As I gaze upon you, then upon myself,
Contemplating the chasm between us,
Wondering if it's a mere illusion,
Crafted by the naivety of my mind.
Each time our eyes meet, a surge of hope fills my heart,
Yet, my rational mind interjects with caution,
Urging me not to entertain such thoughts.
Here I sit, amidst the swirling uncertainty,
Torn between the possibility of what could be,
And the harsh reality of what may never come to pass.
Am I foolish to harbor dreams of connection,
Or am I simply blind to the truth that lies before us?
With every fleeting moment, my courage wanes,
But deep within, I know I cannot remain silent forever.
For if destiny deems it so, our paths shall converge,
But if not, I shall face the inevitable truth,
Braving the shards of a shattered heart.
Nevertheless, amidst the tumultuous journey,
I hold onto the unwavering belief,
That in the grand tapestry of life,
Love will ultimately emerge victorious. Hopefully 🤞🏾

They whispered warnings of the trials ahead,
"What do they know," I scoffed, dismissing their counsel,
Convinced my journey would chart a different course.
Oh, how I yearn to rewind time,
To heed the wisdom I now recognize as golden.
If only foresight had guided my steps,
But alas, here I stand, grappling with harsh reality.
Life's relentless blows have left me bruised and battered,
Each night a restless slumber, hoping for a dawn of reprieve.
Yet, the weight of bills besieges my doorstep,
A mountainous burden obscuring any glimpse of a brighter tomorrow.
**** it all!
I strain to discern even the faintest glimmer of hope,
But my vision is clouded, my gaze fixed firmly upon the ground.
Is this my fate, I wonder,
To stumble blindly through the shadows of despair?
Or perhaps, amidst the chaos, an opportunity has already beckoned,
Yet my eyes were too veiled to perceive its subtle call.
So here I linger, suspended in the limbo of uncertainty,
Awaiting the elusive knock that may herald a new beginning,
Or lamenting the missed chances, forever haunting my past.

What do you do
When your life is going downhill
Do you sit and watch?
Do you take action???
WHAT ACTION!!!
You mere strength won’t stop it from crashing
With no one to rely on
Who do you turn to
Do you give up?
Should you…give up???
What if you give up
What’s next???!!!
QUESTIONS LEFT UNANSWERED

Who am i?
The one question we always fail
Am i cool?
Am i social ?
Am i likable?
Why do these matter
lets just be ourself
Rather than lose ourselves under pretence

I have travelled far and wide
Been through most continents
Meet up with thousand of them
Most of them drooling over me
Wishing me for themselves  
But my eyes were only for the intended
YOU

Now i sit here next to you
You pretend you ain't intrested
Pretending i **** exist
Surely i don't deserve this
But my heart fail me for you are my weakness
For you i let down my guards
But you still don't burge


Open your eyes
Look at what on your plate
Stop drooling over what over the counter
Through thick and thin am here for you
But you act like i dont exist
Nothing last forever
Love fades when not maintained
You gonna miss me when am gone

LOVE
I love you
You are my queen and i your king
Ruling over the kingdom of our love
Our love burning so bright like a magnesium flame in the dark
You shine brighter than a diamond
Your smile is my weakness but also my greatest strength
You give me a purpose to live on
You know my darkest secrets,my worst fears,my likes,my hates but what i never want you to forget is my sincere feelings towards you
I promise to handle our love carefully and gently like an egg
but
i also promise to hit you hard with my love like a tornado storm that you will only end up wanting more of it
One look from you is enough to drive me into a hypnotic state that can only be broken by a passionate kiss from your sweet soft warm wet lips
There is not enough words in this world to describe how i feel towards you
But
atleast i can give you a heads up by telling you this...the very reason i breath is to be with you and explore the wonders of this earth with you
I LOVE YOU

The feelings i have
The burning love desire within
The emotions i struggle with
The thoughts of us
All of them left unspoken

Now i suffer in silence
Seeing you with him
To you am just a friend
A 'bro' you can confide in on your affairs
Though i live forever hoping
Of what we could be

Whenever your pearl shiny eyes fall upon mine
My proud spirit grows meek
Your undeniable beauty confuses the rhythm of my heartbeat
In you i confide in my emotions towards you
But...for you its all a joke

— The End —
