WAYS OF THE WARRIORS
Emeka Mokeme Dec 2018
The ways of
the warriors and
the sign of the
warrior are complex.
An odd fellow.
chosen among many
to join the elite forces.
Sworn to the
oath of secrecy.
Lives by honour
and guided by
the secret code.
Expendable.
No retreat,
no surrender.
By fire by fire.
A do or die.
The One who
must die trying.
Hard nut to crack  
The Rock  
Never give up.
Resilient and unflinching.
Dare to do
as well as
a warrior of
the Knight Templers.
Terrible and terrifying
when provoked.
Tactical and strong hearted.
Your worst nightmare.
Gentle as a
dove.
Respected.
Loyal and trusted.
A protector of the weak
as well as the mighty.
A reliable and
true brother indeed.
Never leaves anyone behind.
The noble one.
Understanding and wise.
A loner but friendly.
A listener and
patient with children.
A terror to the
insurgents and
the hoodlums.
Dreaded but loving.
A great father and
provider for the family.
The fearless one.
The right hand of the king.
The man of war.
The punisher
with no mercy for
the evil ones.
The striker who
make the elephants flee.
He is favoured
by the gods.
He is born to conquer
for he comes from the
lineage of the warriors.
Don't mess with him
for he is a warrior.

WISH FOR YOU
Emeka Mokeme Dec 2018
This wish is for
you who cares,
the wish is for
you who peeps
into my heart,
to see what
lies deep beneath

and has taken
the time out
to find a seat
even when there's
an earthquake within.
A happy heart
with good feelings,
that is what i
meant by that wish.
Wishing you the
very best life
can give,
the amazing sweet
awesomeness life
can offer you.
The beginning of
something uniquely
magnificently and
beautifully new
will arise to meet you.
Let the start of
a new dawn
emerge for you.
May it enfold
you in it's
***** and have
the fruits to
bless your life.
May your roots
be refreshed and
the dead leaves
of your life
start to sprout again.

FRIENDSHIP SO DEAR
Emeka Mokeme Oct 2018
Hope and wonder
gives a soul uniqueness.
It's a genre full of happiness,
so secure but with our
own flaws,
the Antares that resides in
the heart to sting.
But still nurtures our
humanness with love so bizarre.
All mortals cry even kings or
in rags when it hurts,
but love brings healing.
For a vision so deep,
entangles so powerfully,
it's a mirage of beauty and pain.
A habitat of love divine,
an art of magic binding
us together.
Our soul can't fly away for,
within shore of the coast of love,
memories are made of countless forms.
Our friendship so dear,
can never end.
All hardship ends,
for love is established,
beautiful adventure begins,
and love blooms.

SHINE BEAUTIFULLY
Emeka Mokeme Sep 2019
Don't be
left out
in the dark
for it is
a terrible place
of the dead.
It is
a dark pit,
desolate and
empty lonely
prison.
No one will
ever come for
your rescue.
A forgotten island
meant for the
walking dead.
Come out quickly
from amongst them.
Let the light
of love however
faint or small
shine beautifully
into the tunnel
of your heart,
it will make
a difference.
Untie yourself from
their ******* and
refuse to be
the sinner they
always wanted
you to be.

SACRED SAVE HEAVEN
Emeka Mokeme Oct 2018
One must travel
over the mountains,
the seas and over
the dessert,
beyond the wall,
and beyond every
comfort zone
to discover the
real truth about this
world we are living in.
Hidden inside the
forest and deep within
the ocean are placed the
things needed to sustain us.
Man needs to awaken
from our deep slumber
to discover and cultivate it.
Who will save the
kingdom and the people.
The universe is connecting
everything to suit you.
The world awaits you,
stretch forth your hands.
To awaken within the dream
is our purpose now.
When we are awake
within the dream,
the ego-created earth-drama
comes to an end
and a more benign and wondrous dream arises.
This is the new earth.
Let's possess the earth
and make it a little grandeur,
much better sacred save heaven.

PRESENT MOMENT
Emeka Mokeme Jul 2017
When we are spiritually evolved,
some aspects of ourselves dies.
Our highest good
then emerge as we
release what no longer
has value to serve us,
vacuum is then created
for the best in us to manifest.
In that present moment,
the reality which we created
or experienced  is painful
but it does not last.
We bring In the new,
so the old can now go.
At this point,
we must yield ourselves
to the eternal realities.
We must completely
trust the Great Spirit
and stay focus in his leading.
Our inner man will be
strengthened with might
and our heart blessed
with his divine love
and we know that something
extraordinarily supernatural  
has happened inside us
to enrich our spirit.
We can now go forth in this might
as we carry his presence to affect our world

GOOD TO BE HERE
Emeka Mokeme Dec 2018
The day you
cried in the
rain,
did it really
washed off your
pain.
A day after
the rain fall,
was it actually
your turn.
To be in
love with you,
is it not
a good thing.
All came out
because it is
the time.
There's something
on your teeth,
let me see it.
You see it's
not so hard
to smile.
It gets easier
by the day.
Be assured,
it can only
get better.
You are the
one to decide
which way your
life goes.
Plan to work
out your plans
and finally reach
your goal.
Truly there's
nothing more
beautiful than
to be here
at this moment
with you.
It's really good
just to be here.

BEAUTIFUL AS IT UNFOLDS
Emeka Mokeme Oct 2018
At the corner of
the room I see you,
I see your heart
fluttering like a
butterfly looking for
flowers to drink on
the juice of the nectar.
Hungry and dashing
here and there
collecting and competing
with the honey bees.
Both at work on same thing
but different purpose.
With so much love they work,
sensitive and not hurting
the flowers.
Unwittingly triggered pollination,
with love visiting homes and
gardens with their presence.
Gently without complaining,
they both share same flower
without striving to ****
themselves over nothing.
There's enough abundance
distributed all over.
Beautiful as it
unfolds to reveal
the secrets of life in nature
abundantly displayed
in full supply.
Let the heart follow
the one it's attracted to
and fully enjoy every
single moment as
if it's the last.

STORMS OF TRIAL
Emeka Mokeme Oct 2019
Our heart grieves
in our weakness,
and we felt as
weak as water.
Some days can
be much more
difficult than others.
The winds change
and the storms
of trial come
and go in our lives.
But we know
that out of suffering
have emerged the
strongest souls;
the most massive
characters are seared
with scars.
I have all three
ingredients the
first time,
rather i put
my everything in you.
My trust
My love
My honesty
My loyalty
My faithfulness
My heart
My soul
My spiritual connection
My prayers
All of them
merged in me,
and we are one.
Courage,
persistence and
willingness to never
give up are
keys to winning
our battle.

BLACK FRIDAY
Emeka Mokeme Nov 2018
Black Friday,
the life of
stolen essence.
Indeed it makes
me sad every
November of
every year when
they celebrate
their conquest
and supremacy,
******* Africans in the
mud and spit on our
beautiful ebony face,
yet we joined
them in celebrating it.
Have we ever
told our children
to understand
this story filled
with the sad history
of our ancestors
captured and taken to
shores unexpectedly,
forced and unwilling,
in chains and in pains.
Humiliated and abused,
dehumanize and molested,
hungry and dehydrated
through this unnecessary
harrowing nightmare of
their journey to this
unknown cold world
where even the weather
was unkind to them.
Their suffering was
unnecessary.
Death awaits on that ship
and on the ocean
and in that creepy place
unknown to them.
So many unfortunate
ones died in the
hands of their captors
and others died
because of illness and
others sold and resold.
Unspeakable atrocities
follow them everywhere.
Oral traditions is our weapon,
have we not all jettison such.
Do we read history,  
do we know enough
as to be able
to repeat to our kids.
Is the black
Friday not cursed.
They rejoiced and
pride themselves
over making much
merchandise over us
with no regrets.
They enriched
themselves over
our sweat and left us
impoverished in chains.
Who can beat into
us some right
senses to think.
We are not and
no longer in chains
but our minds are
still enslaved.

THE MUD IN THE GARDEN
Emeka Mokeme Feb 2019
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.

MY WEAKNESS IS YOU
Emeka Mokeme Jun 2019
Your love
consumes me
in a unique way
my heart sings
a new melody,
and i
dance for you.
Your heart
swallowed me up,
so I can
stay with you.
Your presence
comforts me,
so i can safely
feel your essence.
Your lips
caresses me,
so your sweetness
overtakes me.
Your ******* feeds
and satisfy me,
i want no other.
Your arms
embraced me as
a warm covering
against loneliness.
Your words
filled me up
with so much joy,
i am fulfilled.
What can I say
about your kiss,
it makes me
go weak at
the knees.
How you do

HELP THEM TO SURVIVE
Emeka Mokeme Sep 2018
I just wonder who
is to blame for this
unfortunate difficult
stormy problems all
around us.
The situations have not
changed at all.
Those who are affected
cannot afford the high
cost of living in the country.
They are at the mercy of the
handouts given to them.
With tears in their eyes
they beg for alms daily,
they ask for help so they
can survive for another day.
The risk of staying back is
suicidal because of too much
bombardment and gunshots
and killings of the indigenes.
Women and children are not
left out.
They are the most vulnerable,
they are sick and tired,
confused and hungry,
hopeless and helpless,
with no rescue in sight for now.
Abandoned as if they are of
no use anymore.
They feel expendable and disposable.
No one seems to remember them.
They are now like the forgotten
earthen ***,
Worn out and of no use.
Remember that someday you may
end up like them.
What happened to them can happen
to anyone including you.
Offer and render whatever help that
you can to alleviate their situation.

TRUE FACE BOOK
Emeka Mokeme Dec 2018
A lesson on
looking and reading
the face as a book.
Be the one
you love
because all your
secrets and struggles,
everything about you
are not hidden
but written all
over your face.
Let's face the
book and find
out what is
going on with you.
I see the
world in
your face.
You feel the
world in
your heart.
You know the
warmth of love
in your soul.
You carry within
yourself the weight
and the burden,
the pain of
the whole universe
in your life.
The imprint of
the spirit is
linked to the
extraterrestrial.
Your face is
the mirror of
which every mood,
every thought and
all that you feel,
and every phase
of your very
life and experiences
are regularly registered.
Your likes and
your dislikes,
your sorrow and joy
are revealed.
Your contentment
and your distress
are shown to
the world.
Nothing ever that
is hidden within
or without in
your persona are
all shared by
your face and
encoded in your
physiognomical changes.
Your face is
indeed a true
facebook worth reading.

I WILL SHINE AGAIN
Emeka Mokeme Feb 2018
I stood watching
as she walked away
Dumbfounded by
the reason she gave
She wanted me
but preferred the other
If only she knew
what she missed
As a prince I have pride too
I knew she was just a
messed up kid in the hood
As I stood there watching
I already know I won't
see her ever again
But another is waiting
For what you lose on the swing,
you gain on the roundabout
I am a prince
I am my mothers child
My fathers very own
I am precious
I am a mystery to be unraveled
I am the sun
I will shine again.

THE WAY YOU ARE
Emeka Mokeme Aug 2019
See the way
you made me feel,
i smile like
i won a trophy.
But indeed
you are the
best trophy
I've ever won.
Your presence comforts
my heart and
your words make
the day beautiful.
Your smile radiates
like the stars
in the night sky.
It shines like
the twinkling star,
that caused my heart
to race like
the gazelle running
down the hill
on a quiet evening.
So soft and
tender are your
embrace,
like that of
a soft smooth
symphony orchestra.
Beautiful as the
sun shinning over
the shimmering snow.
Reminds me of
the joyful tenderness
of a beautiful soul.
You are the
one who makes
my heart smile.
You caused my
soul to flip
like the butterfly
dancing over the
wild flowers in
the orchard.

MY HEART MISSES YOU
Emeka Mokeme Mar 2019
The mountain top
is wrapped in mist,
so cloudy that
i can't see.
Right there,
there is dense
fog dripping water,
out of nowhere.
Whenever my
heart hurts,
my head aches,
my soul mourns
and cries out in
sobs and groans.
Moaning softly like
a child whose
fingers were smashed,
all the body aches.
My eyes cries too,
my face suffers
with salty tears
dropping down to
my mouth,
even as it
drools with saliva,
my nose dripping
with slimy stuff
to warn of
how much
i hurt inside.
My heart misses you,
I miss you.
Close your eyes
so that your soul
can see through
the heart to
know how much
you mean to me.
Even in daylight
the heart can
still be surrounded
by darkness as
it is broken.
But you can
now know that
even the fallen
leaves are the
most beautiful,
they will always
blend in synergy
with the sand to
form the manure
for yet another
beautiful beginning
to sprout a seed
for the growth
of every plant
that gradually grows
into an Iroko tree.

THE WATER
Emeka Mokeme Jan 2020
Is the water of the
ocean from somewhere
under the ground.
What is it and
how did it appear.
Where is its source.
And the water
under the ground,
where does it flow to.
From where did it
come from and
where is it going to.
Where is the source
of the rain which 
falls to the earth.
Is there another
body of water up
in the firmament.
Who has seen it.
The water inside the rock,
how did it get in there.
Can they ever come
together and merged as one.
How did it form
and come to be.
I know it is alive
and listens to our
conversations and
commands
with compassion.
I know it responds
and reacts to our
feelings and every
word spoken.
I also know it heals
everything it touched.
I know that our utterances
of love evokes its power
to affect our consciousness.
Our ancestors knows
its sacred secrets.
The ancient sages tune
into its immense help.
It has the key to immortality.
It is the elixir of life,
guarded jealously by the gods.
It works in synergy
with the sun and the moon.
All things above
the heavens and
beneath the earth
yield to it.
In it is hidden
the supernatural.
With it you can
do great exploits,
for in the beginning,
the spirit of God moved
and incubated over the
face of the waters.

Where do you

sometimes a little
more than a little,
to get to what

NEVER FORGET
Emeka Mokeme Sep 2018
I am now healed
because I lavishly love.
Caring for your care
opened up my heart to
know how you feel within
by reason of what you do.
Beautiful is the heart that
can love again even when
you are bruised by those
who suppose to lift you up.
The hurtful way they treated
you shows how dark their
hearts are hardened by the
troubles all around them.
Do forgive them for their
ignorance.
Show them love and let them
see the power of love and
compassion and forgiveness.
Never forget how much God
loved you and show and share it.
Don't ever underestimate the
power of love and forgiveness.
Love is the ultimate thing
and it must triumph.
Reach out you must to others
and love deeply from your heart
for you are the extension of your
neighbor who unwittingly is yourself.
**** the ego and selfish pride and
embrace that which endears your heart.
Something must die within us for you
to let someone else in to live love.
Never forget that.
Show some love,
will you?

Exclusively unique,
never seen or

with heaven and earth

Called the children

Infused with the
breathe of life,
with so much love
in our hearts.
Possessors of heaven
and the earth.
Physically molded with
earthly dusty sand
full of atoms,
electrons and molecules,
vitalized by
hydrogen and oxygen.
Combination of the
supernatural and
tremendous enormous
power and energy,
all working in
synergy to give
and sustain life.
Animated by the
spirit.
Compacted and
encased in a body,
to be physical
and yet spiritual.
An entity of
the heavens,
living on earth.
Habitant of the
earth by day,
and of the
heaven by night.
Simultaneously
of the heaven
and the universe.
Mortality transformed
Into immortality
and forever alive.
Being transmogrified
to be an
exulted being
on earth per
excellence of heaven.

of the microcosmic.

passionately exquisite,
she is so polished
that I have never

She is Immaculately

Her beauty is supreme.
How could my

they were blinded
by her glittering

dazzled by its pureness,
a purity adorned with grace.
I am touched
by her decency,
moved to tears
by her softness,
with words watered
down to the tiniest detail,
beautiful to the core.
Her heart was pierced
and bleed out of any
imperfections within
but unwittingly configured,
prepared and upgraded.
We are now interwoven

Certainly heaven will
help us through this

Don't be distracted
Open your eyes
so you can see
the deception of magic
unfold before your eyes
Stay wake now
do not slumber
Stay home and
be alert
Through your window
peep in the dark
to watch this movie
It is about you
About your very life
Five big G
dancing in the air
on your streets.
Disguised as a
mechanic working even
in the rain.
No a technician,
planting his technology
in your frontyard,
no your backyard
unsolicited.
With impunity
they worked tirelessly.
No consent seemed,
that's how cruel
they are.
Robots are better,
they say.
Delibratly introducing
something new.
Artificial intelligence,
the next level.
Covid-19 vaccine,
to help you heal.
But microchip inserted,
unwittingly to monitor
your every move.
Digital certificate,
you must produce,
or no buying and
no selling allowed.
Don't think you
are safe.
To sleep with
a wild lion
or a cobra
is better than
a deluded and
demonic sick lunatic.
Stay awake and
stay home,
be safe but
don't be distracted.

business.

war over victory

that makes me

to earn it.

it and claim

he forgot to really live and
never remembered the
reason why he was here.
Forgetting he will never go
back home with anything he
accomplished and accumulates
but only the profound
experience garthered.
All his labors are in vain
for destruction still awaits him
for all the empires he built
must come down as past
experience has revealed
it's rise and fall.
Love is all he is required to learn,
to be compassionate,
full of bowel of mercies,
tolerant of the weak,
helpful in all his ways,
understanding in all his
decisions and dealings,
mindful in circumventing
circumstances,
corrupt free and upright,
polished and raised as
an exulted being
for he is not earthly.
Though partially living on
earth but just for awhile,
he is a resident alien of
the universe for he is
an extraterrestrial being
and must return to where
he came from.

I AM THAT
Emeka Mokeme Oct 2019
I am that
of which you
cannot fathom.

Deeper than what
you have ever seen.

You don't know
who i am.

I am a part
of that of
which you are.

I am more
than that which
i was before now.

And even more
than that which
i am now.

You have no
idea of what
I've become.

I am larger
than that of
whatever you
think I am.

I am of nature,
the water and
the wind.

I am the moon
and the stars,
untouched and far  
away from man.

The stars are
my many eyes
of which i see you.

With the moon,
i still see you
even in your darkness,
as I see you
with the brightness
of the sun.  

I am the sun,
the bringer and
giver of life.

I am the
life in your breathe,
pulsating inside you.

I am the thoughts
in your mind
seeking expression
through your mouth.

I am the eyes
of your soul
that sees what
the spirit reveals.

I am the
unspeakable words,
the unutterable
from the spirit.

I am the
invisible one,
i didn't choose this,
this chose me.

I am in the wind,
with the strength
that part and
breaks the sea.

I am the path
of life that
leads to the
great beyond.
Threaded only by
the brave.

I am,
that,
i am,
He said.

ACCEPT IT
Emeka Mokeme Apr 2019
Passing by the
stone slap,
the heart leads
to the quiet
red beautiful roses
symbolizing love.
Dwelling in the
garden for a
moment just
to see her,
the fragrance
subtly spreads to
speak for me.
It baffles me
how much i
love to see
her face as
she peeps from
the little window
of the mansion
as she senses
my presence.
Love it is
that binds the
heart of those
who seeks it.
Nothing more ever
can change their
heart.
Both are blinded
by reason of love.
Their ears can
no longer even
hear the quacks
of the ducklings
or even the
grasshopper nearby.
As the deep
calls out to
the deep,
even so their
heart is closed to
common reasoning.
Inseparable and ready
to confront any
challenges unto death,
so are the
things love and
loving can
do to you.
Don't waste this
lifetime without love
accept it even
as a souvenir.

REAL BEAUTY
Emeka Mokeme Mar 2019
Most things beautiful
fades with time.
Charm is deceptive,
beauty is vain
and not skin deep.
All is vainglory
and are temporal.
Beauty is like
the green leaves
at autumn season
that changed
their colors and
fall away.
Illusions of the
optical eyes are
actually like magic
in which things
are not what
they seem.
Objectify their form
and you will
see their difference
in appearance.
Nothing less and
nothing much can
be deduced out
of all their
shenanigans.
Behind the eyes,
hidden beneath
a wrinkled face
lies the beauty of
a beautiful soul.
In that subtle
solemn smile,
hidden in the
quietness of his
silence is the
true treasure of a
time tested wisdom
of the mystery
of his nature.
There is nothing
so passionately
exquisite than
an encounter with
a beautiful soul
with a mysterious
alluring smile that
revealed his
gracefulness.
Heaven is within
that soul,
touched by the
afflatus of the
spirit drawn from
the cosmic.
Never have i
seen anyone or
anything so magnificent
as a soul
touched by heaven.
Such is the
heart full of
love divine,
infused by the
hieros gamos,
the sacred marriage,
that makes mortals
into deities and,
possessors of heaven
and earth.
They are almost
equals to Angels.
Always doing good.

APPRECIATE LIFE
Emeka Mokeme Dec 2018
The blood is
the ink of life
where the blueprint
and secrets of
life are hidden,
flowing in your
veins like  
tributaries running
throughout your body
distributing life giving
energy force in
your being.
Vitalising the whole
system with ions
of vibrational sublime
subtle expression,
so full of spirituality.
Take care of
your body,
it's the only place
you have to live.
Impact the world
with your presence,
and your essence.
Sow and leave your
fingerprint in the world.
Plant seeds that will
bring forth good fruits.
Nurture your body
with utmost care,
support it and
pamper it with
so much love.
Entertain your body
for it is the
only castle where
your soul dwells.
There is no other,
no none like it.
Soak it with
your meditations,
exercise your body,
as well as your mind.
Take in breaths of
fresh air and water.
Spend time out
in the sun during
the day and the
moon at night,
watching the stars
glitter in the galaxy,
take in the beauty
of nature in your life
and appreciate with
Thanksgiving all it
has offered you.
Be happy with yourself.
Find meaning and
purpose in this life.
Listen,watch and pray,
keep your eyes to
the heavens.
Feed your body with
nature's natural food.
You'll be so glad
you did too.
With your abilities and
talents leave a mark
to be remembered
when you are gone.
And at the end yield
yourself to the call
of the divine with
gladness in your heart.

UNTIL THE MORNING GREETS ME
Emeka Mokeme Mar 2019
From my eyes,
you will see
the way my
heart feels
for you and
how much i
miss you.
There,
the tears of
love freely flows
like the stream
down my cheeks.
My face stained
of tears,
tells the tale of
how much all
these made
me feel.
From my shaky
strained voice,
you already
knew how much
I've cried.
But you'll never
see how my
heart really hurts.
The pain of
the brokenness is
what keeps
my heart awake
at night.
The thoughts of
you kills my joy
and rob me
of peaceful sleep.
This restlessness
makes me feel
like drinking tequila
tonight.
But I'll wait
awhile to see
if the humming birds
will bring the
news of you
in the morning.
This moment,
the road is
still empty of the
sight of you
as I watch.
Even now i
can't see the
dust on the road
rising to tell
me that you
are close by.
I will just
sit out here
tonight and watch
the moon and
count the stars
until the morning
greets me with
the songs of
the birds.

REVIVED
Emeka Mokeme Sep 2019
About this very time
sometime in time.

Unbelievable events that
left me speechless occurred.

So on and
so forth happened.

But i didn't do and
didn't say a thing.

As if dumb,
my mouth was mute.

My tongue stiff
as if stuck to the palate.

Everything failed.
My mind numbed.

With profound impact of
that force on my spirit.

My heart melted,
and my body weak.

As if weak on my knees,
i fainted with exhaustion.

But love came again and
revived me as strength came back.

The tired body received vigour
and as a unicorn resurrected.

Vitalised and awakened,
ready to take another chance.

No retreat,
no surrender for this is my morning.

JUST A DREAM
Emeka Mokeme Dec 2018
She lay quietly
submitted to the
warmth of my
body wrapped
so softly and
gently in my arms
feeling safe,
unperturbed by
the noise outside.
She lay asleep,
her breath so
soft on my cheek.
The flicker of
the moonlight reflects
on her face
as she lay
sleeping.
Her beauty as
if from another
sphere reminding me
the fairytale
of the mermaid.
She entangled her
leg around my
feet as if
she never wants
me to leave
her alone thereby
unwittingly forcing
me to lay
still until i
finally dozed off.
As I slept,
i dreamed of her.
I dreamt about us
playing in the garden
surrounded by beautiful
flowers and drinking
nectars from all
kinds of edible
flowers in honey water.
She looked into
my eyes to
make a toast
and as our
silver cup touched,
i woke up.
I woke up refreshed.
It was just a dream.

ADDICTED TO YOU
Emeka Mokeme Nov 2018
And she said,
don't mind him,
he will soon
leave just like
the others.
And I asked her,
with all seriousness,
do you smoke,
and she said no.
I said to her,
smoke me like
a cigarette,
so I'll touch
your lips always
and never leave.
I want to be
your addiction,
so you'll never
have to quit.
Let me be yours,
your very own.
Wear me like
your perfume,
so I'll always
accompany you
to wherever you go.
Wear me like a
locket on your neck,
so I'll always feel
your heartbeat.
Put me on
like a hat
on your head,
so I will always
be your covering.
Let me stick like the
shoes on your feet,
to feel the burden
of every step
you take.
I want to be that
flowery gown you wear
to beautiful places so
I'll never have to leave
because I'm also
addicted to you too.

THIS LONELINESS WITHIN.
Emeka Mokeme Mar 2018
Loneliness is here again,
smiling to my face to mock me.
It's presence is so chilling,
you can almost hear it's breath.
Sending the chills down my spine.
Who can take it away from me?
Connect me to the one who
has the power to
quiet my heart to this
overwhelming emptiness.
The pressure of it's presence
is almost consuming me.
It's foul breath stanching my nostrils
I almost choked.
I can feel it within wrapping
it's arms around me.
But the comfort of the
Holy Spirit can do wonders.
He is the only one
who settles all things.
His presence within heals.
The warmth of his unfolding
embrace is soothing,
he subtly nudged
this yoke away,
like the gate of brass,
breaking it's jaw with
his anointing presence.
This loneliness folded
his mat like the proverbial
Arabs in the lonely desert,
quietly in silence flee
with shame unnoticed
from my presence.
And now my heart is
eternally forever grateful.

QUIET REBEL
Emeka Mokeme Oct 2018
My only inheritance,
rekindled an old flame
long dead and forgotten,
scar of an old wound,
still so painful with so
much anguish and agony
with great struggles,
but I left with my
dignity in tact.
Something that
supposedly died
resurrected again,
It ended long ago
but now still alive.
Haunted by the
ghost in the dark,
the vampire pursued,
hungry for blood.
As a quiet and
silent rebel
against the tides
of the world
the heart is guilty of the
things left undone.
Great escape of the
innocent ones done.
Drop dead enacted
and engaged to
overcome the crisis.
The hustle is over,
and the circle
current stopped.
The blood ******* vampire
disappeared into oblivious
abyss and never to come back.
The true change has come
and restructuring is now in place.

SILENCE
Emeka Mokeme Jul 2019
Hush now and
be quiet,
your voice distracts
the calmness of
the heart.
Keep still at
this present moment,
the sound of
your shuffling feet
disturbs the silence.
With awe and humility,
humble yourselves
before your self.
Be silent,
speak only with
your heart,
Angels are listening,
even to your breathe.
Pause for a moment,
so you can
hear the whisperings and
unspeakable utterances
from other spheres.
Lift up your heart,
and let your soul
be immersed in
bliss unknown.
You will be
amazed and perplexed
at the impact
of the spectacular
and force
on your own spirit.
Be ever mindful
of whatever you
do at this moment
for the beauty
of the divine
will manifest itself.
Everything dies,
to sprout again
in the brightness
of his glory.
By reason of sin,
all filthiness of
body and mind
is purified
and the heart
restored to glory.
Don't come too
close with an
impure heart,
peradventure you
are but defiled and
touched by the
impurities of our
down world.
But never mind,
the brightness of
their glorious presence
will purify you.

HE STRIKES
Emeka Mokeme May 2019
In this
strange city
where everyone
is corrupt and
must survive
by crooked way.
People around
are suspicious
of themselves.
You also
often think
of the trouble
and tricks of
the cunning
craftiness ones.
To avoid them
is difficult.
Once you give
warmth to the
wrong person,
you lose all.
You will never
know the sound
of the song
of your own
heart and voice.
The infinite beauty
of your essence
will melt away.
But beware of
the quiet man
who always keeps
quiet in the
midst of others.
For while others
speak and blab,
he watches.
And while others
act out their follies,
he plans.
And when they
finally rest,
he strikes.

SILHOUETTE

The sunset made
the sky look
beautiful and colorful,
reflecting on
the beach water
with shimmering hues
of beauty.
The seagulls
as if satisfied
for the moment,
gave their final call
to bid the day
good bye.
The girl stood
on the coast
and looked into
the distance.
Her figure
was very beautiful
and alluringly attractive.
Unimaginably blending
beautifully with
the scenario,
her silhouette casting
a dreamy shadow
of mesmerizing beauty
as if stolen
from the spirits,
giving it an
illusion of magic.
This is a
special magical evening,
enchanting with a
supernatural occurrence.
The stars displayed
their beauty as
they glow and
glitter in joy
making the moment
captivating and yet
so subtle you
can hardly notice it.
Tonight,
a star is born.

LOVING EACH OTHER
Emeka Mokeme Sep 2019
Embrace each other
but in-brace
in love,
touch each others
soul with the
beauty of your heart,
but feel the flutters
of love deeply
as if drunk
on the wine
of your love.
Know but understand
the very mind
and being of
each other.
You are truly in love:
very much in love.
Embrace each other
with everything
that's in you
to be fused
together as one.
Never ever
let go in
your heart the
one you love,
hold on tight
with your hands
as well as
with your embrace.
Your lives are
intertwined and
woven by love.
The thin line
that binds you
together as one
will definitely and
eventually disappear
after a while.
Be interested in
each others
well-being and
nurture yourselves.
Bliss and peace
shall be
your potions.
Don't worry about
the deep end
of the darkness,
but just float.
For your heart
will fly upward
towards the
morning sun to
be invigorated again
after every dip
in life's storm.

BEFORE MY EYES

What my heart
sees is the
beauty in you.

And my eyes
beheld the reflection
and silhouette of
your essence.

To feel you
is what my
heart desires.

The universe shrinks
before my eyes
becoming the ions drops
in eternity binding
the feminine shape
of you.

This happens when
two worlds collides.

There's no breath
except the breathe
of you.

There's no air
except the power
of the wind.

There's no thirst
except for the
taste of water.

There's no light
except the sparkle
of the sun.

There's no moonlight
or the twinkling stars
except the brightness
of your soul.

There's no soul
except the spirit
inhabits the body.

There's no life
except the
quickening spirit.

With the light
in your eyes
and the sun
in your smile,
you shine and
radiates beautifully.

And now
because of love,
our lives merged
becoming one.

THE ANIMAL IN MAN
Emeka Mokeme Jun 2018
Human life is molded in
the image of the Almighty.
Not by the hands of man,
but by the one who made
the heaven and the earth.
He endowed man with powers,
with the authority to have
dominion over all things created,
and to have them as food.
Human species are of a higher quality,
and not at all equal to the lower
animal kingdom.
But man is superior and made just
a little lower than the Angels.
No man can be killed for the
sake of an animal of a lower kingdom.
Animals can never take the place of any human.
They can never rule man,
that is a natural order of things.
Only a deluded mind will wipe out an entire tribe and communities for the sake of
the lost animals.
No animal ever created is to be compared to the life of a glorious man.
It can never be argued by any sane judgment or reasoned out by any rational thought.
Take away the animal in those who live like one to feel the beauty of being a human,
only then will the killing stops.

BEAUTIFULLY GRACIOUS
Emeka Mokeme Jul 2019
Sad beautiful truth
we must confront.
Love has wings,
flies away when
not nurtured and
if iniquity wraps
the heart.
Love with all
your heart at
this present moment,
before your morning
turn into night.
Love stays
only when your
ego dies.
It will embrace
your heart,
only if you can
genuinely forgive
yourself and the
one you hurt.
Love kills the
pride of self
with its light,
piercing softly through
the darkness of
the soul.
Softly it binds the
two hearts together.
Nothing can be
more beautifully gracious
than hope uniting
two in love
making them one.

in forgiveness,

Be patient

and daily break fast.
Embrace me as
if you'll never
see me again
and I'll never
go away.
As a fragrance
of ylang-ylang and
lilac oil perfume,
I'll stick with
you like a
beautiful body odour.
Like a dance
to a serenade
of a beautiful orchestra,
you float like
an angel as
i watch you
take a walk
in the garden
this morning.
You are a
beautiful gift from
the gods and
I'll never finish
unwrapping you
in this lifetime.

divine plan of
creation we have
a part and

prepared for us.
Everything was prearranged

you in mind.
And you are
endowed with the
nous of the
cosmic consciousness.
Nature was very
mindful of you,
that it works
with effortless effort
around you with
tremendous impact
just to put
things in place
just for you.
Who are we
that the universe
is so mindful of us.
With love it
forgives our unknowing
and our follies,
guiding and guarding
us with grace
and patience.
With infinite mercy
and charity he
leads us to
the evergreen pastures.
Quench our thirst
with the water
of life.
Can we just
for a moment,
just this moment,
treat yourself and
others right

A PRODIGAL SON
Emeka Mokeme Apr 2019
He didn’t know
what it meant
to be a
son until he
became a father
of a son
who doesn't know
how to be
a true son.
A son who
acts like a
stranger in his
own home and
not comfortable
in his own skin.
Prodigal son
regrettably.
Prideful and
stubbornness are
wrapped up in him.
Messed up with
drugs and alcohol
and women.
A thief and
a bisexual young
man so lost
in the wildernesses
of life.
Without help he
will be consumed.
An only son.
Always away
from home,
a hobo seeking
for something
he doesn't know
or understand.
He doesn't even
know that
the sun has
set for him.
Said he didn't
want to inherit
the ignorance
of the father,
because he doesn't
want to follow
a decent path
to earn a living.
Doesn't want to
be counselled
or educated in
the rudiments of life.
He seems to
forget that
a man cannot
have a son
before his father.
He wished the
son is smart
enough to see
how dumb he is.
Still loves him
so very much
but it breaks
his heart to
see what the
son is doing
to himself.
