Dear Love

My heart still races so fast when I think of you, the cold shrinks far away when memories of you crowd my mind. I swim in this honey pot of your love. Dear love, your scent taints my skin and yet I would wear it proudly like my perfume because none need know why I love this scent. I fear to share the secret of this scent cause I don't want another to rob you.

Dear love my mind fills with looks of you, my heart is sealed with only love for you and my body remains crystal only for you to taint. Dear love, my nights are with warmth from dreams of you, the sky may darken but in memories and lights of you I still have a day.

Dear love I wanted to say I love you but the words shirk back because now even I love you sounds so mild compared to what I feel for you so let me just say; you're my central point, my own pacemaker... Can't be without you

CAGES OF MYSELF

Like a replica I stand
Enslaved in my own insanities I play
Am caged and yet I'm free
In this dwelling I find myself

With binds I make myself bound
And with these memories I only run as a rebound
Am in pieces I know
But more so I lose myself to the tirade within

Like a song it sings
It's lyrics bleeding of the pain in thy heart
It's chorus breaking of the cracks on my skin
In the dark with the falling sky I know
I'm but pieces of what I used to be

Lost and wandering
From corner to corner I race
Seeking sanity in the midst of insanities
I still want to be whole
Only I'm but in millions of trillions of pieces

Blood like a river it flows
So riveting and taunting to my tender eyes
Tears like a waterfall drip
So beautifully slow and yet so painful

Dry like sandpaper the sorrow in my heart breeds
It's loud and endless
It taunts me of memories of one wrong loved right
It sings of a caged heart in a veil

The sky bleeds with me
Tonight the dark sky hides my pain
In the fall of the black my soul frees
And tears itself apart from the pain

Why did I do this
Why did you let it happen
Why did it grow so strong only to fall so fast
Why drop the walls only to place spikes

Am broken
The sky is tender
The sea has become too shallow to swallow
The lands turn to thick to let one grow
And the cracks finally become ridges

If You Would Be My Valentine

If you would be my valentine
My heart would surely glow
And if you'd be my valentine
I'd want the world to know
If you would be my valentine
My eyes could finally rest
For my heart already knows
That you would be the best
If you would be my valentine
I would want the world to see
That I have found the perfect valentine
The one just for me
If you would be my valentine
My world would be much brighter
So put those precious arms around me
And hold me that much tighter
If you would be my valentine
My heart might do flips
For when I think of you
It already begins its skips
If you would be my valentine
My eyes would surely shine
So won't you please tell me YES
THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MINE.

Dear You

To my dearest one….

Dear you,

I want to know you.

Like really, really know you,

I want to count and cherish each of the little beautiful imperfections of your beautiful face,

I want to be able to trace your jaw line with my finger like an old habit

I want to commit to my memory the colors of your eyes n the way you crinkle when you laugh

I want to kiss your lips n get swept up in them:

To be reassured that they only have a taste of mine

I want to feel swallowed up in the safety of your embrace

I want to run my finger through your hair

Until am acquitted with every strand

I want to memorize the sound of your laugh

I want your hand against my back pulling me closer to the solidarity of your being as we dance

I want to get used in hearing your voice

I want my fingers intertwined in yours

I want the rhythm of our heartbeats to align

I want our souls to mingle

I want to know you

I want to love you

IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES

If Tomorrow Never Comes

Beds of thorns. Friends with horns.

Hearts that mourn. Kids that yawn.

Trust torn. Hatred born.

Nights with no dawns.

Love gone. Sheets lone.

Is all I've known.

And all that life has shown.

So,

If tomorrow never comes, will you know

I cared so much that I never minded how

Much it feels to see you obey some silly law...

A law unwritten yet followed by women so low

Who think all Africans by nature are polygamous

'Players' she said.

If tomorrow never comes, will you understand

That it’s you who made me to slowly start to turn

The love we had to really bitter kinda hatred and

I began to despise you and everything that u stand

For, even the best things together we ever had

Is a reminder that it’s time to let u go be free

If tomorrow never comes, will you ever be free

To remember the lies you told of the family tree

Or the kind of hurt you gave me when we were three?

Will you be hurt when am not there with u for tea

Of a broken soul

I fail to understand why you do this
I fail to see why you hear this
Even then I still fail to see what you mean
So lost in my dark I can't feel your light anymore

You asked if I'm fine once
And I said fine is but another lie
You laughed
But what you failed to understand is
I was telling you I wasn't okay...

I wasn't okay at the start
But the rule was to say I'm fine
Even when the cracks in my soul broke
I still said I was fine
Because those are the words you wanted to hear

Today I'm in despair
So lost in the pains of yesterday that I know not the joy of today
So wrapped in the memories of my sorrow
That joy seems like a star in the sky

I wish I was okay
So that I could finally say I'm fine
I wish I was happy
So that I can finally smile without daggers piercing my soul

Like a deer lost in the streets
I crave to rush home to you
I crave to nurse my wounds in your arms
But even then when you ask
I'll still say I'm fine
Cause that's all you ever wanted to hear

I wish you could see this
See me strive to move far from the grips of the grave
See me fight the hell fire all alone
See me fight the darkness residing within
I just wish..

Can you listen
Listen to the cracks in my heart
Listen to the pains in my soul
Please listen cause even I'm fine is too empty
Listen as I say goodbye
Listen as I cry I can hold on no more
Listen as my soul tears and the grips of death grasp me....
Listen cause it's already too late...
