Will you allow yourself go
Just because you await what is yet to come?

Let your wings Loose
While stilling the Arid Air.

Will you  drown yourself in thirsty truth
Or flood yourself in the desert of  Dreadful Lies?

All i see are forward glides in the opposite.
A dive into the musk of filt.
Hidden Truth.
Henry Akeru Feb 2019
My thought is like the Gold Crown
So tiny yet so dear.
But make a little smoochy sound
And It disappears.

My thought is like the desert.
So vast and so dry.
Heat and dust will make you merry.
Flooded in the mirage of truth.

My thought is like the ocean,
Reflecting the shimmering sun
Yet hiding so many slimy Secrets
Hunting me with dark dreams

My thought is like the moon
Glorious at night
Yet shy at day
In it holds power and MIght.

My thought is my blanket in the snow
My ice in the Heat
My light for the nights
And my forever playmate.
Word play.

I will battle treacherous thorns,
Conquer the garden to give you Roses.

I will wrestle the wind and the sky
on eagles wings to give you earth.

An elephant will i tumble upside down
harvest the tusk to craft you a scepter.

A tsunami will I cause to unravel
The treasure hidden beneath the ocean for you.

For I love you with the love of old:
my humble heart I present in a golden chalice.
The dedication of a fathers love

If I could dance
I still wouldn't dance with you
What use is the music
When we dance a different step?

If I could sing
I doubt our melodies would rhyme.
For the Key you choose is high
I fear I might break a cord.

If I could travel the world
I will do so alone
My desires are to ferry the seas
To be far away from your LAND!
heart break ..

JOY
Yes, the Mail!
It came from me
Imagine the Joy
It brought my craft
In penning this Poem
To state My feel

Who is the  King?
A whacky weakling without Queen
His Joyous defender
She Joy is a crown
Which he must adorn
At all costs!

Your body and Mind:
I want to read
maybe I might reach passion:
A joyful feeling when you draw close
Breath love on your tender Nape
And watch you fade away!
Passion, Hope and Dreams
Henry Akeru Dec 2018
whenever i hold you close
I feel invincible.
Something like gold in the crust.
From dawn till dusk
To drink from the aura of thy musk
A soothing release from harsh reality.

Whenever I Kiss thy lips
Invincible my bones become.
Something like a diamond sheathed power.
Year in and year out
To sip from thy ***** of grace
a painless drift from the hibbie-jibbies of existence.

Whenever I stray away from you.
My defenses collapse and I die;
A choking breath from an excess breeze.
My bones become washed.
Like Samson without a strand of hair
The columns collapse on my remains.
to my love and best friend

Barrage of societal Pressure,

The quicksand beneath Success.

Who paves the way

To the narrow curves with thorns,

Family or Foes?

Thin air provides the deceitful mask of comfort

Nothing is real.

Life is as dead as a shadow

With a surreal ghost. Supported by a strand

We are all dark matter. We are Rusty.

Yet we hold on to hopeless Hopes

And dark dreamy dreams.
We are noth' but puppets.

Who is the puppeteer?

Who decides the end?

For now, we swing to the strings of manipulation

Until this shadow fades into the dark Light.
the futility and uncertainty of life.
