Can i ever
find you in
the stars or
your love in
the rivers that
constantly flows
and meandering
following its path
and destiny
but never stops
for anyone.
Can i find
constant and consistent
love in this fickle
heart that never
stops beating.
When will this
breeze that rushes
past me ever stops
to wait for me,
maybe love is
hidden within
your speed.
How can i
ever catch up
with the spirit
in the air
or hold it
within my palm,
maybe love can
stop and just
for a moment
embrace my being.
How is it
that my optical
eyes can not
behold the things
of the heart,
yet i can
feel the
eternal presence
of it's breathe
pounding within
as if it
wants to burst out
into the open
like the ocean tide
that will later
finally abates.
Maybe love is
just a fleeting
illusion that is
better take in
like the air
into the lungs
just to live
from moment to moment.
If you ever
find it's hiding
place would you
please tell
love I'm also
looking and waiting.

Love is not
bad in itself,
neither am i,
for what i
feel inside is
of love,
pure and divine
in itself.
Is it that
am not so
good enough
to be loved
or love to find me.
With all this
feeling surging
inside of me
like a river flowing
within a cave.
Am I missing
anything or is
there something
i should know.
Just sitting here
watching the
day goes by.
Can someone
come get me
before i fall
off the stars
into the sea
and disappear.
I'm really seeking
for you around
the corners.
No wonder I'm
in trouble with love.
Pushing me here
and there without
getting stuck with
someone.
Can't get enough
of all the
goodies in it.
I keep demanding
for more.
I'm so undone
for nothing
is ever so
bad that it
couldn't get worse,
that is for
sure how it works.
It can only
get better always.
Now i know
that love is
catching up on me
while i'm running
the other way,
going on a
journey to the
stars and the
sea to find it.

Poetry is intricately profound, it is a mastery of life where the consciousness of the mind of man through the heart felt expression exposes the intriguing intent on all aspects of life.

As the scales
fell off,
you will begin
to see clearly
and differently
without the help
of a magnifier
or a binocular.
So many things
about this life
that didn't matter
or even existed but
only in the mind
have optical illusions.
They will surprise you
because you put
them up to
be important.
When you start
getting over
someone you loved,
you realise how
ordinary they were.
It was your
love that made
them special.
When the scales
fell off you
can now see
the ugliness of
those things you
thought were
so beautiful.
As the veil
is uncovered to
expose the intricacies
of the heart,
everything you
believe in will
crash in front
of you because
all you think
you know is
not as it is
or what you
think it is.
Be weary in
believing too quickly
in things of
flashy nature,
all that glitters
is not gold.
This world is
full of illusions
and plastic stuff.

Is it not
lovely to behold
graciousness in a
magnificent and
adorably enchanting and
passionately exquisite
lovable damsel.
It's supposed
to be a
golden time with
a remarkable
character of
elegance and beauty.
Adorned with
alluring smile,
with a beauty
as if stolen
from an Angel.
A rare gem like
a gift of heaven,
pure loveliness,
and breathtaking,
like a
soft melody of
a symphony orchestra,
you said.
But be careful,
she has a
sting of a
cobra and scorpion.
Like a sour
wine poisoned by
the venom of
a deadly snake.
But now i
have to retire
into the fortress,
my safe haven,
a deadly fly
just fell into
my glass of wine.
She is too
dangerous to love.
Only in Love
are Unity and
duality not in conflict.

Nothing ever happens

cosmic law fulfills.
The earth has
been given
us to excel
in a unique way,
filled with love
and blessings enough
for everyone by

Negative manipulation
of it brings
disaster to our

Our footsteps are

towards goodness
to avoid calamity.
How then can
we not make
meaning out of
the promised path.
Inconsequential and
irrelevant are your

Can we necessarily

You will know,
of course.
Just a thought.
War doesn't determine

There is power
in an individual voice,
echoing in the
darkness about the
oppressed and of
those in chains.
The power of
the individual voice
can break the
icebox even of
the hardened heart
to the call
of the forgotten
and lonely ones
caged in the dungeon.
It only takes
one voice to
create change
by lending your
voice one to
the other.
Be moved and
be aspired to
be inspired and
take action now.
The brave and
passionate steps will
revert anything not
worthy of ameliorating
and glorifying mankind.
It is necessary
to bring man out
of the dark
in which he
unwittingly
find himself and
is in bonds.
However small your
steps are,
it definitely can
cause ripples to
defeat and bring
unexpected grandeur
to free the oppressed.
Your voice counts
as each one
reaches one another
in a chain reaction
to bring justice.
A call for
change is needful
and urgently needed.
Wake up now
to the life
around you.
Take an intentional
walk and experience
your community in
a whole new way.
Your voice counts.

The movie from
yesterday still
plays in the
screen of my
inner vision.
Even though now,
that room in
my heart is
still empty.  
The things that
happened in that
moment years ago
was indescribably
different and
beautiful.
It was like
we were on
another planet.
It was unimaginably
unspeakable
to describe.
Like i don't
want to wake up
from that dream.
Today i relieved
that beautiful moment
of yesterday.
It's still alive
in my heart
and soul.
Like a dormant
volcano that
erupts with a burst,
my emotions flooded
out and melts
everything it touches.
Leaving a silhouette
and shadows of
the things casts
along its path.
Wonderful in itself
with a subtle
divine tone,
it blends beautifully
with love and
grace.
It has a
divine glow.

What truths
will you
set free
before you
are set free.
Do you
think you
could actually
discern and
figure this out.
That we
have no
forever because
our heart
will meet
next to never.
I have
fought vehemently
to become
the emissary
of truth
all my life.
It’s a
burden and
a curse
that i
wish no man.
It's a
thankless errand
for only
the called.
The road
within that
leads to
a lonely path.
A road
less travelled.
But what
really is the
actual truth.
Truth it
seems eludes man,
for the
mind of
man is
weak and
not made
up and not
so good.
Even though
the consciousness
of the
mind of
man cannot
be deceived
for man
is born
in soul goodness.
Some of
the acts
of man
are a
disappointment
and disheartening.
And man
at the
final stage
will find
out that
he is
an exulted
and an
enlightened being.

I am the hunter,
the alpha lone wolf
roaring on a
full moon night.
Not minding the
stillness and silence
of the huge
forest and
deep danger lurking
in the darkness
but ready to hunt
the nights prey,
sniffed out your
hiding places.
Sounds of warning
i give out
before the chase.
Heed the warning,
run and live
or die in
your stubbornness.
I am the
alpha lone wolf,
captain of the park
of parks.
Not afraid
of the dark
for i blend
well with the
darkness under
the full moon.
Roaring to send
chills to all
who may hear.
My voice heard
from miles away,
drives the enemy
into hiding,
cowering in their
coven in fear
and confusion.
I am still coming,
to get you.
I am the
alpha lone wolf.

She said she
comes in peace
but she means
business.
But how can
this be,
since this business
of peace is
war over victory
of the love
in my heart.
My heart can
never be won
by any brutal
means or force,
not even
manipulation
or persuasion.
It can only
be yours by
my wilful
reciprocation
of genuine love.
It can only  
yield and be
won when you
come with love.
It's only that
kind of love
that makes me
do silly things.
Come with
tenderness into
my heart to
reassure me of
your love.
No struggle is
needed to get it.
It is yours
but you have
to earn it.
Try to get
it and claim
it as yours
if you can.
I am willing.

Sometimes i feel
like I don't
know anything
about anything
of anything.
My mind becomes
blank and then
someone comes in
with reassuring and
soothing word
to ignite and
rekindle my soul
again with power,
of just words,
like they said,
iron sharpens iron.
In it is just
a word that
touch my core.
It's incredibly intimate,
I felt safe,
treasured and cared for.
It's like an
unexpected gift
i really wanted
and I feel
thrilled to get it.
Now I'm talking tough
with knee-**** reaction,
the very soundbyte
that is sweet
in the public ears.
It's a true
treasure with a
strength of purpose.
I returned with
grace and so
much love to share.

Don't be lost
in another persons
dream of you.
The only person
i ever lost
and needed back
was myself.
I am lost
but now i
found me again.
I've been
wandering around
myself for a
while and thought
it was a
tree until i
looked up and
saw my face
and my eyes,
never really
realized i am
actually here
within myself.
I'm never really
lost but only
disappeared from
myself a moment.
Am i ever
so glad
to be right here.
Discovery of self
is an amazing
thing in itself,
it's like a
budding rose flower
unfolding daily
in the sunlight,
sharing its fragrance
subtly in the wind
to the end
of nowhere.
It is loves
unfolding dream
that comes in
the hours of
our aloneness to
light up our lives.
It purifies and
lifts the soul
higher to embrace
the bliss that
unfolds quietly
in our being.
In stillness
we absorb and
abandon ourselves
to it's splendor.

This special
night that comes
once in a while
with the stars
shinning and twinkling,
heralding a beautiful
alluring full moon,
the largest of
its kind,
illuminating the
darkness as if
to make it
momentarily
run away.
Something is so
special about tonight.
This moon
large and full,
so bright and so
near the earth
as if you
could touch it.
It is magical
and so beautiful.
Intense and powerful,
alludes to giving
up anything that
no longer serve
us anymore.
Bringing in the new
and discarding the old.
A new dawn of
a new beginning
just emerged
like a covering.
The lovers night,
where two hearts
merged and reunite.
Heaven and earth
touched and blended
subtly by the
powers of the
universe.
This magical
new moon affects
everything within
and beyond our
sphere and adorned
our space with
a new life.
Offering new tidings
for new things
to occur.

Hot love is
like the African
catfish pepper soup
served hot.
With sweaty face,
nose dripping
and mouth gulping
noisily as you
savour with concentration
on the aromatic
delicious saucy savoury
watery dish.
So is the
display of love
between the two
lovers dealing with
themselves doing
the ultimate unspeakable
unimaginable things
which the mouth
cannot express
or utter.
You won't believe
you did that
after it's done,
only the memories
haunting you in
your aloneness
and silence.
Stealing smiles
as you glance
at each other
with eyes locked
in knowingness
with a secret
nod unseen.
The heart desires
joyfully and secretly
for more intimacy
with a loved one
like this one
again and again
doing the you
know what.
I'm not a
psychic or a clairvoyant,
but I can
see that smile
on your face.

I am on
fire burning
for you.
You complete me.
I know you
can feel the
warmth and
the heat
from my soul.
It's all just
for you.
I will never
leave a scar
on your body,
only in your
heart and soul
will you feel
me and know
my essence.
You will never
be able to
stop your breathe,
for the air is
all about me.
You can hold
your breath,
i pulsate in you.
I am the
stillness you feel
when you are alone.
The wine that
intoxicates you
even when you
didn't drink.
The lyrics you
hum and sing
even though it
has no words
to describe how
it makes you feel.
I am the coolness
of the breeze
that touches you
when you take
a walk on the beach.  
I am the
verse in you.
A love to be
desired and
cherished always.
Yours forever.

A glimpse into
a lost soul
is unimaginably
a painful one
like a sore thumb.
Lost in a
twilight of an
oblivious zone
is this child
of love who
has lost the
will to live
and the way
back home.
Living in a
dual complex world.
Lost within a
self built wall
as if in a
self made iron
clad fence.
A prisoner in
shock and shambles,
living in *******.  
Gazing into the
air with a
glossy eye.
No one knows
what he's trying
to say or do
but in his
silence the eyes
speaks volumes.
How can he
be reached within
his solitude of
frightening calmness.
Even when you try,
as all you
get is silence.
His owl cry
cut through the
silence of his
wilderness as if
disturbed by
unsolicited intrusion.
While all he
needed is tender
loving care.

You are my
unspeakable elixir.
The thoughts of
you warms
my heart with
joy and gladness.
Your love
captivates
my heart.
You are the
one that
makes my heart
beats faster.
The one whose
voice melts my heart.
The one who
made me go
weak at the knees.
Your presence
is comforting
and reassuring,
soothing and gloriously
unimaginably beautiful.
Your embrace
makes my day.
Your smile warms
and melts the
cold and darkness
that looms at noonday.
The one that
calms down the
earthquakes i feel
in my heart.
The one whose
breathe is
my strength.
Come away with me
to the dance
call of love.
I want to
meet you at the
middle path of
the rhythm of
your heart beats.
Where heaven and
the earth resonates
without interference.
Where the soul
dances to the
beating of the
hearty melody.
It is there
that my heart
joyfully want to
walk with you.
©2019,Emeka Mokeme. All Rights Reserved.

I would that
i hung in
the air without
a thread holding
me to it,
just like the moon.
And run the
race around
the world,
like the earth.
I want to
walk down from
the sky in seasons,
like the rain
and the snow.
And flow with
freedom to
anywhere i wish,
like the river.
To be fair
like food crops
that is seasonal,
with their types
of colors and shapes,
to give different
tastes of many
sides of love.
Where are you
hiding my love,
you that knows
my heart and
soul and knows
how i feel,
come now to
rekindle the flame
of love divine
in my heart
and possess it
as your very own.
Wish i like
the stars you like,
and nights bright light.
To sit up
all night long
with you watching
the dark turn
into day.
I would give
anything just
to find such
a one.
The only one
my soul desire.
Appear from behind
the veil to
soothe and comfort
the heart that waits.

Whosoever doubts you
will be dumbfounded
by your astuteness.
They will never
understand the way
of the wind
or the way
the river flows.
The way of
the honey bees
will confound them.
Neither will they
understand the pleasure
of a man
who has lost
his direction in
the wilderness and
to suddenly find
his way out
of the middle
of nowhere.
Keep your whole
life low keyed
and let people
assume incorrectly
about you.
It will keep
them busy in
advertising you.
The strength of
silence over
catastrophic indexes
are infinitely infectious.
No kind of force,
and absolutely nothing
can withstand anything
whose time has come.

This mysterious night
brings magic alive
as we watch it
pass before our eyes,
ushering in something
extraordinary into
the universe.
Night is beautiful
although danger lurks
inside it.
Horror and beauty
mingles and blends
together always in
synergy within the
depths of the night.
Subtly with effortless
effort,
the night with
love pours into
the cup of life
the light,
and the darkness,
and with kindness
equally filtering
and separating
darkness into light.
At night is
when the night
crawlers haunt,
their eyes adapted
to that sphere
to see better
beyond our
optical visions.
But the strong
silence of its
solitude beckons.
To it's presence
our being embraced,
to restore and refresh,
soothe and to heal
our tired body.
With its hypnotic
calmness it puts
our being to sleep.
There's is magic
at night time,
a wonder to behold,
displayed by nature
for us to
adore the mystery
of the earth.
Out of the dark,
the light emerged.

Risking it all
for love is
something beautiful
and mesmerizing.
Two opposite hearts
coming together
is truly awesome.
Giving your heart
to someone else
is like a
casino bet,
risking all for
the dream only
you can see.
Believing the
impossibility and
putting your life,
your whole life
into the hands
of the one
you barely know,
sometimes against
the will of
your family,
and friends who
knows and understands
you better.
But you will
definitely defy
their best
heartfelt judgement
for your gut
feelings about
a total stranger.
Most times you
win and the
heart in bliss rejoices
and sometimes
you lose and
the heart bitterly weeps.
Another really hurts
and can't even
understand why
it failed even
though they tried.
The first thing
that should draw
two people together
should be Chemistry.
That magnetic feeling
of deep respect
and attraction.
And when it
is right everyone
is happy.
But when is
it really exactly
ever right.
It is a
risky madness.

For just this
moment,
breathe.
So the little
me can rest,
from all these
unnecessary
struggles,
bring me out
to a place
of solace,
out of this
smouldering
down world
but place me
in a better
corner where
at least
for this moment
i can just breathe
a fresh air,
for this
place is suffocating.
Death and  
stagnation is here
and are
a menace to
everything and
everyone it touches.
It's presence
is devastating.
But for now
let me lay
down on this bed
of a thousand roses.
And savour the
freshness of this moment.
©2019,Emeka Mokeme. All Rights Reserved.

You can't figure
me out anymore
for the enemy
can't find
any me any more
in my new
configuration.
I am not
there for you
can't find
me in there.
Your crystal *****
are dull in
locating any me
for your fun.
There's no any
more me left
to be found,
I disappeared
instantly to emerge
a new me.
Embrace the
new me in
your awakening.
I am no
longer living in
that creepy place
where you were
looking for me.
Even though there
were things you
think were indelible
from the past,
they are now
erased from
me forever.
I've evolved
into a new creation.
Transmogrified for
a new beginning,
unexplored and unscathed.
There's no longer
any me to
be found by
the enemy.
Peace of mind
now abound.

Love beckons.
Calling from afar
to know the
heart that will
answer the call.
Another peep
into the crack
of the heart
in love,
beautifully
wrapped up
like a cream
flowing from
a silver jar
into the soft
and tender hands
of pure essence
of beauty.
She lay quietly
at the corner
of the room
waiting for her
love to return.
With the flicker
of the moonlight
penetrating through
the walls of
the buildings where
she lay down
wrapped up
in a fragrance
of a thousand roses.
With the candles
lit by the sides,
love beckons
as two hearts
reunite in bliss.
And suddenly she
kissed me as
if the sky
is on fire.
We melted together
and forgot
about the moment.
And love triumphed.

Don't worry about
what is happening
right now around you,
if the window
through which you
look out into your
world is *****,
be assured that
my flowers will
definitely show
you the mud
in my garden.
If you can't
wipe out your  
windows to be
completely clear,
how would you
see the mud
in the garden
that helped your
flowers to grow,
the mud that
gave you the
beautiful adorable
rose flower to
adorned your table.
To touch the
gold and the
diamond in the mud,
your hands must
first get ready
to feel the
dirt of the mud.

The decent into
matter must be
complete before the
ascent to spirit
can commence.
There are two
opposite serpents
inside of you
and it's up to
you which
one you feed.
It depends on
you which one
you give preeminence.
There are seven virtues
high with positive
frequency:
humility,patience,
temperance,kindness,
charity,chast­ity,diligence,
and seven deadly sins-
low with negative frequency:pride,wrath,
gluttony,envy,
anger,lust,sloth.
Which ones affects
you is entirely
up to you.
Choosing the middle
path takes you
above the ordinary
into the cortex
of the Almighty.
Your ageless soul
is not a stranger
to the sacred
exclusive secret path
within your consciousness,
it has severally
thriven on that
inner journey so
many times in time
into the sanctuary
to be sanctified.
There forever,
is his eternal
dwelling place.

Would you
believe me
if i
tell you
a secret
about your
stubbornness and
manner of life.
The way
you craftily
arrange yourself
to falsely
confuse the
naive unsuspecting
gullible individuals
about your
fake lifestyle,
ill gotten
wealth and status.
This only
happens when
the foxes
are guarding
the henhouses.
Because a
shift left
is occurring.
Can someone
tell me
why the
moon is
not rotating
while revolving
around the sun.
You know not,
do you.
The moon
does rotate
on its
axis while
revolving around
the Earth.
The moon's
rotation rate
matches it's
revolution rate,
resulting in
the same
side of
the moon
always facing
earth causing
illusion of
magic as
you watch it.
The same
thing happens
when the
deluded mind
play pranks
with their
deceptive ways
to decidedly
seriously deceive
the innocent.
They believe you
because they
know not.

Beyond the ordinary
and the dream fly.
Never wait for
anyone's approval
or to be pushed
to go for
your dream.
The set time
is now
just for you.
The cosmic pull
draws you
powerfully into
the orb.
Yield yourself
to the call.
Your inner core
knows the way
and the truth.
Accept it the
way it is.
Change will come
when you
are transformed
from within.
Things have come
to a full circle.
The end has
become the beginning
beyond the limits.
You need a ride,
a quantum leap
to transmogrify you
into a superman
beyond the ordinary
and the dream
so you can
definitely at last
finally fly.

Within us heaven
shines forth.
Hell and the
dark side is
always with us
and consumes us.
But you find
the greater light
only by seeking it
and by invitation.
What we have
inside is like
a seamless ocean
without boundaries
that is infinite.
It flows from
within to wherever
it's willfully directed
and willingly chooses to
rest and abide.
The two opposite
paths within are open.
It depends on
which path you
willfully choose to walk.
You need to
see the shadows
within you to
understand the
conflicts and
problems on others.
Heaven within is
attainable when you
thrive for it.
Joy and serenity
comes when you
follow the way
of the middle path.
First find it
and heaven will
find you out.

I've heard the
soft footsteps
of the unknown
person walking around
in the darkness
of the night.
The voice of
a woman murmuring
in the quietness
of the lonely
dark night.
The whimpers of
an ill child
in pain as
if calling out
a mantra to
nature for help.
The groaning of
a wounded sick
old man at
a street corner,
hungry and tired
waiting to get
help or to be
consumed by death.
As nature seeks
earnestly to quit
the work of
the day,
another work
just began.
Makes you really
wonder if nature
ever truly rests.
Clouds keeps ever
turning and changing,
constantly moving nonstop.
The earth continues
subtly to magically
move from light
to dark and from
darkness to light.
The leaves of
grass and the
trees breathing in
and out to
heal and give
us life.
The sea never
stops flowing.
The fish never
ever close their
eyes to slumber
or stop their
movements to rest.
The night becomes
alive in the dark.
It seems the
animals in the
deep forest have
their funfair at
night time.
Only the night
walkers experience
the serenity of
such beauty.
The galaxy opens
up to show
us their
glorious moment.
The hidden treasures
of the earth
awakens to mesmerize
those who ventures
into their abode.
Wonder working powers
position themselves
over all things
to empower them
for greater good
and growth.
The wise men
awakes at such
time to assimilate
the influx of
the energy realised
from the invisible.

It was a
beautiful sight
outlined up in
the starry sky
this night.
The galaxy is
so full of
the stars as
if there's merriment
tonight with the
new moon at
the corner.
Something uniquely
magnificently and
specially magical
is happening,
unknown to many.
Tonight all the
stars came out
to display and
aligned themselves with
breathtaking beauty.
They are passionately
exquisite to behold.
With beauty so
extraordinary and
shinning so brightly,
adorn with grace
as they glitter.
Perfectness is
wrapped and
wrought in them.
Who knows if
our own lives
are linked to
the extraterrestrial.
Seems like the
stars has a
good hold on
our destiny and
the wheel of life.
The secrets of
life are with
the stars and
encoded within the
depths of time,
singing out their
melody to the world.
And if you
can hear their
songs at night,
definitely know you
are now no
more a prisoner
of the earth.

I know your pain,
I understand your
fear and frustration.
Your feelings
resonates with me.
I see your
struggles and confusion.
You are so
scared that you
abandoned and
abdicated your throne.
How are the
mighty fallen.
Be rest assured
that what you
feared most will
never happened.
It seems like
the world is
cruel to you.
Never mind son
of man,
you are not
alone or
defeated still.
Don't you know
child of God
that you are
more than a
conquerer and
superior to any
crafty secret
manipulation of the
darkest forces
that confronts you.
You have dominion
and victory over
principalities
and powers.
A way of escape
has been given,
made for you.
Arise now today
son of man,
the set time
to free yourself
from the chains
of evil influences
has definitely come.
The one who
leads you through
the dark wilderness
beckons.
Shine powerfully
henceforth and
let no man
stop you.
Be courageous and
fear not that
creepy slimy worm
infesting your life.
Every hidden stomp
must be uprooted.
The cry of
your brokenness
touches the heart
of God who
stands amidst the
calamities of multiple
ugly situations to
quench the storms
corroding your life.
Rejoice now,
son of the
most high
for good things
are spoken of you.

Colicky baby crying,
calling out to
mother for help,
to do something.
With magical voice,
mother soothes,
swaddle baby with
hands of love.
Rocks baby with
songs so sweet,
to quiet with
lullaby to sleep.
With hands so
gentle mother
massages to calm
the wild cry.
Baby is so
blessed to have
a face with
heavenly smile,
a voice so
soothing and calm,
to tackle the
colicky troubles,
like a lemon balm
to cast away
the cry of pain
with a drop
of ginger in water.
Mother knows that
the colicky cry
all the time
means trouble
for baby.
Thank you
Angel mother
for being here
for baby when
you are needed.

Beautiful night,
vivid with magical
clear full moon
hanging in the
dark night up
in the sky.
It brings thoughts
of restlessness
as if you
want to explore
the galaxy
all by yourself.
Beautiful as it may,
calm and quiet
with sounds of
the deep silence
of the earth
talking to your soul.
The heart is
so at ease
and peaceful.
All around you
are not going
to be the same
as time alone
with nature nurtures
and engulf your
being with the
power of love.
With your soul
you feel the light,
even when your
eyes only
see darkness.
The soul opens
up like the
rose flower that
unfolds itself as
it blooms and
blossom to share
it's fragrance
to cheer the
brokenness of the heart.
Washed by its
purity and adorned
by its pureness
the heart is
renewed and regenerated
with bliss.

The strange dilemma
of this day
makes me feel
really so sad.
It feels so
weird to be
touched by these
rottenness from the
heart of the
ones who suppose
to have goodness
in them.
Hardened and shut
down their hearts
and drove away
the Holy Spirit
that supposed to
dwell therein
I am so wired
right now
to really get
off my rocker.
Endurance and patience
eludes me
for my heart
is really broken.
How can all
this be happening
and everyone is
alright with it.  
It is not right.
I am not
alright with it.
You have all
that is required
to do better.
Harness and stop
the beast immerging
from inside you.
You are not
a beast but
a divine being.
Is there no
bowel of mercy
within you.
Look at what
your irrational and
unrealistic unreasonable
behavior has cost us.
Change your acts
and attitude
for the glory
of God and the
benefit of mankind.

Any animal in
the forest that
suddenly decides
to develope and
grows a horn
just because of me,
will definitely finds
out that it's
horn will eventually
be used as a cup
to drink wine.
I am like
the praying mantis
that dances
before it kills.
Calm and calculative,
focused and thoughtful,
tactful and mindful,
meditative and intuitive.
But can also
be dangerous for
the praying mantis kills.
The dance steps
and movements
are hypnotic and
mesmerizing.
A little mistake
can drastically cause
you your joy
and happiness,
even your life
and be the
little storm that
turns into a
big deal that
can mess up
your life.
It's like the
***** and the
excrete of the
mythical animal
set as a bait
to catch it's prey.
But what does
it all mean.
Don't mess up
what is so
important to you
just because you
are a little
unsure of who
you are.

Absolutely no-thing,
people, places, experiences
is responsible for
my happiness,freedom
and peace within me.
If you need
to swear before
people believe you,
you lack integrity.
and have no dignity.
Salt maintains its
integrity amidst pollution.
Have you seen
where a salt
buyer demands to
taste it before buying,
no,because salt
has proved its
integrity over the time.
You don't need
to shout for
you to be heard.
People keep quiet
to listen to
intelligent people.
You can because
you matter.
It is clear
that the desire
and the ardor
here do not
do nothing.
No one can
tell you what
brings to the energy,
the flamboyance and
the manifestation
of the spirit,  
except the only
one who has
supernaturally received
the gift of
seeing it and of it.

Last night was
the last date
of the year.
Today is a
perfect morning and
a good time
for celebrations.
The dawn of
a new year
just emerged.
This is a time to
count our blessings
and give thanks
with a grateful heart.
Good time for reflection.
Looking back at
the achievements,
failure and success,
strength and support
which built our
families and relationships,
businesses and lives.
The time to
drop excess
baggage and luggage
we have carried
throughout the year.
Time to rewrite
the blueprint on
the canvas of life,
set up a
new roadmap,
and have new
goals and aspirations.
A time to
discard the old
and embrace the new.
Time to be
courageous and bold
enough to take
a stand on
new belief system
and embrace a
new hobby and
new arrangements
and another chance
of new beginnings.
To look at
things a little
bit more different
with profound
understanding of the
principle back of things.
Step into this
new phase of
the new year,
the new dawn,
the new beginning
of another chance
to be better
with a grateful heart
and so much love
to be the best
that you can be.

I was once
a bamboo tree,
bending over for
everyone to climb,
dancing in the
wind by the
moonlight.
Listening to the
flute and the
songs of the birds.
I am the
feed of the
animals,
I took in
their farts smelling
all around me.
Now am taller
and stronger.
I was once
a young iroko tree,
standing tall with
dignity and pride.
I am matured,
and become like an
umbrella for shade.
My presence alludes
strength.
But now i am
the sacred dwarf iroko,
the mysterious
anunuebe tree of
which no one
or any living thing
is allowed to
come near or
approach or fly over
without serious
consequences.
No one can
climb me,
it is not allowed.
The once loved
is now the abhorred,
revered and respected.
I'm no longer
bending over
for anyone and
will not allow
anyone to climb
all over me.
You must approach
with respect to
be allowed entrance.
This is my
natural stance.

With your eyes
you saw it,
with your mind,
you believe
or disagree.
With your heart
you know the
truth behind the
hidden secrets
of the heart.
The spirit searches
the mind for truth.
It is really truly
tremendously
incredibly indelibly
absolutely
informatively
mind blowing.
But don't twist
my words for
your own agenda
or the trolls will
crawl up into
your crazy mind
and give you
a delirious dream.
You will never
know the darkness,
understand the emptiness,
or feel the pain
i went through
just to be here.
The ugly scar
on my face,
my silence over
your petty pesky
harassment is a
deep sign of
discipline and
determination to get
you off my rocker.
It's my way
of showing you
that I've been
there too and
i survived.
And I'm still
standing right here,
telling you to
stop now and
survive this too.

When you witnessed
and survived war,
seen villages destroyed,
lots of family
members dead,
lost the people
you love
and care about.
You know a
part of you
died with them,
and you will never
be the same,
then you will
understand why
it is good
to seek peace.
You will understand
diplomacy.
You will negotiate
with the assumed
enemy to find
the right way
out of the situation.
You will never
do anything that
will cause your
people to go
through unnecessary
harrowing experience
and nightmare or
cause the annihilation
of your tribe and
communities and children,
women and the elderly.
You will respect
and value the
dignity of your
people's lives and interests.
You will learn
tolerance and discipline
to deal with
the most difficult
and complex people.
Be more tolerant
in handling difficult
situations.
You will be
convinced and know
that war is not
just the solution
or the answer
to any problem.

Tear drops on
my rose flower
are changing colour
while dropping
on the table
and flowing into
my silver cup,
touching my lips,
transformed it into
something uniquely
unimaginable to
quicken the heart
and cause it
to beat faster.
I can hear
the subtle messages
of your heartbeat .
How can you
attract the bees
on your flowers
and then ****
them for *******
the nectar from
different flavors.
To love the
wrong person
is dreadfully depressing,
for you will
dine with the ants,
it is a terrible
curse or a spell,
that may not
be broken.
It is the
closest you can
be to an
earthquake.
I conjure now,
you will never
be jinxed.

In all these rising in status
why do i feel so small
as if i know nothing
Like I'm just a beginner
in the toil of life
Why do i feel so empty
as i watch my accolades
on the wall.
Like i really don't deserve them
I'm just a mole in the moment of time
Living a life of illusions
on which doors upon doors opens
before me as if it's not real
I'm toiling in vain to meet up
something that doesn't exist
I know somehow it's not real
but i just can't stop or help myself
Running a race to meet up another day I can't seem to reach
A day that can't be fulfilled
or be satisfied
All are just empty
I feel like one fetching water
with a basket
And ending up right just where I started
Going round and round in circles
When will all these end
It looks like the end is the beginning
and the beginning is the end
I really don't know
©2018,Emeka Mokeme. All Rights Reserved.

It looks like
no one really
cared.
Everyone seems
not to care,
but only cared
about what they
expect from you.
Only give-me-
give-me attitude,
they offer.
Now i have
a rub off
from this
to-take-to-take
down world.
How did I
ever became so
lost without a
caring heart.
Hardened and
nonchalant.
I guessed it
was the effects
of how they
actually acted
towards me.
Neglected and belittled,
abandoned as
if I didn't exist.
Their attitude rubbed
off on me.
It will happen
to you when
you live amongst
them like I did.
He said, i
feel like a stranger
around the family.
They have no
human values or
respect, no dignity.
I don't know
or understand what
happened to us.
What has happened
to everyone,
he pined.
We are the
walking dead
without feeling.
There are no
place safe or
safe haven.
It's dog eat dog.
Surviving daily
is hard.
Mother's can't
feed their children.
The children roaming
the streets begging
for help and handouts.
The elites and the
rich and wealthy
are not reachable.
The influential and
the powerful refused
to come down
from their high
horses to help.
They are watching
from their windows.
Sometimes throwing
down crumbs from
their rooftops.
This is not good.
There must be
a drastic change,
he concluded.

Never mind about
whatever you have
heard,seen or
experienced in
the past because
i'm still going
to be here
waiting just for you.
All are deceptions
of optical
illusion within
your illusions.
You can never
see it occur
or actualized in
reality except
in your mind,
and all that
is important is
only felt in
your heart and
seen in your mind.
What if you
tell someone the
most important
thing in your
life and they
will never
believe you.
I understand that
you are not
yet in the
mood to confront
yourself.
Everything you have
got and done
you lose.
You are still
going to lose
even if you
didn't do anything,
you still lose.
It will keep
coming back to
you until you
get it done  
Communicate
sincerely with your
inner self to
let your spirit
emanate from the
darkness that
engulfed your being.
They are meddling
with your heart.
You know you
have a chance
to find your past.
You were dead
and was given
a new body,
recreated and
formed and
fashioned in a
new way.
Now you have
a soul that
can reason
and think rationally.
Everything they
told you was
a lie.
Listen they stole
your life.
But I'm going
to help you
end up somewhere
except the morgue,
if you are
willing to let
me help you.

A fresh start
for all of us
to love more,
do more,
to act more,
strategize more,
learn new ways
of doing things,
learn new trade,
acquire new skills,
upgrade yourselves,
migrate and relocate
to new environment,
move away from
things that didn't work,
invest in our growth,
add value to our lives,
help change our
priorities.
Explore new frontier
and horizon.
Another new dawn
emerged for another
beginning of
something uniquely
magnificently new.
A dream is born,
a desire to
accomplish something,
sprouts in the heart,
a promise comes true.
A vision manifests,
new arrangement of
something occurs.
The change we
always wanted
level up with us.
Aspirations are forged.
Challenges are confronted.
New goal begins
in earnest.
The culmination of
the past efforts
and projects begin
to yield results.
We want to
stay focused with
determination to get
things done.
We plan not
to fail or faint,
forget not to
plan or we faint.
New paths are
forged because we
are the pathfinders.
May God's love
unveiled by his
Spirit shield you,
protect and bless you.
May the road
arise to meet you,
may the wind
be behind you,
the rain wet your path,
may the wheel
of fortune turn
in your favour.
May grace and
the kindness of
individuals surround you.
May it's breast
satisfy you and
may you find
peace in its *****.
Embrace it with gladness,
it is yours to take.

This is a
remote place,
so far away
from people,
you can barely
see or hear
anything except
the water drops
from the rooftop
and the birds
chirping on the
trees outside,
the calmness and
solitude of this
place can almost
pierce your ears.
It is a dark
spooky place hidden
within the depths
of a cave
that i discovered
myself and my
hidden strength.
A scary revelation
of my true self
emanated from within.
In the darkest
corner of this
cold isolated lonely
room where monsters
tempts and Angels
dwells to save
and set free the lost
came the best of me.
Out of great
suffering and pain,
quite and far
away from the
prowling eyes of
humans,
strange things happens.
There within me,
the sense of self,
ignited by the
influence of the spirit,
the light shined.
I found a
place of peace,
my happy place.
And the darkness
in me disappeared
like a thief
in the Arabian
desert at night,
it flew away
like a caged bird
seized by an
old Arab princess.

Is it not
amazing and
truly beautiful
to you that
I am so
blessed to have
you in my life.
I love the
way you do me,
and the way
you make me feel.
You are a
special gem,
valued and treasured.
Truly cherished.
A love to  
be desired always.
My darling dear.
Can anything be
as sweet and
lovely my dear
than this very
special moment
together with you now.
Let's not mind
if we reach
the shore or not.
This moment
right here and
right now is
truly more than enough.
I appreciate you,
special one.
©2018,Emeka Mokeme. All Rights Reserved.

I feel every
moment of you
in my heart.
I feel loved,
I feel your warmth,
I feel alive
because of
your presence.
I feel the
words you spoke
to me.
It's like a
quantum success,
a heartwave.
I can hear
you in my
head and my
heart feels you.
In the heart
where the heaven
and earth meets,
there you reside.
I carry you
in my heart
along with me
from the beginning,
and there i
can meet you,
there I can hug
and hold you
whenever you are
absent from me.
And from now on,
we will make
it better than it was.
