Music
In my down moment,
It is what resusticate my mind
While I lay in my basement.
My whole thoughts left behind
As the melody permeates..
The beautiful harmonies it creates.

The lyrics is haven.
Have you heard  helium or maybe seven?
Sometimes, I try to sing along
Even when I know the words I get so wrong.
When they pitch, I wait to feel
Myself I pinch.. could this be real??

On my ears you'll find my earpiece
The soft beats gives me inner peace

It reaches straight to my heart
The joy I can't contain as I have to share it.
Music is a whole mood.
It's my souls food
It ignites my spirit..
With it I know no limit.

I deserved better
You can't sit up
You fell too fast
I won't give up..
You are not my last

You were my flower
Then you became a lime
Now our love is sour
Maybe, you weren't really mine.

Maybe, I do need to let go
Maybe, it was pride or ego

Problems with the motion
Issues with devotion

Your apologies were over due
I've moved on..I'm over you

You aimed the arrow at me and shot my heart.
And then, The love I had depart.

When you left,I realized much later
That I deserved better

You were my cloud
You ripped me in two

The tear was so loud..
I was never the one you were into.

Toxic people
Their words are deep
My sword I'll keep.
When they spew negativity,
Know it's a bad activity.
They trust their facts
And you fall off track.
They blame it on you
And there's nothing you can do.
They destroy your leams
and stomp on your dreams
They fake their smile
They're just too vile

Nature
The elephant trumpets
Nature's sun sets..
The giraffes protrudes their long necks
In search of twigs and shrubs.
The lion gives the loudest roar as it treks to find its prey or it strubs.
Nature's awake
The sound of crickets are heard
Deers drinking water from the lake..
The bark of trees completely teared
By squirrels and beavers.
And then, spiders - the web weavers
They spin Thier silk
To catch their prey.
They are sometimes black, brown or grey.
The cattle - Known for its milk,
The caterpillar spins itself a cocoon
Within, it transforms and emerges into a moth.
Oh..I'm in love with the moon
Each star in the sky are of great worth.
In the deepest of oceans
You will find my heart..
The tallest of trees that leans
Above the horizon, you will find art
I'm in love with the journey of life
Nature's my after life..

Lonely
I'm drunk on the idea of us together.
Snuggling under duvets talking like forever
At least for one moment in a day,
I hope I crossed into your thoughts..
Because, you have no idea I feel this way.
You had us fighting like tots
It was the way you looked at me
Like we were never meant to be
I knew you were leaving
It was never arguing.
It was not sad how I was after you've gone..
It was realising all the things we did together, i'll now do alone.

The hubbub
Gnashing my teeth
as I walked down the street
There I saw , angry mob gathered at a spot.
There was an uproar I could hardly hear a thing they said.
I drew closer, I could hear them scream
They said they robbed a shop and stole a lot.
Battered and bruised, on the ground they laid.
Helplessly begging as tears rolled down the ground like a stream.
Their clothes tore as they were forced to take a stand.
They were shoved and dragged to the station.
They arrived, but couldn't move any longer as they fell on the sand.
They were interrogated by the officers and all stolen items they were asked to mention.
They did as they were told
As they saw the mob was furious and cold.
The two were put behind bars
And the angry mob left mumbling as they crossed the road with tars.

Oh..what a day!
This happened during may.

Hind sight
I'm searching for that long ago
When joy and youth was mine
My once upon a time
Memories I will never forgo
Reflecting,
I find different perspectives..
In the my worst and best days..
I don't need to know what the future's saying..
My hindsight says.
Because, if the past could talk it would give me these directives.

love yourself more
Believe in yourself to the core.

Stop trying to make everyone else happy.
You're not a puppy.

Eliminate toxic people from your life
They are particularly rife.

Where  passion, purpose and skill collides
Abundant bliss resides.

You are good enough!
Don't be afraid to voice out. Be tough!

Don't shy away from things that brings you out of your comfort zone.
You're not a lone.
Think rationally.. don't let your emotions
Control your decisions.
Never give into a bully.
Don't be  cully.
You're allowed to feel
But, if in the process you break..
Don't be an emotional wreck
You ...All by Yourself can heal
Thank you for teaching me to Keep my head held high
And the readiness to face any challenge that comes nigh

Monovie
Her contagious smile made our hearts rejoice with glee.
I never thought a spirit like hers would ever fall down and flee.
Silence they say it's golden but not anymore.
It brings thoughts I just can't ignore.
I which I could embrace you
And just see your face
But now I have memories
To stand in your place.
Sorry for the fights and arguments we had
Unspoken words you left behind.
Undone things we'll never do. Phew!
No thought of mine you never knew.
I miss you every single day
I wish you were here
But I will see you some day
Forever etched in my memory 💕
I love you ..
A dirgy for my late elder sister. Her name was monovie..she was a built in best friend..my favourite sibling..her death kept me devastated for weeks.. I still wish I could see her and tell her about what has been happening in her absence...laugh about things till our cheeks hurt. I really missed her.

Shredded
They say shots of whiskey can cure heartaches
But the burn isn't as agonizing
As standing in my room alone - My head aches
It's so devastating!
Starring at all the empty spaces
Your belongings once filled
The feelings I killed..
I'm left with these braces

— The End —
