"sther" poems
I love you, for real I do,
I don't know when I started, I have no idea I have fallen this deep either
You complete my day with your smile
You are everything I was praying for
But you hurt me, I was broken by your words you know.
I have my fears too, I am not that brave either
You gave up before it even began
What if you hurt me, you think I am not worried about that too, of course I am but each time I think about you I know I can get through those fears, I love you that much
But I cant force it so I am going to let go.
Yeah it hurting me big time but I will heal again
I am not going to forget you but I am going to live like I do before I met you. I hope you find love when you heal.

Fàdéshéwà!
Omo baba é,
Born with a silver spoon
Your fun will end soon.
Fàdéshéwà!
Oko Maama é,
All rods were spared
But she was ruined by her peer
Fàdéshéwà!
Omo Oba,
The beauty of our land
Now cursed by the gods.
Fàdéshéwà!!
The most beloved
Clothed with pride
From your fall you can never hide.
Fàdéshéwà!
Please make us proud.
That was her mama's cry
Yet she would not even try.
Fàdéshéwà!
Ranti omo eni ti iwo nse
Her father warned
But she refuses to fàdé shéwà.

Garri,
My strength when I am weak,
The hero of the less.
Even the rich carve for a taste
We savor you with great haste.
Garri
The pride of our hood
In company of the ice
You need no sweetener
Your sourness gives joy.
Garri
My true love
Well fried and dried,
Then complimented with any nuts,
I come to you with my bowl!
Garri
My best friend
With tens of naira
You'd love a poor man with dignity
Living with him with no shame.
Garri
I have come to bow with my bowl
Bless my cup till it overflow
So that even when I blow,
You and I can still roll.
Title:GARRI.

I have lost faith in people,
Forever is not for me I guess
Cause to me, love has been brutal
I only have a simple wish, that I will be loved same way I do.
Maybe I was asking for too much,
Maybe I haven't met the right person
Maybe I don't even deserve any person
Maybe I was made for loneliness
Maybe only in myself can I find happiness
I was made for me, I am my own bride.

It all started with my sins
Including that of my kin's
Living life of corruption kings
But he paid the price
He live with no fault
But my lies left him with deep cuts
He prayed nonstop
But for my shame,
He came down from the top
Just to pay the price.
Knowing I am a sinner
He still chose to make me a winner
We wine and dine
But it was him who came to die
Because that was the price
For my lies
For my shame
For my idolatry
For my ill thoughts
His death was the price
I have lost a friend
But he said to me
"It is not my end
I have paid the price".
"For your redemption
For your salvation
For your eternity if you chose me
I have paid it all".
So I was given a new name
And now I live in his fame
Enjoying all of his gain
Because he has paid the price
For all of my sins.
He paid it all
And I am free.

Can you just let me love you without restrain
I want to love you without holding my feelings
I want to treat you right with my whole heart
You deserve better and I am here with the best for you.
Can you let me love you without questions.
See I have been hurt too, I never had it all sweet
I was broken,i still have scars from my past, I was left too, but i am never a coward of love
That's why I am here wanting to love ones again
And like every other time, I want to give it my all, my best and of course my strength.
If only you can make us work, I will make you the envy of all.
