A Different Type of Pain

All my life,
I’ve always wanted to be with you.
But recently,
Doing that is torture.
I want to hold you passionately,
But you don’t want me to.
I want to stare into your eyes,
And hear how much you love me,
But you don’t anymore.

Loving you is so divine,
But I feel like you’re on a decline,
When it comes to loving me.
Loving you is my most important gain,
But this is a different type of pain,
When I don’t know how much you love me.
Loving you brings me solace,
But I can’t afford to look into your face,
Because I don’t want you to reject me.

I sincerely do love you.
But this is a different type of pain.

This love

I understand the meaning of love,
when I’m with you.
I appreciate the importance of love,
when I think about you.
If time is priceless,
Then loving you is costlier,
Than wasted time.

Love comes with pain,
I know that when I’m away from you.
Sometimes my heart forgets to pump blood,
Because it’s scared of losing you.

This love makes me feel more alive,
And it also scares me to shock.
As for what I want after your love?
Then it’s more loving from thee!

A Tale of Two Emotions

I am human,
And so are you.
I hate the fact that I love you,
I love you more than life itself!
I love you more than the word “love”.
I hate that I love you so much.

I am weird,
You’re unique.
I hate the fact that you love me so much.
You love me more than love itself!
You love me more than the word “love”
I love to hate you.
And I hate loving you.

You’re a sun,
And I will happily revolve around you.
Do I not have a brain to think?
Well, I don’t need a brain.
I just love hating you!

360

From 1 to 359, I have uploaded poems and stories on this blog. This is my 360th blog post. So you can say that I have completed a complete revolution. 360°.

Wow. From heartfelt birthday messages, tear-inducing heartbreak poems, scary poems and stories, love poems, the occasional rantings, and the singular erotic stories. It has been one hell of a ride.

Post number 360. And I am not writing poetry nor spinning a suspense-filled tale. I am here to rant. And upload pictures. And say my thanks.

First and foremost, I give thanks to Almighty Allah who has given me the opportunity to be alive to do this.

To everyone who has been with me since post 001, I am very grateful for the opportunity to write for you.
To everyone that joined me halfway, I am very grateful.

To amazingink, To marieabd, and to every one of the guest writers I’m sincerely grateful for the ride.

To Nimota, Rabiu Aisha, and Teemah Bakar: Thank you for always going through my works and leaving comments.

To Shaka Muslihat and Soyoye Oreoluwa, thanks for always keeping me motivated.

And finally to Soyoye Oreoluwa, thanks for always going through the poems offline, online, and every other line in between.

Adios

Everything has an end,
Even the word “beginning” ended.
The journey has been eventful,
Catastrophic but eventful!

Loved and lost.
Grew up after being young for a while,
Made money after losing money!
Lived a life some would envy.

But this is a new crossroad!
And I might not make it beyond tomorrow.
Remember me for who I was,
Not what I could be.
Remember me for my achievements,
Not what I could have achieved!

Adios amigos,
Death might not be the end we all thought!
But this goodbye isn’t death,
This is the end of something,
And maybe the beginning of new.
Adios amigos.

The Prodigal

Things change
Feelings change,
And people change too.
Never for once did my affection changed course.
Even with the weight of absolute love,
I sunk deep in the sea of betrayal.
I fell into the pit of irreparable damage,
And deeper into despair than ever before.

The pain I dispatched was enough to go round,
And many more attached to my soul, mind and existence.
I opened a wound you would rather close,
I tread a path you have always avoided,
I brought up pain you thought buried.

For these and many more,
I regretted.
For the pain,
The unexpected betrayal,
The unbelievable anger and perceived hatred.
Sincerely, I’m sorry.
And like a prodigal son,
Please, take me back!

Diamond

The diamond I know is priceless
Forged from the bowels of the earth
Long hidden so unbelievably timeless
Beacon in the darkness, my heart
The one I love
The one who loves me back.
My today, tomorrow and forever

Dark thoughts

At this moment,
I feel like cutting a major artery,
To allow the blood flow,
To drain all the blood from my body,
So my heart will not feel again.
So the hurt will stop,
And the pain, all the pain, will go away.

I want to jump from a cliff so high,
With hungry sharks lingering in the water below.
And as I plummet to certain end,
I reminisce on how it ended,
On how love brought me this end.
And as I hit the water in pieces
Never to feel again. In peace.

Dead guys don’t love again

Love is Ruin

Love me like you mean it,
Is just a greedy human talking,
Like Oliver Twist,
Love wants you wanting more.
You get a smile,
And love wants you to demand laughter.
Love gets you a penny,
And love wants you to demand millions.
Love is growth,
But love will drive you to your ruin.

What’s this life?

I met a stranger on the road,
I helped her.
She prayed for me,
Like I mean the world to her.
For hours.

I offended the one I love,
I apologized. I showed remorse.
She treated me like a stranger,
For days.

What’s this life?
That comes with no manual
