In this brave new world of no handshakes and multiple rounds of hand sanitiser there exists a blessed irony: social distancing is bringing my neighbourhood closer together. The solidarity of a shared smile - albeit bestowed from an apologetic distance of two metres - lifts the spirits, straightens the shoulders, and tickles the heartstrings more than any viral meme (no pun intended) could ever do.
I've been dreaming about you every night,
Zeal, an emotion I got whenever I tell it right.
Every moment of conversation feels like snap,
Not until the reality makes me realize that I miss you while bursting with a pop.

Lost for words because you always make time for me,
Oh gosh, can't resist the fact that you are here though literally you're not near.
Untold feeling of excitement because of you,
Ihh can't you feel? I'm officially missing you,
Enough dear, I am looking for the air to breathe 'cause this thing makes me blush here.

Bear in mind that even though we're apart,
Am here right inside your heart.
U're special without a comma nor a period,
This is a sincere statement with a signature labeled.
It's not a drama, knowing that you always make someone glad to see her smile.
Should I tell her name or just be mine?
Three, two, one, you're the only one.
Ain't beautiful but you make me fell in love with who am I just the way I am.

Fluttered for always having your patience and perception,
Endless eyes smile and a moment of heart attack 'cause of appreciation.
Remember that you can count on me,
Rocking your world and hoping that it belongs to me.
Emphasize the initials of every line,
Read between the lines.

Blessed sun and glorious weather,
I feel you warming my blood,
The bitter cold has said its goodbye,
Now the sun is here to lift our spirits,
What more could one ask for?
I remember how grey I felt during those cold spells,
Those times are now past,
Brightness is all I can see,
Oh, how I wish summer could last for ages,
It would be a welcome thing,
For as long as I live.

There are times that frustration and fear predominate us,
turning smiles of joy into tears of sorrow.
Life in this world comes with grief but a true Christians do not drench themselves in misery.
Seek God <3

To the woman who cuts fruits for me everytime I study
To the woman who loves shopping for matching clothes with me
To the woman who cooks all my favorite dishes
To the woman who let's me rant about about my days
To the woman who cries everytime I do
To the woman who makes funny faces everytime we click pictures together
To the woman who treats every child with the same love she gives me
To the woman who gave birth to me

I love you so much mum
I am who
I didn’t think
I would be
Remains me

I never was
Would have been
The person
That is me

Tell me not
What is to be done
Unless you think
You can make me do

What is the plan
Will it work
To get me started
On this again

Mazes and silliness
Interesting to find nothing
But to find nothing
Makes it worthwhile

To be bored
In the company of self
Either be moulded
Or simply moult away
Whenever I think of taking a break from Hp, the notifications keep pouring in
Makes me feel loved here :) 🙏💛

Enjoy every minute you are alive
Bad as well as the good
Bits of happiness wait to be mined
That make life as it should

They said happiness cannot be bought
Please believe that's correct
Leave me peace and thought
To quietly reflect

Another day
Little things
Say "thank you" and "please"
Feel so up and down like swings
Alone with memories

I say be thankful for all
That is fine if you don't agree
Value each moment
No matter how small
They all hold importance to me
Be thankful every single minute

Why am I still sad?
Blessed with reasons to be glad
Always feeling bad
I'm so sad

The notes like angels fall upon the
         paper submissive on the lines.
As if they were meant to mean more
                   than just a ceremony
of notes.
Giving a eulogy to
                                 my own request.

But even though cherubs grace my
         thoughts, divine interpretation
of an ending as this quill of white,


           gracing every imprint..



Perfection is blotted, the lines will
            never grace this reflection again.

An orchestra of hand gestures play,
         as if  I see ever instrument grace
the air in synchronized perfection.

I realise that I may not be a pauper,
        or one of riches and fame..

But I have a feeling that I'll live on
           within the lines of my creations.

A eulogy of my sound vibrating though
the halls of time, my eulogy is
           the sound I left behind never words.

I am aware my love
that in today's situation
we must distance ourselves
away from the world
But never from ours

You may not be the first one I see
every morning
but I always remember
Your fingers through my coffee mug handle
and your lips
Hi boo
