Adesewa

Going on a discovery of love. The eyes are the windows of the soul, and seeing you as plunged my heart deep in the abyss of irreversible love. I’d use all of my remaining breath to love you. So help me God!

Ridwan Akinkunmi Ajagbe (2020).

Is it the braids that makes ladies look cool?
I used to wonder!
Is it the crew cut?
That projects your lovely face?
Thinking out loud!
Going through the pictures
Over and over again.
I have to be sure you know
Then it dawned on me!
Like the new sun at dawn
Each view is mesmerising.
You’re always beautiful
And nothing can change that.
Not even viewing the pictures
In higher resolution.

I have seen you on gown.
And that blue jeans you know
Smiling, smirking, laughing or frowning!
Still the same effect.
Mesmerisingly beautiful,
Wonderfully made.
Which of the favours of your Lord would you deny?
Definitely not this Favour!
Beauty with brain.
With wild imagination
Friends with dinosaurs.
Neighbours with eucalyptus.
Can’t ever get tired of going through your pictures!
