a book
Or confess my deep love for you in every song
For you are the calm after the storm
My unicorn for you are definitely a blessing to me
How can i have peace when you are suffering
It'll be like breaking a vow of sharing
Sharing the joy and the pain
Making your demons mine too
Knowing your scars are beautiful to me
I wish I could kiss away the pain
Let this kiss be the start of the healing
As I touch the body and let it dance to the music in my hands
Taking away the pain
And leaving you with the smile I crave
And forever cherish
If Saturday has been a sad song,
I'm gonna change the chorus
Such that Sunday finds you with the sexiest curve
The shape of your smile
I hope this voice lights up all the impulses to make your body better
That me talking is like me touching you
Don't forget I'm here with you
No Greek Wall will stand in between us
No one can shatter our beautiful dream
We are the creators and masters of our own paradise
Distance has made it hard for me to take care of you while you are sick but I hope these words buy me some time
Quick recovery loved one

Not lovers
Born in your adoration
Lost in your embrace
Like a coca cola you're  giving me happiness
Smiles all flooding and I feel I'm sinking in
I'm craving for you like i found me gold
For your face sparkles more like diamond
I feel my heart falling
Could it be gravity!
Could it be your magnetic field!
Lightning strikes me once and i wake up in a bed of roses laying next to you
Your breath resuscitates me back to life
And your soft tender touch massages my body and makes it feel alright.
The cool breeze suddenly travels across my body
I open my eyes and realize I'm all alone and that feeling cuts me deep
Why do you make me feel this way? I yell
I send my "I love you "message through the wind
And before it reaches you
I see you kissing another man
I get this feeling "I'll never be yours" but please stop having control over me.
Life made it easier for us to be strangers and not lovers.
I will simply remain your secret admirer.
Heartbreaking I should say

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

Sing me
Sing me that song you sang first time we locked eyes
The song that gave me butterflies
The song that made me believe true love existed not only in movies but also in real life

Sing me that song for it made me fall in love with you more
Through it I learned to dance
Through I got my first kiss
Through I got so wild

Sing me that song for when you are far away
I hear your voice calling out for me
I hear your whispers and
I feel your lips coming for mine

Sing me that song for I can't get over the fact that it's  still my ringtone

New day
Can you feel the sweet sun on your skin
Can you see its smile in the sky as it spreads out
Can you see the birds fly as well
Singing beautifully
Can you feel the morning you couldn't wait to wake up in from last night
Can you smell the sweet waft of morning coffee
Can you hear the noise in the city from car engines and welding machines
If you can
Be grateful
You have made it to a new day
Living in the tomorrow you promised yourself yesterday
It's a new day
Let's celebrate
Thank God for the gift of life in these pandemic times

Ex
Ex
A
cameo in my story

Hard to be wiped off

No matter how toxic she was
'cause some stains are bound to stick
There's goodness in someone even when they wronged you.
Sometimes you will remember and smile and be glad you at least crossed paths

Everything
Love was a story everyone told
A song everyone sang
A danger sign on the road and so when you saw it, you had to make a U-turn
And when I met you, it gave me everything
Loving you gave me everything I ever wished for

New direction
I don't want love for the wrong reasons
Just to get over you
I want to have a different taste of the champagne that love could pour me
I want to get drunk in love that I only say her name and not yours
I want to make new memories and  let go of ones we had
I don't want to fail her like I did with you
I want to make her the happiest girl in this world
So please get out of my head
For the space in my heart that once belonged to you is now filled with her and there no turning back
Moving on seems hard but I guess if you do, never look back
you move on for real

Make me a vampire
Compel me to love you more even when I don't love you less
My blood holds all the strength to help you lift this world in one hand
Kiss me with unusual fervour
On the lips ,on the neck
Let our bodies dance to the music of the irresistible touch
Let's live thousands of years and more
Not worrying about getting old for we still look younger in each other's eyes
Let's race with the wind and catch up with time so that it won't steal the beautiful moment at hand
Me and you
Bundle of joy
So make me a vampire too
When you ain't worried of each other's demons and embrace them as beautiful, then it's true love

Black woman
Ravishing Queen
Not in my once upon a time but at all times
Flies fearlessly like a butterfly
Ready to explore the world and never loses her true North
She's made a life for herself and her hands have been blessed with a midas touch
I've seen her cry before and she's made that go away
She's proven to be resilient and to be made of steel
She's a wonder woman trying to save the world even when she's lost everything
Kindness, care and empathy are her portion and I've had a sip
She's a tower of strength and lady of great wisdom
She's an African queen
Sometimes I think what I see is what I believe
I've seen beauty in African Queens
Our mothers and sisters
This is dedicated to them

Sweet ending
Love is as old as the sun
When we were young,
it was all about holding hands, wanting to be close to each other but truth is, we were blind to see that love was bringing us together.
Suddenly we became taller, you started getting hips and my voice got deeper.
We started writing love letters to those we smittened.
Along the way, we hurt one another and it helped us grow.
Here we are now, dating and traveling like two love birds.
What kept us going is patience, trust and when we suddenly understand what love figures are, we let wedding bells ring that beautiful moment
When I finally become yours and you now all mine

Sia
Sia
I'm in love with Sia
Each song she sings it's like she wrote it for me
I like the truth she puts out
I like that despite her sickness, it didn't prevent her from pushing on with her dreams
If she was a flower, my room would be a garden of flowers
She has a magical voice
I want my heart to always beat in unison with her music
For it gives me peace
Sia is a talented artist.
Her music is my solace sometimes

Phenomenal woman
Phenomenal woman
You don't abide by the laws of gravity
You have defied the dogma and exceeded your horizons
You are a mention of love, peace and sincerity
You are my greatest gift
You have turned my scars into beauty marks
You have shattered bridges that would bring me to my shame
Endured my bickering and shaped me for the future
With you around I didn't have to be the chagrined child
I didn't have to battle my insecurities
You taught me that mistakes are made by every human being
You taught me I could learn from mine
And seek righteously
See i haven't reached my pedestal
Because to me you have always been my idol
Happy women's day
Happy women's day to all the ladies that have been instrumental in our lives and seen us through thick and thin.
You deserve all that life can offer.
Enjoy this day

Her eyes
Beauty of the woman you love will always turn a dark grey sky into a rainbow one.
In her, you will see the calm beautiful waters of the Mediterranean sea
You will see the flames butterflies light up when they cuddle with roses.
The depth of her smile will be your remedy
And when you are out with your friends, you will be feel lucky to have her and say, "I don't need the night to see the stars, I just need her  eyes"

Sunflower
Sunflower
A shine of the Indian complexion from your skin
Like you were dipped in gold
And maybe that's why I find myself bedazzled by you
For you are truly an angel
Beautiful and intelligent
With a sultry smile enough to make the sun shine
And leave the sunflowers still beautiful
I guess you are my sunflower
With that brown soft skin
You smile same way its petals stretch out
From afar a glimpse of the field on which you grow leaves me falling in love with you more and more

Forever love
I like  calligraphy
It's more like how your voice sings to me
Beautiful and sweet
Is it honey and you have a bee hive in your voice box
Baby you got me locked up in an ice berg
What's strange I'm not freezing
This love warms me up
Oh God! I love how you make me
Happy and proud
I love you and will never stop
If love is something I'm catching its because you let me run after you
In the day and night
Flowers bloom and don't die
You are the crystal that's gonna purify my soul
Lay next to me baby mama
I'm yours and you are mine
Love you to the moon and back
It's forever love💕

BEST COUPLE
Streetlights will lead you to the road of love
Where you would want to dawdle by the river in the company of your lover
You will have her picture in your head even when you haven't met her yet in life
You will look into the sky and admire the stars and say these words
"Had we met, we'd be the fragrant smell of the roses.
We would be the taste of wine
Be the rhythm of the classics, soothing and healing.
Be the beautiful smile on a bride's   face on the day she says I do
We would be  the tale of the fairies
Be the finest blossom of happiness
We would be the bread and butter to **** the hunger.
We would be the BEST COUPLE  that ever lived"
Love starts with imaginations before turning into reality .
Never stop the chase when the love comes

Real lover
Real lover won't tell you you are beautiful. He will say my life is beautiful ever since I met you.

He will accept your faults and still call you perfect

He will call you every time for your voice gives him peace

He will introduce you to  his friends and family

He will love you every season

Nightingale
Her voice isn't the melody you wanna miss out on
There's life in it
It won't only leave you mesmerized but will make you crave for more
Every line rolls off her tongue with practiced ease
Its a song that keeps you awake in the night
One that would make you dance in the rain
A ballad you would dedicate to someone you love
This angel sings just like the  nightingale
I can't get enough of her voice

Movies
We met in the movies
She was the damsel in distress and I was superman
A character I chose to be all because I was foolishly in love at first sight
Beauty was the word that  embraced her face and made it beam like the sunset scenery of Miami beach.
I must confess
Her smile woke up the angels in my heart that frequently sang those beautiful serenades to attract her thoughts in my charming zone
I vowed to stand by her even in the heaviest storms and to warm her in the coldest seasons.
My chest often felt the heaviness of her head whenever she fell asleep
But the best part of the story is,
I chose to love her forever

Only a nightmare
A flinty gaze made me lose my poise so easily.
Never in life had I been such a dauntful gentleman when it came to approaching a lady I had eyes for.
I asked God for a blessing before I made a move.
She was spruced up in a Cinderella dress.
And wafts of her perfume made the romantics play in every corner of my head.
She was a fairy that blew my mind away.A lily among thorns when placed together with other ladies,one every hasty man would fall for . Suddenly the "mission impossible"track gave me that chimera of love.
I was only words away from asking her to be mine,when the sound of a bullet killed the silence.She fell laying on the floor.I screamed out loud.
Opened my eyes and it was only a nightmare.

Story of love
We learned to love and made the sky melt
Tried to kiss and gave the clouds tears
Played our favorite song for the  waters to dance to and  they gave us waves
We left the world for our love was bigger and filled the universe
And now we shine among the brightest stars

Heart break
I awoke from a peaceful somnolence with sparks of a beautiful dream giving me a beaming face.
Only to fall into the luminesce of a heart break
Guess I'm  right to say "every silver lining is followed by a cloud" and change it from "every cloud has a silver lining "

Worst regret
A tranquil soul won my heart without hesitation
Not a second would pass without thoughts  of her running in my mind
The remarkable bettle tones she sprayed on my body with her tender kisses
A wine so fine that still lingers my taste
I remember every beautiful moment
How you buttered my life and made it  sweet like honey.
I still put on the T-shirt you gave me on my 16th bd.
A photo of you and me is the memento that reminds me of how happy  we used to be .
I was such a **** to let you go.
Hell is the place that suits my actions
I'm so eager for judgment day to pay for all the pain I caused you
428 · Aug 2019
Her voice
Her voice isn't the melody you wanna miss out on
There's life in it
It won't only leave you mesmerized but will make you crave for more
Every line
Every breath in it
Its a serenade that keeps you awake in the night
A ballad you would dedicate to someone you love

Birthday poem
I'm brimming with happiness like I've seen the gate to heaven same way I felt the first time I saw you all because this day has finally come
Today ain't a day of reminiscing but one of celebration so i'll keep the memories to myself
I'll stick to seeing you dance, seeing you laugh and seeing you happy always
Happy birthday love
A year added in your life is a year added in mine
Live to forever be my miss Universe

Valentine flower
Valentine flower
All that every girl wants for valentine
But you are all that I want each day of my life
Like everything I desire in embedded in you
I hope you choose me over flowers
For unlike them, I'm here to last
But you are my valentine flower
Red like the roses
Beautiful like the lilies
And you are your own vase
Instead of water, I wanna pour my love unto you
That it sticks your roots firmly in the soil
Helps your branches rise
Keeps your petals always attractive
I wanna to be your dream come true
Your best defence
Your everyday inspiration
I want to help you with everything you plan to do
That you do it knowing you are not alone
That I'm always close whenever you need me
I can't promise to stop with the compliments and stares of you whenever you walk
For I know you are the one for me
I don't need to look any further, I just have to focus on what's in front of me
I wanna share everything of mine with you
My smiles and my pain for only you understands me better than anyone else
386 · Aug 2020
Yes
Yes
A beautiful sky beckons over you
And could come and kneel before you for the angel you are
Years seem easy to count like numbers but the good thing they keeping adding onto what you have
The Lord has seen you in all your endeavours
You have turned out to be the girl all men keeping vying for her attention
Grown to be someone words can't describe because you are amazing in all ways
Will a smile animate your face and make it beam like the sunrise
Will you stay pretty even when you turn grey
Will you have that beautiful heart to take us all in even with our annoying ways
Will you sound beautiful on the phone each time we talk
Will you give the world a beautiful child or even more
I hope the answer to all this is "YES"
Birthday poem to a friend

Being a man
Reality is scary
The beautiful dream is dying
Like all you had built was an imagination
And now you are no longer on medication
There are so many  tears to shed
Crying until your eyes dry
Wishing you had wings to fly
To escape into a world refined
One with no troubles
One you want to tell a story about
The  architect to give it the design it holds and deserves
But no it's your time to taste
The bitterness  of this world
To drink from the same river animals go to drink
To make a fire and get burnt by it
To hope and never get all you wish for
To stumble and fall but still get up
To unlock all those talents you didn't know you had
To live the life of a poor kid and know it's  no curse
To share the little you have
To know there is always a blessing that comes with giving
Now is the time to shuffle the cards
To mold yourself into one ready for anything
Joy, pain, sorrow, happiness
All lighting on different candles
You have the power to blow out those you don't need
Keep those that light up your life
Now is the time to take the stand of being a man
The story about life
Each bad situation is always a test
However we are masters of our fate and can brighten our sad days
330 · Dec 2019
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

One life
Why does a cat live nine lives
And I live just one
Why do problems follow me around not matter how far I run
Why does the storm come when my seas are calm
Why will you take my life when I'm only living once
Can we do away with ****** and live our lives without no terror

Mi amor
I like the dark with the moon shining on its mouth
Joy in her eyes that spark a melody of love in my heart
The shape of her curves
Feel of her touch that whisks me thousands of miles from this world
I like serenading her for she's mine and I like that we belong and are each other's missing pieces
I like staring at my black queen for she's gold that adds glamour to my life
Darling listen to the voice of the heart
You are  mi amor
One of those things you say to the person you love

Strength of a woman
Brimming with lachrymose does not define you as weak
Blades lacerating and make you bleed
The heat of the pain giving you distress
Like a lion, you fight it and don't let it own your body and make you numb
You are the strongest person I know
You are a Knight but you don't live by your sword
You live by your truth
Gone are the days when success of a woman was beyond the pale
When they said you couldn't
You stood with hands at akimbo and said "watch me do this"
It's not hard to notice the impeccable beauty and qualities you exhibit
Kindness and generosity
Such charisma is contagious
Did I tell you, your smile is Infectious
When you speak, the whole world listens
I believe in the bro code
Doesn't mean I will hurt a lady
Will always cheer you up on each and every victory
You repel the dogma and make your own rules
Each time you are around it feels like school
'Cause there's something new we learn from you
You that breathed a life in me
Will find a way for me
That's why I believe you are God's greatest creation
God's master piece
I have a seed growing called hope inside of me
For a better world
And it starts with letting you in
Something unquestionable is the strength of a woman
Happy women's day

To you
She was having a good time in heaven
When a tear dropped from both eyes of mine.
Anyone on earth would have caught these tears, stopped them from falling and perhaps given me a smile.
But nobody cared
For I was alien even in my own body and didn't know what made me feel so lonely.
I felt my heart was missing something
This dull expression killed the world like an epidemic disease and no one had its cure
I guess that's when an arrow reached out for her heart and caused her the same pain I was going through
She would have loved to teleport but had no magical powers
She would have loved to catch a flight but there were  no airports in heaven
Much as she is an angel, her wings weren't strong enough to fly
So the only way she'd make it to earth was living in the womb of an adorable being I refer to as her  mum and being born on that beautiful day
Happy birthday to the love of my life

September
Speak of the month in which I was born
On the third
Before the other days could steal my blessings
A month in which we put our feet in the sand for it's hot
The skies are beautiful with no darkening of the clouds
The stars to remind us how long we have to live while on earth
So many and no easy to count
A month I do love with my heart
I hope you'll be nice to me
Your child that adds a year today
Happy birthday to me

Dear Crush
Having you this close was the sweetest of feelings
I had a silence of expression but my voice was loud in my body language
It's why I hugged you tight and didn't want to let go
It's why I kept giggling at everything you said like it all came with humor
It's why I sat next to you
To feel your fragrance
To feel your breath on my neck
To hear your heartbeat
It's why I stare at those eyes at midnight for they steal the spotlight in the dark as the shiniest stars
After spending the day with your crush and you for once let her know how you feel

Fortune's call
Knock knock
Fortune knocked at my door one time
I let the stranger in without knowing his name
He said he had walked all through the town looking for me and almost gave up
Somehow he had my address and found me
We had a beautiful conversation
He looked tired and had a lot of luggage that I didn't know how he carried
It was definitely heavy
At first, I was scared that maybe he was carrying a bomb
He turned to my sight and told me "I have a package for you"
In it were blessings
Keys to rooms with everything I wished for
He then said his goodbye and left
I'm just glad I answered the door when the doorbell rang
Everything you desire will surely come to you one day
Just be hopeful and patient

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

The Ravishing Queens
Cynosure of all eyes
A sight for sore eyes
Coveted girl in the neighbourhood
There's a horde outside
Waiting for the exhibition of the diamond she owns
Beauty dripping on you like cream on a cone
That kind of glare that could make a man blind
A glint of hunger brimming in my eyes
A hunger for your love
I feel a scratch in my stomach
Could be butterflies and more
Like which world are you from
Your body is built like Rome
A round of applause when you walk
With the je ne sais quoi in your possession
You are a model and there's no doubt
Born into la dolce vita
You don't seem to have a scar
Mona Lisa of the present time
I sailed the world searching for you
Because I heard your dulcet tones
I fell into the waters
Are you a siren inviting me for hostage in your treasure nest
Hollywood stars in the flash of the cameras
Smiles beckoning and taming my wild heart
Do you have the midas touch?
You're glittering like gold
My solicitude for you is because I love you
That's the deepest secret in my heart
I've failed to pen down my emotions
Scared they could tear me into pieces
When you walk away from me
I may not hide my dismay
So I'll become an introvert till I heal from the pain
She embraced me with remorse in her eyes
With emollient words in her whispers
Nibble on my ears till the frown faded
Like Hansel and Gretel we've escaped from the witch's house before
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss like Romeo told Juliet
A reverie about The Ravishing Queens in our lives
Enchanted by you like I'm under a spell
Maybe it's the music giving me this epiphany
I'm hoping it's true love not an infatuation
Life is full of miracles
Miracles of the successes
But those people we meet in life and make it worth living stand out to be more of miracles
Ravishing Queens are our mothers, our sisters, our wives, our aunties and our daughters
Maybe today my Ravishing Queen would be a girlfriend
241 · Mar 2021
Still the one
Eyes collide
Feelings multiply
On the gold coast we met
Like she was the best jewellery ever made
She was proof that the beauty tribe wasn't extinct
Somehow I knew I would find her
When I asked the mirror on the wall
Who my better half would be
She was just as I imagined
Scintillating  mellifluous voice that etched with the wind
Brown eyes that held her innocent spirit
Unapologetic exquisite looks marvelled from heavenly soils
Six feet tall with a voluptuous figure
I was hoping my feelings were perceptible and could resonate in her soul
Guess I was too late
She was already taken before I took my first step
Memories of her linger on
I still worship her for she's still the goddess of beauty
One not even Mona Lisa could match
I'm afraid I haven't moved on
She's still the one I love
Arao Kay Ruth
This was for you

Feelings
Do feelings spike up like pressure in a gas tank
Do they become a bomb and sometimes explode
Or someone is always there to detonate them before they do
Are they that harsh to take my life to a grave
And leave me cursing forever
Are they meant to hurt in the first place when expectations go blind
Or they are just another episode of illusions we we can't escape
These questions multiply especially when you experience them for the first time
You find yourself in a place where you are desperate to find out about being in love
Sometimes when things go wrong and you end up hurt, these questions still come alive and you will vow never to trust again
It's a matter of time after you have made peace, pick every broken piece of you that you decide whether to move on and love again or still hold your break from a relationship
239 · Aug 2018
First love
I was blind when it came to ladies  till her beauty gave me eyes
Had no taste for music till I heard her voice
Had no word for sweet till i felt her kisses
Love brought us close and gave us wings to fly and explore the world to the fullest
I was her Romeo and she was my Juliet
Her arms were my only embrace and comfort is all I felt when I held her hands
It was a love so magical
I'd do anything to make it last even when roses died in the winter
Before jealousy and greed broke in and tore it apart
I look in the mirror and still see your shadow lost in mine and cry
Cause all I have now is pages of the story we wrote together and named it our first love
233 · Oct 2019
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

Keep going
Emmanuel
God is with us
And he's never left us
Your birth was proof to that covenant
A handsome boy born to beautiful parents whose prayers were answered
Grew up with adoration for art
And started drawing the super heroes in the comic books
Like you pictured yourself a superhero one day
You made friends and played football
Learned to play the guitar and wrote some songs
Gave the world all it needed to feel alive
And that was your golden smile
Your ambitions are still strong
You hold onto the childhood promises you made to yourself
To make the world a better place
The world is waiting for you to take the step
Just don't look back when you start
This was for my boy Emmanuel
Who has big dreams abd wants to make the world a better place
