Untitled
Emmanuel Umoh May 2020
Just like the tears falling from the sky
So is my heart bleeding in style for you
Too scared to loose you
And too scared to hold you tide
I wonder In my heart all day what will
Happen if I hold you too firm
Scared of breaking you like a fragile glass.

Beautiful
Emmanuel Umoh Apr 2020
Beautiful is what I call you,
Adorable is how I describe you,
One so tender that the birth of two can not fade away your beautiful youthful figure,

I wish I was a love Poet, i would have written a poem about how your beauty swept me off my feet the first time we met.

I would have written about how you have the audacity to be beautiful even when everything around you seems to be urgly.

I wish I was a love Poet,
I would have write about how your name truly portray your personality.

UCHE was just the name you deserve.

U-you are just UNIGUE among God's creation.

C- COURAGEOUS is what you are in the face of challenges.

H- it would cost me nothing to leave my heart with you because your HONESTY is tempting.

E- i remember every time we had an appointment, then I realized how EARNEST you are.

It is an unexplainable privilege to be given this mouth watering opportunity to describe you for who you are.

To a long time loyal friend in the legal profession.

I Will Wait
Emmanuel Umoh Apr 2020
Loneliness has suddenly becomes my closest friend,
Sadness has come to embrace me closer than the embrace of a child to his mother,

Happiness sees me from a distance and change its direction,
But yet I was hopeful that tomorrow would be great,
That was before I received an sms from my fiancee telling me it is over,

And then I told myself you have no more course to live for,
Then and there I was ready to do away with the empty attempt of deception self molestation called existence.

My phone beep twice for a call signal and I said this will be my last,

The number was familiar before I realize it was Cecilia calling, my already ex fiancee,

I was hopeful again before her apologising voice drop on the phone,
"Sorry babe that message was not for you, it was for another guy"

That was my second death in the same body.

Was I created to carry all the problem of the world,

Well I will just seat here and wait until they is no more joy or happiness left in my vain.

Then I will just be a plain sheet to start all over again.

Unspoken
Emmanuel Umoh Apr 2020
As I seat across the room,
Starring at you,
Speechless.
All I want to do, is to talk to you,
I my genius mind I am an eloquent speaker,
But in you present all I can find of my self is a dumb toddler.
Then i gather up the courage to talk to you,
But when we met all I could say was Hi!
Then I told you how your beauty as become my source of photosynthesis,
How you have the odercity to be beautiful,
Even when everything around you seem to be urgly,
How having you in my head as my girl has raise my physical ego and make,
People think I have become proud.

And in all of that,
She looks at me and ask
"How do you feel about me"?

— The End —
