Why am I still holding on
You already left me before I realised you were gone
You made my heart a personal hell
And left me there alone to burn

I cried so hard during the nights,
I felt my heart searching for the light
Maybe at the end of the tunnel, right before that bend
It will be there for me, looking so bright

I hope you die and crash and burn
And then i'd laugh 'cos now it's your turn
A sight it would be to watch you cry
'Cos baby, your sorrow is now my fun
Immense sadness leads to sadism.... the aftermath of a broken heart is emptiness,...emptiness that breeds within itself a monster.
Emmanuel Coker Jan 2017
Sugar on your lips
I like the taste
My hands on your hips
Makes home on your waist

Pull me in close
Let's ignite a flame
You are a drug i overdose
I'm a wild dog you need to tame

Honey from your tongue
I take a sip
It is with you I belong
Your being is my keep
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2015
Let me tell you about my baby
She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen
And my baby is such a classy lady
But she's not proud, 'cos pride is a mortal sin
My baby's got the key to drive me crazy
But she likes her place in the passenger's seat

Let me tell you about my lady
My lady acts tough, but she's as cute as a baby
And something about her that drives me crazy
Is that...she knows what she wants, there's no maybe.

Let me tell you about my baby
My baby is the best 'cos she makes me happy
She calls me her baby and I call her my lady
And we love each other like crazy
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
I woke up today
I can't say much of the people I slept with yesterday
Some woke with problems, while most passed away
But he gave me the grace to stay another day
I'm filled with joyful songs and words to say
Because through thick and thin he paved my way
Even though I was unworthy, he still chose to stay
I was pulled by the world and led astray
I realised this and dropped on my knees to pray
Father Lord, here I am do not drive me away
I have sinned and I know I've got my price to pay
I need your blood to cleanse me and wash this sins away
In only you I will trust for you do not betray
And in your cosy ***** i'll love to lay.

I know that Jesus 'still alive I can feel him breathing
So all I just gotta do is pray and keep believing
Emmanuel Coker Jul 2018
What is this blinding light?
What is the meaning of life?
If I was born to survive in a world that eventually succumbs to death.

Who was asked to be created?
I wouldn't mind to be sedated.
To sleep through all this and wake up to be greeted with a happy belated, and they tell me I made it past Armageddon and the world is never ending, it actually just begun.
Emmanuel Coker Nov 2018
I make so many new beginnings,
I doubt there'd ever be an end.

My life’s script keeps changing,
‘Guess the writer is getting over his head.

My new beginnings don't come with the seasons, They are conceived as soon as they wish, and I am convinced as soon as they reach.

I make so many new beginnings,
I don't know where the old ones went.

And once I'm off track on my new path,
I just switch lanes and draft up a new chart.

On nights like this,
My baby is finger-licking delicious.
She makes my fingers fill with honey, sweet honey, wet honey, as she **** for me.
Don't take a peek into her honey ***,
It's fiery red inside.
It's bakery hot inside.
On nights like this,
My baby is blazing red fire,
And I'm glistening dark skin bathed in our sweat,
My hands call for her body as they glue onto her skin, her being calls for an ****** and now she's holding on tight to the bed sheets.
The bed sheets, soaked bed sheets, I lay a peck on my baby's *******, so ****, so tempting, I slowly commence the “prone bone”.
On nights like this,
My baby is jaw dropping gorgeous whenever she's on her kneels.
I grunt and I puff, but my baby is a musical genius. And If I were to be serious,
On nights like this,
My baby is the only one I'd be with.
Emmanuel Coker May 2016
No one is everything
We are all just bits and parts of a bigger something.
That's why at certain points, certain times and certain aspects of our lives, we feel the need to want others in our lives,
Because we need other people to feel complete.
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2015
I don't think they understand
The thoughts that run in my head
I don't think they understand
The reason I lay awake on my bed

I don't think I understand
The thoughts that run in my head
I don't think I understand
The reason I lay awake on my bed

So why should they?
Emmanuel Coker Jun 2016
We rush things up skipping the foreplay
I obey all your commands, as you are the only one with words to say
Your legs arched up, move in a dramatic sway
You tell me to keep hitting it, because you like it this way

Telling me you are ready
I slide into you, making love to you steady
The beating on the zinc roof indicates the rain is quite heavy
And you whisper slowly into my ears, ‘that’s it baby’

The cold from the weather could not overcome the heat
From the *** we had, after moving to the dining seat
I should ask for your name, in case of the next time we meet
This shouldn't be a fling, rather it should be kept on repeat.
Emmanuel Coker Jan 2020
Why do you act as though not being normal isn't a normal thing?

The world is not normal,
And to you that's a normal thing.

I'm not normal.
And to me that's perfectly normal
Emmanuel Coker Apr 2015
I've got poetic licence
So I can right however I want.
Even if whatever I right doesn't make sense
I kan right with whichever font.

I use my poetic licence in whatever I right
An sometimes, de thins I right does not look write

I have de power power 2 repeat rhymes
Over and over countless of times
I use abbreviations in de mst unusual ways
My, commas, and!!!!!, escalations, marks come!!! as they may!!!!

I've got poetic licence cos I am a poet
I use it in odes, elegys, ballads, epitaphs, and sometimes in sonnets.
I am never rong.
And with my poetic license I will remain strung.
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
I saw her first under the sunlight rays
Her beautiful face, sparkling like a silver plate
On my bed I counted for days
Sometimes daydream and fall asleep late
Crucify me, for her sins I will pay
Oh!, what has befallen me, an ill luck fate??
She stole my heart, and for that I won't cease
To stop calling her the queen of thieves
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2014
Someone once asked me

Why are your poems so dark?
Why is your light so black?
Why is your face so sad?
And why are you so clad?
If you die tonight, would you be glad?
To give your life up, and raise the white flag...
Do you seldom feel like to pack your bags?
Just up and leave, because your life is a ***?
Do you do these things because you miss your dad?
You feel a little bit close to him as you write about death on your pad?
Do you think you deserve less than you've had?
Or you think your good will outweigh the bad?

This someone never felt the need to know the answers to this questions
This someone knew the answers, hearing them would be like a priest hearing his own confessions
This someone wasn't a he, this someone wasn't a she
This someone was me
Emmanuel Coker Dec 2014
Like a ship
I watched you leave the shores of my heart
And with the tides in your favour
You sailed and never looked back

But then....your ship sank :p
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2018
And if happiness is free,
Then freedom is a currency I can't currently afford.
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2018
Give me that ****** healing,
The type that takes me to the ceiling,
The type that leaves me hot and chilling,
The type that makes me want this feeling.

Give me that ****** healing,
Early in the morning, noon or evening,
Your *** leaves me with a tingling,
It's sweeter than any spice or seasoning.

I’d give you that ****** healing,
I'll make you want more when you see me
I'd **** your brains out like I mean it.
The end of this would be the beginning.
Emmanuel Coker Aug 2016
I'd still love her with all her flaws
She is mine not yours
For her I'd break down many doors
She is mine not yours
**** your rules, **** your laws
Cos’ she is mine not yours
They say I am under a curse
Well she is still mine not yours
They say fighting for her is not a just cause
But she is still mine not yours
And for her my domino would always fall
Because she is mine and not yours.
Emmanuel Coker Jan 2020
I've learnt a lot.
You want to test my knowledge?
Then ask me to render a thought.
And if you ask me,

I'd say;
I've learnt to read in-between the lines of everything, just like a blind man reading Braille.

I've seen the black and I've noticed the white,
And so I'd know very much, when you are greying the lines.
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
Sing a song
For our heroes past
Our wars they fought for long
Our cries fuelled their thirst
Oh young lads, mourn and beat the gong
For death came for them all at last

Sing a song
For our ***** friends
Our pains they felt
Broken hearts they mend
And with their radiant smile
For us they could walk a thousand mile

Sing a song
For our daring mothers
Nine months they strived
Death, they might have bribed
Watching us crawl brought tears to their eyes
And their only goal, is to watch us rise

Sing a song
For our now leaders
Promises they made before gotten desires
Our sweats for cars, villas, and empires
Oh ye children are the leaders of tomorrow
But still, we are inflicted with pains and sorrows
Greed comes with a blind fold, disguising who to follow
But let's just keep calm, and hope for a better tomorrow
Emmanuel Coker Nov 2014
Just like how the Jesus in the Christian’s bible
Turned water to wine
I will hold you at gunpoint with my heart's rifle
And make all your being be mine
....Magic!!
Emmanuel Coker May 2016
You have a spot in my heart
That will always be yours
You will never come last
You would always be first
I've forgotten my past
You are my only cause
I fell in love so fast
My heart skipped a pause
And when we kissed at last
It was such a rush
Emmanuel Coker Dec 2015
I remember what we did last night
I still picture you in those **** tights
******* pulled down in a brilliant flash
Unveiling what was once carefully stashed

The taste of your lips linger in my mouth
And you know I love when it makes a pout
We never really know what this is about
Even when everything seems to be going south

But what really matters is the fact,
That whatever we’re into doesn’t require a pact
So when I called you over to my house
You came running without your blouse

The ignition wasn’t off in your car
You stood by the door, looking hot as hell in your bra
Taking my shirt off and dropping it on the floor
You waltzed in further, slamming behind you, the door

I rose to meet your gaze as my hands fell on your hip
But you also rose to meet my pace and gently undid my zip
A little bit of nibbling and a series of selective pecks
I caressed your face and softly kissed you on the neck

You hungered and ached for me to feel you from the inside
Your knees grew weak, as my fingers went in with an easy slide
Moaning with pleasure as I took you on a pleasure ride
You pushed me over, telling me to hit it from the other side

It took a little of my time before I was finally done
I then laid on my back, eagerly awaiting my turn
You held on to my shaft, saying to me ‘let’s have some fun’
And before I knew it, your tongue was on it, in a circular motion

After you were done, you looked up to me straight
And as we stared into each other’s eyes like we were new soul mates
You climbed on top of me, guiding me to your holy gate
And I moved slowly inside, treading carefully in a foreign state

I laid you on your back and went in slowly and nice
And with every move I made, you had this look in your eyes
I whispered to you ‘I love you’, even when you knew it was a lie
But you didn’t care about that, cos’ you were about to *** twice

Every ****** I made, took you to a new height
I couldn’t get enough, cos’ to God who made me you felt tight
My muscles ached as I made love to you with all my might
And you didn’t let go, not until we were through with the night

What went on later seems to be a blur
I can’t tell how long we held on for
But I know it was a sweet surrender
When as captives of lust, we freed ourselves together
Emmanuel Coker Nov 2017
She's the type of candy that gives every man that comes across her path a sweet tooth.
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2014
A tale to you I tell
From the inner depths of hell
To a woman's clutches I fell
Or should I call her a girl?
A rugged life I led,
Stealing from the rich I fled
With beautiful roses and pearls
Given to her with shells
From the inner depths of hell
A tale, to you I tell
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2015
I know this isn't a phase
I think i'd just cover my face
Stop before the start of the race
And just never leave this place

This is who I am
I am a loner
Emmanuel Coker Nov 2014
I cried today for the first time in years
I cried today, and they were real tears
I cried not because I conquered my fears
Or because I lost all that was dear

I cried today, shedding tears like the rain
I cried today, letting go of all the pain
I cried so much, again and again
And these were tears I couldn't restrain

I cried today, cos' I finally understood me
Knowing fully well all that I could ever be
I lived in the shadows where no one could see
A prisoner to my thoughts wanting to be free

I cried today and these were tears of joy
I cried today, knowing I am a new born
A freed man, that was locked in the skin of a boy
A freed man whose life has just begun

I cried today and they were real tears
I cried today for the first time in many years
Emmanuel Coker Jan 2020
I pretend I'm in love;
when I'm not.
I pretend I'm in love,
when it's lust.
I pretend that I'm numb,
but it hurts.
I pretend that it's found,
but I'm lost.

I pretend to pretend that nothing hurts.
My defence is the art of pretence…
when it all gets too much
Emmanuel Coker Feb 2015
The blacksmith

He sees what he wants and he approaches it
Strikes a deal with this item
And starts his work on it

'baby you are looking fat' he says, 'why don't you sign up at the nearest gym'
'baby, this make up is a bit much, why don't you cut down on it'
'baby, you should dress like this, I prefer mini skirts to long trousers'
'I don't think I like your friend, she makes me feel uncomfortable, stop talking to her'

He makes all this changes and more to his new item, looking now at the finished product, he detests the works of his own hands, but why, he created this, he made and shaped this item into his own liking, lo has he outgrown it?, like a little child, has he found a better thing to call toy?, like a blacksmith, he'd leave the works of his hands to attend to a new one....blacksmiths are not contented, they strive for perfection, the perfect sword, the perfect shield, the perfect girl.
Little do they know, to be perfect is to be contented.

Pray you don't come across a blacksmith :)
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
It's a place filled with red
Burning flames hurting the dead
They didn't listen, but they heard
About the messiah, and all he said

It's a place filled with light
The Messiah's home, looking so bright
Golden gates made of white
Opened for only those who did right

The choice is yours
Hell is wide with open doors
Either stay wrong or right your flaws
Heaven is yours, if you abide by his laws
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
I am not aware of my being
I sometimes drift into a void of darkness
Moments soon, paranoia kicks in
I manage to bring out a smile
From the remains of what I call a mouth

Loneliness fuels the fire of sadness
My happiness refuses to quench
Moments later, I get lost
Not in the void, but in my thoughts
Thoughts as to why i'm not aware
Of my being??....No!
But the reason to my sadness
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2018
Some days like today,
I feel weak, everything seems bleak,
And a voice inside me begins to say,
The dead ones are free.

Some days like today,
I feel like I've been cheated,
Off of the life I really wanted to live.
I cheated myself and I can't live with the consequences…
So the voice inside me begins to say,
The dead ones are free.

Some days like today,
I need help but I'm scared to admit,
I'm not suicidal, don't put me on trial,
Maybe if you can sit and listen,
Maybe you'd hear the voice inside me beginning to say…
The dead ones are free.
The dead ones are free.
The dead ones are free.
The dead ones are free.
And they want us to just see.
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
The darkness is here
It's come to stay,
And with it comes fear
Inside the void I heard them say
We've come for you and all you hold dear
I'm scared friend, i'm scared
Why must the end begin with fear
It's been crushed, that hope for a brighter day
Alas, I am to go with them
To a place, farther than heaven's bay
Friend, I have no reason to stay
For in moments time I will wake
In another world, in another place
The end is here
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
I am the wind that blows your hair
I am the sun up the summer sky
I am the water that flows in the spring
I am the brightest amongst the stars

Again I saw them grieve at the grave
A nice speech the eulogist gave
Oh dear friends, weep no more
For if anyone should ask
I am not there...
I did not die!!!
Emmanuel Coker Jan 2020
I want to walk with you,
Walk with you on the busy streets of London.
We'd walk hand in hand,
All the way from Trafalgar square,
To the deep end of Oxford circus.
And once in a while we'd waltz to the catchy tune of any street performer stringing out Beethoven or Vivaldi from their scrawny violin.
And we'd not mind the many eyes of onlookers; Onlooking the grand performance of a perfect duo, waltzing to the catchy tune of a street performer.
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
It's dark, it's cold, it's lonely, it's home

Lights turned off, locked in my room
I stare with smiles, at the absence of the moon
I get familiar once again with the lingering darkness
It eases my pain and takes away this sadness
And as I stare into this oblique blackness
I think of bad and all beastliness
Devouring up every soul, giving up no kindness

In darkness, I find solace
In it, I find peace
In darkness, I plead no case
In it, I find me
The darkness is here
And it's come to stay
Do not be scared my dear
For if you're with darkness...there's nothing left to fear
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
I came as a friend
She doesn't need a friend
I came as an helper
She has lots of maids
I came bearing gifts
She threw them all out in a swift
But then, I came as a monster
And with her soul and heart, she took me forever.
Emmanuel Coker Jul 2017
For the one that is to come,
Please stay.
I can be a very hard person to love, I know.
But my darling hey,
You would be the only one I'd cherish
My eyes would only have sights for you
My hands would only hold your heart in them
My mouth would speak only of your love
For the one that is to come,
Please stay.
I can be very annoying sometimes, I know.
But my darling hey,
I'd always apologize for my flaws
I'd love you till kingdom comes
And even though love is never always enough,
We would always be enough for each other.
For the one that is to come,
Please stay.
How many tries till we get it right?
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
It's warm and cosy on the other side
I just can't wait for the time i'll die
To escape from this prison called life
Would I have to fight to survive?
The place i would be going to has no strife
No pain, no strain in the afterlife
Souls wandering in blissful unison
Making merry and dancing jolly under the sun

It's tiresome to stay here
Living life in the very grasp of fear
Faking smiles to hide your tears
It is better on the other side I swear
I don't know about heaven or hell
For theses are just stories we tell
But I know this much is true
When I go, i'll go with few
And love I pray, remains with you
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2014
I painted a picture in my head of me and you
Moving past all the obstacles that we've been through
Love is wicked in as much as cruel
But that wasn't the picture that I drew

I've been painting a picture in my head of me and you
Falling apart as we grew
I fell for you, and got bruised
And now my heart...wished only better, it had knew

I will paint a picture in my head of me and you
Two of us as one, a part of the lucky few
Who finally feels love, and bask in its morning dews
I will paint a picture,........ a picture of me loving you
A painted picture doesn't necessarily have to be what is....it can be what will be.
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2014
Put it to rest
Don't put it to test
That hatred of yours,
Deep down in your chest

Put it to test
Don't put it to rest
Those loving words you hold,
Deep down in your chest

For then, would you have emptied your chest
And completed your quest,
And you'll be rest assured
That your decision was the best.
Life is too short to hold resentments, forgive the ones who hurt you, and don't be scared to say 'I love you' to the ones you truly care about. They might be with you for one second, and in the next gone, never to be seen again....
Emmanuel Coker Feb 2017
There's something about her dreamy eyes
That makes you want to be a dreamer
There's something about her soothing tongue
That makes you want to be a preacher
There's something about her lovely smile
That makes you want to be a painter
There's something about her great physique
That makes you want to be a sculptor
There's something about her intellect
That makes you want to be a professor
There's something about her being
That makes you want to be
There's something about her
That makes you want to be her lover
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2014
The sky grows dark
As the the sun cowers out of sight
A drip, three drips falls
As the rain wets our head
A step, two steps in
Our hands clutched in an embrace
A thought, just one shared
We kiss in the rain
One heart, two heart breaks
Love is not meant for us all
Freed clutch, burning sun
The end, alas is upon us
My darling thanks for all
Goodbye comes with a fall
Emmanuel Coker Dec 2014
The truth still remains,
All sins are all the same
Be it one that brought you gain
Or one that brought you fame

We all walk our different lane
And in the end bear only our father's name
The truth might drive you insane
Or even bring unwanted blames
The truth might bring immense pain
But then it would never make you maim

Instead it strengthens you
Makes you feel free and truly true
You conquer your struggles and other obstacles you might go through
You stand a wise man and not the fool
And when you stay true
You aren't making decisions for one, but for two
One is yourself, the other is for the rest of the few
The rest of the few who wants to feel new

So don't think twice, don't think it through
All you just gotta do is think TRUE
Emmanuel Coker May 2016
This world is not my home
This life is not my own
Walking helplessly in this spherical dome,
I'd rather walk my life alone

This world is not your home
This life is not your own
Walking aimlessly in this spherical dome,
You'd better walk your life alone

This world is not our home
This life is not our own
Walking endlessly in this spherical dome,
It's best to walk this life alone
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2018
I keep on dying,
Because I love to live,
Sometimes it's hard to keep on trying,
When there's nothing left to give.

But I keep on dying,
Because I long to live-
A fruitful life, filled with joy and wealth,
A happy life void of pain nor death,
And I keep on trying,
Despite how it may not seem.

And one day, I'd be the one dying,
After a fruitful life that I've lived.
Emmanuel Coker Nov 2014
If falling in love with you is gonna make me the stupidest of all beings to ever grace the surface of this earth.......i don't think I'd ever wanna be smart.

Dear God i'm so in love with you...i loose all rights to own a brain whenever I get just a glimpse of your beautiful face, the thought of you makes my body ache to be embraced by you...if even for just a quarter of a second.

I'd bumped into you in class....yeah that was when we first met, clumsy me, and when I stood there, ready to apologize for being so clumsy, You smiled....., and as you smiled, I saw in those hazel eyes of yours what heaven would feel like, my heaven. I was lost. Your dreamy eyes kept me in a trance, an hypnotic trance I dared not wish to get out of....Yes!!..when I looked into your eyes, I knew it was you, and I knew I had to have you. This is more love than lust. I don't think I'd ever be happy with any other person. I want you and you alone. I want your whole being.
-To my cutie...(The best thing since sliced bread).
Emmanuel Coker Sep 2018
Weddings…
The church preceding begins.
I watch from afar as he holds you in your arms,
Holding as though he's scared to let go,
As though he wants the whole world to know.
You can see the love in his eyes,
I can see the content in yours.
Settling for less isn't always a bad idea,
Since you are a woman who's got a very successful career.
You just need a man to truly love you.
A man, who with his ****** prowess can make due.
I watch from a seat as he stares at you,
He sure is very happy to be with a girl like you.
I was happy too.

I'm at your wedding without an invitation.
You are at the door bidding adieu to the whole congregation,
I could see the content in your eyes,
And you now, could see the painful relief in mine.
Emmanuel Coker Jun 2015
And if we are not meant to be
Why then do you mean so much to me
Us not being together is something I just can't see
So please tell me you'd be home just in time for tea....
Emmanuel Coker Oct 2014
I am committed to the cause
I have since...closed those opened doors
Rules are meant to be broken....and thus;
I won't hesitate to break those laws

I will strive to reach my goal
And maybe in the process try not to sell my soul
'cos it's been rumoured to be worth more than gold
Ionno man.....that is just what I've been told

In the name of the father, we curse people's sons
And joke with the holy spirit, as if it's any fun
I will rise to stand against the sun
And hope for my love's sake, I don't get burned
