Piles and piles to read

I have piles and piles

Books to read and inspire

Inspiring books to salvage readable bytes

Bits and pieces of information alive

Sharpening minds and brains alike

A thicket of shallow brains

Harnessing into tangible minds

The art of discovery suffice 

In the books we read

Piled and piled in the locker room

Call it the library

A repository of writing prowess

A pillar to writing antics

Cutting and chiselling irons of the brains

Brushing and dusting off minds rusted

Into paintable minds that never rust

The idea and essence of reading 

An idea I will die pursuing.

All I wanted

All my love was for you

All my thoughts were on you

All my dreams were for you

All for a better tomorrow


All I wanted was to be loved

All I had was pure love

All I wished for was to live for you 

But all was nothing to you


I had risked all I had

I had saved all I worked for

All for the kids and for you

But all was not enough for you


All I wanted was to love you forever

And all I wished for was genuine love

All for a happily ever after

But alas you two timed me


How could you let him suck your lips?

The kind of kiss I never got from you

Oh the envious devil in you had awoken

Tearing my Eden into pieces.

Will you hold it against me?

If I say you have a glowing face

Will you hold it against me

 

If I say you have sexy eyes

Will you hold it against me


If I say I feel like touching your lips

Will you hold it against me


If I say those lips are round and sexy

Will you hold it against me


If I say your hands are as soft as wool

Will you hold it against me


If I say you have nice and bubbly hips

Will you hold it against me


If I say those legs make me tremble

Will you hold it against me


If I say your voice takes me very far

Will you hold it against me


If I say your behinds are round-shaped

Will you hold it against me?

Pure love

As pure as heaven

I slaver for your curved mouth

I slobber for those dripping lips

I become full to the stomach

With words soft and delicate as you talk


As I look at your body with uneasiness

I see food of the soul

Intact and enough to quench my thirst

I see seven wonders of my own world

As I drop saliva in drools


I slip my fingers in aromatic desire

As I present this erotic love to you

I find my palm pulling me to your bottom

With desires so irresistible and uncontrollable

I seal this pure love in mouthfuls of kisses.

it hurts me so much

the love you dumped on me

the days we cuddled and kissed

the words we spoke

the love you poured

the feelings 

the rubbed feelings

those that still prick

is all I have to salvage

it hurts me so much.

Locked up in love

As I hold this delicate body

I can't help but feel every skin in you

I feel the most delicious body

My hands have ever touched

The smile that hide behind your teeth

Gives me the temptation to pull you closest to me


Let my hands rain down your curvaceous body

As I wet my dry lips in your pleasurable waters

Let's lock our lips in an endless lockdown.

When hate replaces love

When hate replaces love

It's like you never knew each other

It's like you never kissed and cuddled

It's like you never shared the romantic bed


When hate replaces love

You would think you were born enemies

You would think love never existed

You would think love has no meaning


When hate replaces love

All you know is hurt and pain

All you salvage is animosity

All that's left is hate and no more love.

To my love

If ifs were ifs

I could be sitting on your laps

As I spell that dent on your teeth

Oh my heart feels soft and loft for you


I gather ounces of unforgettable vestiges

Deep into my pockets of unsung love

Ready to grab, chew and pooh the residues

Into the bin of jealous faces.

It's my passion

Writing is my passion

It has become synonymous with me

I write what I see

I also write what I know

I spare a moment for a thoughtful idea

I spend my time jotting and joining dots

Scribbling what my viewers call poems

Hitting hardest where it hurts the most


I have no fears for gossip

I hear what people say about me

All lies and insinuations peddled on me

But I take writing as my comforting art


I don't take anger and sentiments on people

I take wills and wits on writing

That's a passion I will die for

A desirous penchant I'm in love with.

My worst fears

 Stuck in the snares of my confusion

In the bush hunting the love of my heart

The missing link to my delicate soul

The fear of loving the wrong person

I fear the worst in that person


Soul searching to find my love

Deep in the forest of my virgin land

The one I will surrender my heart to

The one who will allay all my fears

I fear to get a loose cannon


The journey of life needs company

A person to exchange vows with

A person my heart feels soft for

A fish rots from the head

And my fear starts right from my head


Infidelity, cheating and lies

Characters I detest in marriage

The worst unimaginable traits to accept 

I shudder to spend my life in prison

The worst fear that beats me the most.

I will wait

I will wait for your call
I will wait to hear your voice
Even if it takes time
But I will wait

I will wait to feel you
I will wait to taste your saliva
Even if it takes forever
But I will wait

I will wait to touch your waist
I will wait to kiss those lips
Even if it's next year
But I will wait

I will wait to marry you
I will wait to have kids with you
Even if it dies in my imagination
But I will wait.

I feel empty

I feel empty
Because I don't have you anymore
I feel empty
Because I have missed your kisses
I feel empty
Because your absence kills my soul

I feel weak and frail without you
I feel empty inside my bones
My life is nothing without you

The memories of you
The painful nostalgia that remains
The memories that never go away
Have pillaged & knifed my heart

Life happened and we are apart now
But why the feeling
The feeling that comes flooding rivers?
The journey we walked together
I wish I could reconnect with you
And explain how I'm bleeding inside.
