I Too Left
Babatunde Raimi Nov 2019
I just wanted to see you
I truly miss you Baby
Your jokes, your laughs
I love the child in you
I am sorry I left
It was my first time
I just wanted to know your crib
Never knew you got friends
Loads of them I must confess
When they started to "gbez"
One after the other
I got confused for a while
I tried to ask you, but you smiled
As the last one made to leave
I just followed him
I could not connect their acts
To your smile and winks
That looked mischievous
Thinking you needed a "Me time"
I too left...

Please, Come Back
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
You bailed out
Just when I needed you the most
I thought we were building a castle
Because I saw me in you and vice versa
What a castle this turned out
A castle built in the air it seemed

She lured and flashed it at me
Then I lost my sense of reasoning
Allowed logic to becloud judgement
This is on me, I know
All I ask is one more time to make it right
Please come back, please

Let me lock "The piece"
And give you the keys
As a sign of my repentance
I lost your trust on the laps of Dellilah
If only you grant me a second chance
Never again will I stray

For every tear you shed
It ripped my heart into shreds
Took a piece of me away
And turned me a social misfit
My holy voice will I lift
To God of second change
Please, bring my love back.

Dear Valentine
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
A little bit of cake
A little bit of grape
The sky is red
The temples are set
And the eyes, blurry

The maps shall be drawn
With the greatest ink of all
Pleasures without boarders
As they travel to Paris
Without flying to Paris

It is the season of agape
Not for ****** immoralities
It's just nine months
Cambridge result will be out
Save for those who played safe

The reason for the season is love
That which knows no bound
Dear Valentine
Please be kind
We are already over-populated

Who's With Me On This?
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
I woke up this morning
With deep thoughts of you
My bed was lonely without you
Rolling and rolling from north to south
I guess I am tired of bachelorhood
Surely, this is a good ssign

Your sweet smelling fragrance
That rubs off on the pillow
The taste of your organic saliva
When we exchange our juices
The still small voice you emit
When you ride and ride your funnel

Whenever you rest my head of your *******
The feeling is always soothingly magical
And can heal any ailment
Let me be your ride or die
I want to do life with you Baby
And the hour is now...

Leaving my bed is now an arduous task
I want to wake up to your breathe
You found a way to my heart
And left indelibly prints
It's high time I took the knee
Who's with me on this?
52 · Jun 2020
He Never Was
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
I smelt your perfume
From distant miles away
I can forget my California dreams
For a lifetime with you
I want to get lost in your sanctuary
That is my motivation

Where you go, I will go
This promise I make as a Lanister
Who always pays his debt
I know he is making a come back
If he left before, he never was
Receive closure, the grace of goodbye

Not only is he a sadomasochist
When he left, you got delivered
Liberated from the oppressions of a gamer
Please loose his number
He turned the page, you burnt the book

First they speak "Big grammar"
Then they invade your wallet
Then they browse your computer
Then they win, at least their believe
Then heartbreaks, then they leave
But not anymore, I am here to stay

It's A "Yes"
Babatunde Raimi Mar 2020
You flirted with me
Delved away from known tradition
Yes, I loved it
First I was intrigued
I "kinda" like this
Especially when you smiled
I trusted you immediately
I dont even know why
I was happy, yet petrified

Oh! How you quickly got to my head
Love comes with heartaches
And I am willing to take my chance
Hei! If you are seeing this
I tell you, you are beautiful
And I'll love to see the inside
In my entire life lived
I never saw God's creation so beautiful
It's a "Yes"

When you looked into my eyes
I went totally numb
When you held my hands
I died, then i woke up, then i died
When I was very young
The Moon followed me around
Growing up I realised that
Every street has its own Moon
The same way every king has his own Queen
Just that you know, again
It's a "Yes"

Dreams Come True
Babatunde Raimi Nov 2019
Surely, the curtain will fall
As the the night draws near
The Sun makes way for the stars
To reflect the glory of the Maker
While the cricket sounds
Masters of the air fly above
Through the silver lining
I see your beautiful face
There you lay like a goddess
When I wake up each morning
As long as i am locked in your arms
Nothing else matters
I just want to wake up
Dead wet in your arms
With kisses that lasts forever
Who knows what the future holds for us
Maybe I am just a dreamer
And dreams come true
Only if you believe...

Start Talking
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
You already chose your part
You lost your right to live
When you inserted your ***** funnel
Into her precious black gold
What more do you have to leave for?
Nothing

Not only was this pre-meditated
You were determined and intentional
A true incarnate of the dark world
Just that you know
The trauma lives with her
She's got Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

If we forgive, we'll never forget
Not only should you be castrated
You should be riddled with bullets
Your kidney fed to Dogs
While the vultures stand guard
Their duty, to clean up the mess

If you ask her to let it fly
Because he is family
Or you got compensated
You should be sentenced to death
Preferrably by hanging
Afterall, you aren't the victim

It's time to let it out and be free
It's time to shame these monsters
We might not all believe
But you owe your generation your story
Receive courage for conquest
Then, the grace of goodbye
Start talking...

If...
Babatunde Raimi Jan 2020
If he sends you roses
Buys you money
Takes you on vacation
If be sings you lullaby
Gets you Romanian hair
Mongolian wig and Egyptian curls
If he says "I love you"
Just say "Yes"

If he takes you shopping
Buys you Hermes & Gucci
Shoes you public display of affection
Takes a bullet for you
If he calls you "Honey"
With lots of money
Just say "Yes"

If your girls hate him
For reasons yet untold
Protect your investment
They have a thing for him
If he gives you unexpectedly
Good with sixty nine
Cuddles like a baby
Husband material in view
Just say "Yes"

If he looks into your eyes
And says "Adore moi"
Helps you change your pads
Knows how to hook and unhook
Discusses his future with you
You just got lucky
Just say "Yes"

If he cleans the house
While you just wish to relax
Allows you wipe your tears
On his new Marks and Spencer
If he makes you laugh
Buys you pantless and beltless suit
Take him to Mama
Just say "Yes"

If he raises a hand on you
And calls it a mistake
Spies on you like a monitoring spirit
Hacks your phone
Sees you as an asset
Other than a partner
If he is egocentric and loud
And not proud to show you off
Run away, "jappaa"
You have been advised
Babatunde Raimi Jul 2020
Revolving around the earth
Age long mystery secretly guided
In mother nature they blossom

The rising and setting of the Sun
Big and far away from our earth
And then, the slow passage of the day

How enormous then is the Moon?
Why then are the stars so small?
Yet, it brightens and  illuminates our world

Why do the Sun always rise in the east, sets west?
Must the Moon and the Stars tow the same fate?
Questions these are.

HE knew thee before he planted you on earth
Just like the Sun, Moon and Stars
You too will soon become a brand

There is a reason for this season
Be tenacious, bold and work it out in faith
Maybe one day, you too will shine like the Stars

Let Go
Babatunde Raimi Aug 2020
I am not a Crow
I don't hold grudges
Intelligent birds that never forgets
I have no bones to pick
If I were a Buffallo
I would trample you to death
But I am not, "We move"
If you are still keeping that hurt
The you must be a Polar Bear

Let go, let God Buddy
Only animals revenge
Vengeance is Gods'
Build bridges not walls
You can scold them in the morning
They'll still be friends in the evenings
How I so love Dogs, mans best friend

If you forget everything my friend
Don't try getting in the bad book of crows
"Really, e get why"
There are crows everywhere
With unforgiving, unfamiliar scents
Thoug forgiveness can be instatenous
You see choosing to forget, it's a choice
But, let go and be healed...
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
In the animal Kingdom
Where the Lion reigns Supremo
Sometimes he wears the garment of mercy
Have we not been admonished as humans
To learn from animals?
Especially under perrogative of mercy

All we need is a will
To do that which is right
Why did 106 countries abolish it?
Especially developed countries
How long will we remain savage
We say "No" to death sentence

From ashes to ashes
From dust to dust we shall return
But must we be the hangsmen?
A strand of hair we cannot create
Raise your voice, not your guns
Together, let's say "No" to blood for blood

If death penalty stops crime
The world will be free of crime
It is man's inhumanity to human
It is callous and ungodly
I support punishment for crime
But for corrective purposes

Let he who is sinless cast a stone
None will cast the stone
Thou shall not ****, thou shall not ****
Whoever kills in cold blood
Shall die in cold blood
Never again, love leads

If God killed for all our crime
Only Angels will dwell on earth
Maybe not even Angels
As satan was once a celestial Angel
Why play god without a heart
God at somepoint repented

Retaliatory punishment is not justice
Let us think restoration
An eye for an eye diminishes us as humans
As citizens of the world
Like slave trade, let death sentence stop
Every soul matters to Divinity

An eye for an eye is evil
Not all sentenced to death are guilty
Some appear guilty but innocent
Must we pay evil for evil?
Women that engage in abortion
Men that waste their seeds
Doctors who decides who lives and who doesn't
Shall we also sentence them to death?

Whether by hanging
Firing squad or lethal injections
It is a gross violation of right
Everyone deserves to live
Please, live and let live
And if you **** another deliberately
May your endings be sorrowful
But not like this...

I Still Love You
Babatunde Raimi Jul 2020
I take full responsibility
It was not the devil but I
I was driven by raw emotions
Spiced with untamed desires
Laced with
I was virile and hot blooded
Then I was led into the shadows

I know your trust is broken
Who even takes a broken calabash to the stream?
I might be a misfit for you now
But remember our glorious moments
Promises left unkept, dreams unfulfilled
How a one night stand can erase a lot
Memories now tainted by one inglorious adventure

I wish you will subscribe to revenge
And give us a second chance
But you are not God, the God of second chance
My life is empty without you
I lost my pride and dignity
The moment I laid with another
For all it is worth, I still love you
Please come back, please!
Babatunde Raimi Mar 2020
When you stopped the calls
Stopped the early morning calls
Halted the goodnight kisses
When the "Have you eaten" stopped
I knew I have lost you

I had sleepless nights
This by far, my worst nightmare
When you stopped nagging
Stopped asking about work
You created an indelible vacuum
That non could ever fill

When was the last time you asked?
About Chioma, Halima and Silfa
When you stopped sniffing on my phone
When you became monosyllabic
I knew I had lost my crown

Like droplets of dew
As the dawn breaks
Your tear filled the earth
You saved them for the last
Then you drew the curtain

You are the only star in my cloud
The only jet in my Airspace
I have gone wide and wild
Non is as sweet as you my world
Like the prodigal son I return
Please, open the gates

I wish the clock never stopped
Please forgive my immaturity
A dangerous one that cost me all
My heart beats for non but you
My world, please come back
Babatunde Raimi Nov 2019

Closure
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
I love you Baby
And I still do
We've been through hell
But each time I fall again
When you pull your magic wand
And your eyes caress assets

You darkened the sun for me
Right now, I'm scared
You added to my basket of regrets
It hurts to even ruminate over it
I'm sorry Baby
This is where the road ends

There is a Juliet for every Romeo
And a Parloma for every Diego
Goodbye my lifemate
The road ends here
For me, that's closure
"Adios mi amor!"

Legends Of The Zanga
Babatunde Raimi Jul 2020
******* is our heritage
It is our culture and tradition
You loose your culture, you loose yourself
Is there any juice sweeter than "Bobby"
Not even cold stone ice cream with waffles

Even if nothing comes out of it
We like it like that; a natural curative
Kissing without ******* is like a bee without honey
If you master this act my friend
You'll never need to ask thereafter

It's not like your natural orange
You  need to handle with care and caution
Add some vanilla or chocolate
Men! Your life will never be the same
Terms and conditions applies though
Else, "Na Panti you go find yourself"

You see those finely carved *****
They are like the gateway to paradise
They come in different shades and sizes
If you have tried the round, east west or tear drop
Narrow, asymmetric or bell shape
You are a true legend of the Zanga

With a tendency to reduce breast lumps
And also the chances of cancer
What about aiding blood flow and smooth skin?
This brings the real you and aids cross-
immunotherapy
And stress hormones are destroyed, naturally

Tickle the hyper-sensitive nerve endings
It can trigger the heartbeats to 110 beats per minute
The milk is a natural therapy for cancer
And can restore the immune system and the likes
Do it right; who knows maybe you can be lucky afterwards
That she may allow you advance further north

You Are My Guitar Box
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
Our world, conjoined like twins
When you fingered my brain
I found you in my fret
Turned you to a note
In my diamond plaited box
Safely tucked in my heart

Every of your breathe is a sound
A very beautiful song to my ears
If chords make notes
And notes makes sounds
Then you are the missing key
You are sound, I, the box

Our life is tuned like guitar pegs
Together, let's pull the strings
And hear the sweat sound
Escaping from the soundbox
Serenading the atmosphere in bliss
Because you are my Guitar box

Until I Met You
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
I queried the clouds
Until it rained down dews
Subtly, I douted schooling
Until it opened my eyes
If all men were equal
Why all these disparity?

Severally, I tried again
Then again, and again
Heartbreak seemed my lot
If there is a Juliet for every Romeo
A Palorma for every Diego
Then, why?

I hear the stars sits in the skies
Gently tucked by Divinity
How come they lighten the world?
Then they shine far from thence
That was how I doubted true love
Until I met you...

Porn Star

What shall it profit you?
When you open a private arena
Your hallowed sanctum of decorum
And feed it to the dogs
For mere sensual ecstacies

With the latest gizmo
Delivered surreptitiously
You turn it on, and loud
Travel to a world of infinite pleasures
Attain ******, yet lonely

If it is not right, watch it
You are probably being filmed
You get laid and get paid
Your escapades hits the internet
Congrats!, you are now officially a **** star

Just Don't Quit
Babatunde Raimi Oct 2019
Rough weather, strong waves
Maybe mother nature is angry?
Tempest storms, furiously raging
If vessels were scared of  storms
They will never berth
You see smooth seas
They never made skilled Sailors
The storms will rage
It's alright to be scared
But listen to me, never quit!
And who knows, just maybe
Sooner than they think
Your name will turn autographs
Keep dreaming! Just don't quit
Babatunde Raimi Mar 2020
Thomas Edison discovered electricity;
And invented light bulb
Alexander Graham Bell discovered sound;
And invented telephone
The world awaits your manifestation
It's never late to become

Discover problems
And Invent solutions
The Wright Brothers;
Achimedes, was a physicist and mathematician
William Thomson is to thermodynamics
As the Wright Brothers are credited with Aeroplane

Nothing lasts for forever
Not even life
So, tell me, what will you be remembered for?
There is an invention in you
Dont wait for it, find it!
Only then, and only then
Will you live thereafter; forever

Somewhere In Africa
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
Can a Lioness hurt her cubs?
Pluck their eyes, to save them from predators?
Can I really love and hurt?
If true love doesn't hurt, then why?
How different are these from Monkeys?
This is but an animal kingdom
Y'all should be sacrificed to the gods

Even Jupiter is dismayed
By these callous acts of mutilation
Filled with barbarism, rooted in ignorance
Who cursed Africa? Please tell me
That we may make atonements
And to say but the least
This happens, somewhere in Africa

If I were the Commander-In-Chief
I'll put you on a boat, sailing to nowhere
Make you a spectacle, an amusement to the crew
And cast you to yonder place down below
A feast for "Iye Moja" and her cohorts
Anyone who disrupts a natural course
Is to be banished amongst human

Leave our mammary glands and get a life
Whenever you exert pressure on her *******
With your hot pestle and iron
The beast in you manifest like a female Baboon
What shall it profit you flattening my *******
From which cup will my generation ****?
Education is the reason you wallow in ignorance

When did you ever teach me about sexuality
If hurting me is your way of making me unattractive
Will you also flatten my boisterous ***?
Or seal the city of pleasure between my legs
As ugly as a jungle Monkey is
Does it ever tire of making love?
****** harrassment and education is key
If you want to raise morally upright girls

If this inhuman procedure leads to complications
I'll never forget and forgive you my love
This is evil under the sun, somewhere in east Africa
Ignorance is not a reason for stupidity
Say "No" to to all of them
Stop all forms of culturally acceptable ****** harassment
Africa, wake up! Education is the key!
I'm an Advocate...
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
You are a "Beautiful One" to watch
Fun to be with, graceful as a ballerina
Look! I want to follow you like the shadows
Hang over you like the stars

I want you in my dreams now and always
In my arms, to have and to hold
On my shirt, dotted with your lipstick  
You and I, together forever

There are ladies, but you are "My Lady"
My world, My heartbeat. You are "The One"
Let's sign the dotted lines and do life together
Will you marry me, please?

Road Rage
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
When I ride and glide
I expect some sanity
Sanity, in a most insane world.

You don't want to poke me
A little to the right, then left
Lest I unleash my road rage on you

There is a fire in me that glows
It comes from within when activated
Best you "dey your dey" and stay on track

But, wait! Sometimes life will throw darts at you
A little to the right, then left
Focus, smile and say, "This too shall pass"

If I cross your lane, show some love
I might just need an Angel in human form
And that may just be all the light I need to see

Loose the road rage fast
We all woke up with different challenges
Just embrace yours and choose to win

It's My New Dawn
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
I have transversed the most beautiful mountains
Across the hills and the valleys
Solely accompanied by nature
The whistling breeze
And the gushing Rivers

In my sojourn
I met beautiful beasts
Devouring me became their delight
Painting in my blood their fantasy
They toiled and tried
But grace found me

They wanted my sun set at noonday
With a blazzing sword
Shinning in the hands of a Master Goldsmith
Carefully crafted for vengeance
The Master smoth them all
Like thin air they vaporized

Why me, I asked
Why should anyone care
Even in my unfaithfullness
Then i heard that still small voice
Right in the middle of my travails
Your transgressions I have blotted
"I will walk with you"

Again, my mountains became stunning
My crooked path straight
My future breath-taking
Suddenly, i saw hope
In the midst of abandonement
Because my case is different
And it's my new dawn

Maybe lace it with actions
But I fear for me
Lest you too say...

Where Do You Like It?
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
Jumping out of a moving car ain't easy
But when he comes off
Tell me, where do you like it?
Do you like it in your ears?
When that rich milk oozes out
Some like it right inside the pudding
What about you, tell me, where?

It comes off boiling hot
Imagine you coming off same time
That is the zenith of ecstasy
Until you get to that level
You are merely scratching the surface
I love the feel, i love the vibration
Then she clutches the bedspread...

I can see your skin glowing as  a childs'
A healthy milk contains citric acid, free amino acids
It contains fructose, enzymes, phosphorylcholine
Prostaglandin, potassium, and zinc inclusive
If you like to gulp it all
You are the real VVIP
But before you gulp, make sure it is healthy.

Be gracious in defeat
It is not a terminus
But a stepping stone to greatness
Put the blame on you

If you want to be a champ
Be humble, embrace pitfalls

You'll become an aficionado
Then you'll tell your story

Only few punches left
Don't throw in the towel yet
The world awaits your manifestation
Look into the mirror and say
I believe, so I'll become

My Kimberly
Babatunde Raimi Jan 2020
I love your *******
It makes me drip
If that is heavens road
Then, my mission is complete

I love your breast
Especially the roughages
That surrounds the juice
If I can only but grasp

I love your dimple
Even though they are simple
Each time you smile
I just feel a tickle

Let me be your barber
With exclusive services
That I may help you shave yonder
And give it a fine design

I almost touched that tattoo
Beautifully carved on your cleavage
When we bathed together
But bathing together is not consent  

Although you were silent
Consent for one
Is not consent for all
When we downed a bottle of passport
You were weak, I was your strength

Once we wanted to make out
You said "Yes", then "No"
But I made sure the sun didn't rise
For the moon was not set

I'll be ready when you are
In a blissful atmosphere
Under the "Udala" tree
With a sealed mutual oath

If you went it
Before she said "Yes"
If you shaged her
Before she was eighteen
You are officially a ******

This is not just a poem
It is the story of my Kimberly
And yet,
Still I wait...

Coro, The New Bad King
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
Everyone is in frenzy
Ebola came and was conquered
***, on the verge of dymystification
Coro, the new bad king
People walking like bipolar models
With surgical mask, the new dazzling apparel
But from the beginning, it was not so…

The pressure is on the world
Dancing ballet on their toes
But these cords are discordant
Cutting short destinies so bright
Have you got soar throat, diarrhea
Fever, headache or running nose
Save the last dance, check yourself in

This takes me to tomorrow
When the trumpet sounds
And the walls snaps open
The King of glory ready to take his bride
Lifting them into life eternal
Where the grass is greener
A fortress where no disease can permeate

All these you see, are end time things
We are closer than you think
Wake up, make peace and be prepared
He will take us into peace
Subject to simple terms and conditions
Accept him as your Personal Lord and Saviour
Don’t say I didn’t warn you

To the ones who have transited
Nothing in life lasts forever
Not even life
We are but sojourners on earth
Each alighting at different stops
We too, will join you, but not soon
Only when it is finished…

We can only hope and pray
That this plague will not last
Because it is a Chinko product
Meanwhile, wash and sanitize often
Should you suspect any, keep your distance
“Dem no dey use shame drink poison”
Together, lets make the world a safer place

Save Your Life

In the coven of "Awon Iya"
"Apani ma lo ida"
That's where they finish your work
So, look before you leap

You think the food is free
You feel fly laying with her
Cultivating all her land with your shovel
Your time cometh

Samson lost his ministry on the laps of Delilah
If you hear "Shior Shior" in the night
Accompanied by inaudible songs
"Awon Iya lon test microphoni oh!"

It is better safe than sorry they say
Marriage is the coming together of two
Perfect their imperfections
If she's got 6/10, seal the deal
And save your life

Pump it like your get-away card

Twerk, a little to the right and left

Until you hear the sounds
Of soothing joy and satisfaction
And the phrase "I'm coming"
Don't stop, because you just nailed it!

Do you want the straight route?
Or you prefer the zig zag route?

Chocolate and strawberrry

Love
Babatunde Raimi Mar 2020
A corruscating epitome of beauty
Adorned in petals worthy of nobles
Beaming with smiles so infectious
With a sparkling dentition like the Angels'
That's who you are my love

None can dim the glory of the moon
Nor reduce the brightness of the sun
Tucked gently amongst the stars
They shine at their own time
Like the three wise men I followed your brightness
See where it led us today

Religious, tenacious, vivacious
With all the contours and  curves
Embedded in a statuesque frame
Laced with pointers that breed inspiration
You are a perfect definition of beauty with brains

I was looking for a friend
In you I found a soulmate
Knowing I have the you in you
Gives me new hope to face tomorrow
Come my love, come
Our journey to greatness starts here
For without you, there is no me

My Favourite Candy
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
If you smell nice, I like you
If you have a good persona, i adore you
If you are intelligent, I'll buy you venus
But if you look like my Mum, I'll marry you

If you love flowers, we'll make a perfect team
If you love old school, be my pal
If you love Ballet, I'll dance with you
But if Dolly Parton is your favourite, you are my missing piece

From your breast alone will I ****
Let me into your innermost chamber
Let me take you to the moon and back
That I be yours, you be mine
For you are my favourite Candy

Before You Die
Babatunde Raimi Mar 2020
Before you die
Leave a legacy
And you'll never die
Because great minds live
They never die

Before you die
Plant a tree
It will outlive you
That the fruits may grow
And feed the next generation

When you finally die
You'll look back and say
Of a truth, I gave everything
Until i gave my all
And it is finished...

Don't run after shekels
It is pure vanity
Don't be entrapped by ego
You'll be like Nebuchadnezzer
Tell me, do you have a legacy?

Everybody knows their date of birth?
None, their date of death?
To this end, stop surviving
Start living, leave a mark
History will be kind to you

When you stand before HIM
Like the parable of the talent
How will you account for your talents?
It is never late to do right
Destinies awaits your manifestations

Support a foundation
Volunteer at special schools
Deploy your gifts freely
That's why teacher's are gods
They ascend to heaven direct

Before I die
At a ripe old age
If Jesus tarries
I'll live a mark
For generations yet unborn

The real question is
Do Poets really die?
Do Authors really die?
Your guess is as good as mine
Their works makes them immortal

From the jungles of Africa
To the Samba of South America
The Islands of the Carribean
And the serenity of Australia
I have journeyed with my pen

When I finally cross
When it is finished
Don't cry for me
Life is not in duration
But in donation
And this is a testament

How So Sweet
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
I am so glad I took the kneel
It happened to be my best life decision
And I and glad you said "Yes"
I already saw us growing old together

My once tightened frame
Now loosened to love
It was not easy
But it was worth all the wait

We were naked and not ashamed
Swam in ****** *******
No doubt, she understands my chemistry
As she fondled with my torso

Not many are endowed with near perfect contours
I must be the luckiest man on earth
She chanted as we fed our fantasies
How so sweet, with bed undefiled

Stay Positive
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
Be tenacious like the Gipsy King Fury
Believe in you right like Wilder
Duck and weave like Joshua
Wisdom is greater than strenght
Also, know when you're spent like the Klitschkos

Life is like a boxing ring
Who ever believed Ruiz would outclass AJ
Life will.always favour the prepared
He took his shot and overcame
Until you win, try again like Joshua

East or west, north or south
A golden fish has no hiding place
Starve your fears and feed your courage
That's the mindset of champs
And don't stop till you win

The Gipsy King was written off
He had succumbed to vices
Fell for the trappings of fame
But he came back strong
Let that thing go, before it downs you

Dear Friend,
The world is your stage
When you land those killer punches
You'll see nothing at the other side of fear
But success laced with joys

Above all, strive to leave legacies
Muhamed Ali is still the greatest
With his name in our history books
This legend will never be forgotten
When will your name become a brand?

Let me tell you about him
They call him "Iron Mike Tyson"
He still holds the bragging rights
The youngest heavyweight to date
He was a Gladiator

Like a Boy Scout, be prepared
Life will throw at you heavy punches
Pay the price for the prize
So you don't die a non-entity
Leave a mark

Never forget all your pitfalls
You'll need them to tell your story
When your glory shines
For you, failure is not an option
Friend, do you copy?

Shadow box with the best
They will show you your flaws
And show you the pathway
That leads to a glorious tomorrow

Don't say I didn't warn you
May this stand as a testament
Between you and I
That I tried to bring out your best
Stay positive!

Dear Stranger
Babatunde Raimi May 2020
Dear Stranger
Dear Stranger
In yesterday's hugs
I got lost in your scents
I didn't want to let go
I was left in a trance
So, I engraved you in my heart
And buried you in a poem

Trust
Babatunde Raimi May 2020
If I don't trust myself
How can I trust another?
Who gave me a hand
Then fed me to the Lions

They come in different shades
Sometimes, more beautiful than violet
Unfriendly friends, in friendly garments
Dear Friend, trust, but suspect everything

They pound you in a mortar
Dream killers and nay sayers
If you can but be still
They will soon manifest

Before the rooster crowed
He manifested three times
If the Messiah had a dose
Be prepared...

Beyond the smile, look
With outstreached hands they come
Smiling surreptitiously at the prize
If only you can engage your minds' eyes

In Robert Greene I found wisdom
If you haven't seen "The Book"
You'll be lost in their "poli-tricks"
You should see "Fourty-Eight Laws Of Power..."

Life
Babatunde Raimi May 2020
I watched the trees sway
They moved in unison
With a swagger unmatched
They sang holy hymns
Like the celestial choir above
The output, soronous

On them, the birds docked gracefully
Life is healthier with trees
But until it falls to the ground
It is but a seed to be nurtured
Slowly but surely in tempest storms
Aided by xylem and ploem

In the journey of life
Be the tree, growing in style
In leaps and bounds
Weather the storm
Maybe one day, you'll blossom
Rising above lucid clouds

Give me your oxygen
Take my carbon dioxide
Like a tree, one step at a time
Just one day, we'll get there
And appreciate nature in its purest form
In this tree called life
Babatunde Raimi Feb 2020
Those that sleeps, sleeps at night
Why should I sleep in the morning?
The Sun sets at the eastern horizon
And dissappears in the west
Why should my sun set at noonday?

From moonrise to moonlight
Everything has been perfected before time
Enfirement makes a star shine
So bright it illuminates our world
When hydrogen turns helium

I am a star, a covenant child
I'll leave when "It is finished"
But for now, God is taking me somewhere
And I am not there yet
Even the devil knows this

My sun will never set at noonday
I will never sleep in the morning
Surely, the road to success is plagued
But with Him by my side
I will soon turn a global giant

I'll deploy my gifts and talents
To His glory, for the benefit of mankind
Live to testify to His awesomeness
That's the covenant we both signed
If your Sun will not set at noonday
Please, join me, just say "Amen"

Covid
Babatunde Raimi May 2020
Until the season changes
And the earth is cleaned
Void of plagues and pandemics

Until the coast is clear
The water purer
And the air clean

Choose to live
That you may tell your story
To generations yet unborn

We are in a war
While our heroes are at shores
Better safe than sorry

This covid will pass away
But we must wash and mask up
To tell the story of "Once upon a time..."
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
When you started talking
I could feel your emotions
Your voice was hypnotically amazing
And your smile, mesmerizing
I am so much in love with your voice

So, when you say "Hello"
I suddenly develop goose pimples
Then, you talk and talk
And I never always want it to end
You sweet tender voice
Is music to my soul

How I wish I could hear that beep
That tells me you are on the other side
Nothing else matters in the world to me
Save to hear your sweet voice

My life is lonely without you
The very first time I heard you
The trajectory of my life changed
So, please, can you make the call now?
I just want to hear your voice
Your sweet melodious vibes

Deadly Beauties
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
Lost in your charm
Entrapped by your beauty
If only I was a child of the night
In the company of these deadly beauties
It will be pleasure forever more

I'll move from chamber to chamber
And elope to yonder place
I don't care the cost
I just want the frills
To die in you; a milestone

I'll give anything for your love
Should I die, then wake up
Let it be in your arms
Lost in your world
A world of unimaginable ecstasy

Gbez
Babatunde Raimi Apr 2020
If he takes you to an hotel
Like a cheap *******
And deny you a sleep over
Or take you a friends'
Forget it, he is married

If he drives a family car
Avoid your calls at night
If his generator makes "Futufutu"
Instead of "kpaka kpakaka"
Sistos, "Jappaa", he is married

Some don't wear rings
They give you confirm "lamber"
My wife lives abroad with kids
The callous says, "My wife don die"
Fear them, "gbez"

I'm sorry, I don't do single guys
The older the berry, the better
They'll confess they are married
This is advanced investigations technique
Run! Before they steal your destiny

A single sweet Lady
Dating and faithful to a married man
This is the highest level of foolishness
You need complete brain reset
What you sow, may you reap
Can I have an amen!

Dear Lord
Babatunde Raimi Mar 2020
Like a Jaguar
A very dangerous enemy lurks
The symtoms are unique
Vaccines hard to find
Today, our cities are empty
As this virus spreads

On bended kneels we lay
To the skies above we plead
To the Great Physician above
From whence cometh our help
Forgive, return we shall
Rid our land of this plague

The sunlight is fading
Your children are dying
Alongside heroic health workers
But once upon a time
The earth enjoyed peace
That which is now elusive

Now, no where to hide
Save under Your shadows
Tired are we of this devil's dance
We seek you in truth and in spirit
You did it before in Egypt
Dear Lord, please do it again

My Ride Or Die
Babatunde Raimi Jun 2020
You ain't pretty
Until you have a semblance of my Diva
My Soulmate, my ride or die
Even the stars pays obeisance to you

This was infatuation turned love
Love, what a beautiful feeling
This feeling is magically magical
This must be pure agape love

Together we'll ride and glow into the future
To have and to hold; for better for best
Just hold on tight Sugar, it's a bumpy road ahead
The one that surely, will end in praise

Your vivacious persona is captivating
I have dedicated a shrine to you in my altar
Filled with "momentoes" and photographs
Thank you for being  my enchantment
My ride or die...

Eros
Babatunde Raimi May 2020
When he went between my between
I drowned him in my world
He crossed the river swiftly
And had a sweet juicy birth
Never again will he swim in another

He was on a voyage to eros
He had to work extra shift
As he swam from dusk to dawn
Never have I been so enthused
No displayed so much energy
That guy was created for pleasure

Torn between my ***** world
I soaked him in excess flirtatious energy
The type your parents never taught you
So never will a "Wobe" child steal my crown
Especially as I rock him like a genius
His legally married **** star

It was like a seaside romance
If you have seen fifty shades of grey
He was better than the major character
Now, I have him permanently in my nest
And not even the gods can save him
