Olamilekan: Poems

Olamilekan 1d

When dreams take flight, you're on my mind,
As morning sunshine greets the day,
Birds sing sweet melodies, leaves dance in the breeze,
My thoughts are filled with you, my love, always.

I yearn to hold you close, to feel your arms,
To hear your laughter, to cherish every moment's charm.
Distance may separate us, but my love remains,
Unwavering, unshaken, through joy and pains.

My heart beats patiently, holding love for you alone,
Reliving precious memories, each kiss, each tender tone.
As I await your return, I hold on to hope,
For a future together, where love will forever cope.

Scars like blue print

Olamilekan 1d

Scars like blue print

Life doesn't come with a map.
It throws curveballs, storms, and silence.
You take the hits. You get back up.
You wear the scars like armor—not shame.

Not everyone's going to clap when you rise—
Good. You're not here for their applause.
You're here to own your story,
Not beg for a role in someone else's.

The world will try to crush you.
Lie to you.
Tell you you're too much, or not enough.
Laugh when you fall.
Doubt when you speak.
But guess what?

They don’t get to define you.
You are forged, not broken.
Bent, not beaten.
Every bruise is a blueprint.
Every fall, fuel.

So break the rules they wrote for you.
Set fire to the limits.
And walk—no, run—into the life
you were told you couldn't have.

— The End —
