The One That Got Away

Another day, another trip down memory laneor should I say, a narrow path to lonelinessIt’s only been a couple of yearsyet, it feels like yesterdayYou can’t frown at a prolonged heartbreak,when healing is delayedThese sad songs have long been overplayedbut, every day has been the same daysince the first day my heart became a deserted placeImages of the past when you were the vibrance in my day,an…

The Crater You Made

I used to only look forward to your messages on my phone,be it a paragraph or even just a word,And I would feel on top of the worldNow, I just wanna talk to any body I used to love running back homeso I can hold you in my arms,talk about our day and spend the rest of it lost in timeNow, I don’t even wanna be home There was a certain grace in my life when you were in it,so much life and…

Fallen Short

Art by @sd_creative To be fair, some things you do  Makes me realize I’m not enough for you  Makes me feel less, knowing that you want more  Plus, I’m such a mess, far from what you long for  Staying forever beside me?  Who am I kidding  My wishful, thinking you’d find none better  I’m hopeful, believing I can do better  For myself, and for us  It’s only a matter of time, I suppose But…

For The Best

Photo by; @FrankMcKenna Unsplashed I never knew sadness until you walked out of my life  And my smile walked away with you  I never knew speechlessness until you said goodbye  Words said goodbye to me too  My mind became a vacuum, I was drowning in emptiness  Tears rolled down silently, the heartache was endless  We still had plans to make, memories to create  A family to build and a…

The Over-Thinker

I overthink so much  When you’re next to me, I start to think, “what if one day you’re not?”  Who could tell the affairs of tomorrow,  and just how far into the future can I see?  I’m always bothered by the uncertainty   Even when I’m in a moment, I still have doubts  I’m a product of the world people  Living the karma of everyone else’  Drowning in the shadow created by the light of…

Broken

I fell hard, for you  But I bruised harder  I tried so hard, to keep you  But I should’ve seen farther  Cos it seemed like a temporary thing to you  And I was too much of a lover  Blinded by your “now”  On your head, I even put a crown  Ready to treat you like a Queen  I thought if I loved you more  Then maybe you’d come around  But that seemed counterproductive  For the more I did,…

Dangerous Love

Google images I feel like a moth to a flame  Always running straight to the bullet hole  Jumping in head first to the deep ends  Rolling my heart on a thorny path  What lies ahead is inevitable  But this thrill, insatiable  She lives life on the dangerous side and I know that  But I’ll risk it all, with no care of the aftermath  Her love is dangerous But it has me running back for…

Harder To Heal

I could tell you were ready to let me go, when your light ceased to shine   When the look in your eyes don’t feel like they used to  And the excitement you felt was replaced, by this cold feeling when your eyes meet mine  I started to think maybe you now see us differently  When you spent time with me, not because you wanted to, But out of pity  And your cheek to cheek smile started to…

The Rain

Photo by Gilberto Olimpio While I love the rain, I hate that it makes everything colder Especially when you’re in pain All your thoughts become somber As the cloud gets gloomier, Your mind wonders deeper You’ll feel lonelier And your hear falters quicker Sad songs hit harder Tears roll faster The heartbroken gets sadder And time, moves slower Without company, Sleep becomes the only…

My Purpose

Dorcas & Henry, #ItsLoveInHD The first time I saw you  You stirred up something inside me  I wasn’t sure what it was or why you But something about you was calling me  The second time I saw you  Everything changed  You gave me a reason to chase  And I had nothing to lose  I knew I wanted forever  But I never knew when it’d begin  Not until I saw you again  Everything became…

Stay or Stray

It’s easy to walk away  When it gets harder with every step  The path gets cloudier the more I stay  I come off empty, when I extend my hand to the wind for help Stay or stray  Am I enough, or am I just a fool in love  I don’t want to lose grip of this fight  I have to find the light  Sway or pray  These doubts are daunting me  Ironically, the closer I get to you  The clearer I see,…

Silk Robe

New Poem, "Silk Robe", enjoy the read

Photo by Antoni Shkraba Can’t seem to take my eyes off you  As you skin-care in front of that mirror  This is the millionth time, same routine  But I see a different view  Catching a glimpse of your smooth skin  Peeking through the deep vee  Formed by your silk robe  Look at your skin glow  All I can think of, is how much I want to peel off  That robe, from your shoulders  Exposing…

My Melanin Pt2

Model: @chioma.mmejeTaken by: @musaa_the_man There she goes  Walking tall and proud  She never hesitates to make herself known  In the presence of friends and even foes  You hate it when she talks  Cos very passionately she speaks  They can’t help but call her loud  But their words can never bring her down  With love as the core of her essence  Confidence is in her name  The weak…

Drunk | Sober

Photo by frank mckenna on Unsplash It don’t feel the same  When you tell me words you end up forgetting the next day  It does fan the flames  But that’s temporary, cos the heat turn cold when you fall asleep again  Maybe I should be happy cos, It’s nice when I’m the only one you call  Maybe I should laugh it off  Cos here we go again  “I miss you” “I want you” sounds nice n all But I…

No Warranty

Google Image I told myself I would never love again  Cos love doesn’t have a warranty  If I fall in love, do I stand to lose or gain  When forever isn’t guaranteed  When things go wrong you try to make amends  Emotions invested are wasted  Happiness is never guaranteed,  Even when the best memories are made  Then I can’t take back the time I put in  And I can’t get a refund  With only…

My Happy Place

Art by: Sho Stylez (@sd_creative) We know too well the challenges ahead How much our desires differ   Steadily, our fears are fed  Yet our hearts still yearn for each other  Many times I’ve thought about it too  How different we are  Then I realized I think about you  A lot more than I think about that It might be easy to just let you go  Or say we can never be  But I will regret it, I…

MEN in Mental Health

MEN in Mental Health

Man up, show your Manhood, be a Man  When we’re too Manly, we’re Manipulative Deep Misogyny      Toxic Masculinity, so so bad But all society does is fuel it  You tell us it’s okay to be vulnerable  But when we do, you turn us to an object of ridicule  Searching for a safe space is nearly impossible  Cos among us, we never know who is the imposter  Masquerading as a friend to hear our…
