why is that when I close my eyes I see you
why do I smell you everywhere
why do I need you even though sometimes I act like I don't
wait that was foolish- I do need you
Stars don't need the earth
but the earth need the stars.
The brain needs the mouth
likewise so I need you.

reddish, relish sometimes look fetish
hot beans is my desire
by every means I must have this fire
can I have it with corn
even though sometimes it looks like ****
no give me with bread
but it smells like the drugs I dread
I really cannot decide
I don't want to sell my birth right
so I fill my hunger with the water
that comes from osimiri atatata
I find my path back to the way that I AM made
from there Irun away from the raid
that the devil has laid.

Beyond the keyboard
I see you smile
Beyond that emoji  
I know you are mine.
Beyond the calls
I see you through the phone
Beyond the voice notes
I see your intentions
Beyond the reaction
I see your action
This is more than I can feel
But love is more than feelings.

NAP
Old long scrolls on my phone
Like a never ending zombie
Is this the life that we all live
Looking at others highs
Likes and follows on their photos  
....it's seems like a never ending cycle
Like I am their disciple
Even though I'm not in their circle...
All I just need to do is stop,
Leave the app
Close my phone and go take a nap.

Like a young ******
racing in the bush with my wedding dress
will I pant after my groom
for he is more perfect than ten thousands of them
His love has killed me
I am no longer mine...
no, I refuse to be mine  
My groom is the fairest of them all
oh the day I finally see him
I will leap for joy.
For he has me in his mind so do I
Like fire in my heart

What would you say about Hannah
barren but believing
son but prophet  
mocked but enlightened
drunken or broken.  
What would you say about Mary
young and ******
****** but pregnant  
son or saviour
morther or vessel
What would you say about Elizabeth
old but strong
son or voice
delayed but blessed
What would you say about Eve
dead but first
deceived or privileged
failed or purposed
mother of all living things
There is hope for a tree
because at the scent of water it shall spring to life
you too can have hope, can't wait fo the men POV

Unclean, unclean
They called me
Been like that for 12 years running
But the day I saw Him
Faith lit the way

And that's 12 years of pain gone
Lost many blood, but he gave me one
Reason to look on
The bright future
Of believing in Jesus
