Hello Love

If her story had been perfect,
She won’t be here today.
And if his story had been any different,
He would have taken a different way.
All the pains, the hurt, and the heart breaks ;
All led to the his moment.
Right here,
Right now.

The road was full of hate, regrets, laughter and fake love;
Lovers turned strangers and strangers became lovers;
Every other person left you, and some you dumped;
Every other lady left me, and some became estranged;
We’ve loved, and we’ve lost.
But little did we know!

Little did I know what was brewing,
The light at the end of the tunnel is you;
The calm after the storm is you;
The promised land is you;
You’re my today and tomorrow;
And you’re my present and future!

I love you so much Sunshine!

Moon and Sun

Just like the earth revolves round the sun,
My existence revolves around you.
The birth of a new day brings hope,
It births the hope of eternal love;
My everlasting love for you renews daily.

When the dark brings fear, sadness and uncertainty,
Your love keeps me awash in its glow,
Protecting me,
Saving me from depressing tendencies.
Keeping me warm in the cold of the night!

When the night is at the darkest,
The moon of your affection claims the horizon,
Bathing me in a reflecting of calm,
Promising me a dawn full of enlightenment.
Even when all seem lost, you and I are forever!

Stuck In My Head

Stuck in my head,
Like a piece of meat hidden in my teeth.
Stuck in my mind,
Like the beginning of constipation.
Difficulties upon difficulties plague me,
Ravaging seas and churning storms.
I’ll enjoy this tumultuous times while it lasts.

All things being equal,
You’re always mine.
Never for a moment,
Doubt my dedication to you.
I might be knocking on the doors of disaster,
But stuck with you, I always will.
You’re stuck in my head,
Like that elusive piece of meat!

You and I

Right now.

A Coward In Love

I fell in love at the worst time.
I was smitten when I was still a coward.
Scared of uncertainties,
Disdainful of the future,
And scared of rejection.

I loved you like no other.
I ran away from certain responsibilities.
I needed you. Wanted you.
But I couldn’t go further.
Couldn’t go for what I knew was mine.
I loved you, like a boy loves.

Now, I’m a man.
And I feel like I’ve lost you.
I wanted to do things differently,
But the time have changed
You have changed.
The situation has changed.

There’s honey in your name,
And you are the sweetest human I know,
Your words.
Your care.
Your emotions.
You showed me love.
You displayed sweetness.
You’re the epitome of perfection.

I messed up once,
And you took me back.
I promised to do more.
To be better.
To make things nicer.

I stopped saying this.
But my face tells you,
My actions speaks volumes.
You’re awesome.
And for ever and ever.
I’ll always love you.

Still you

I don’t want to sing your praises,
Your face made me.
I don’t plan on writing this poem,
The lines came to me.
I have eradicated thoughts of love,
But your personality made me.

And even though I didn’t plan it,
This poem gets better.
You won’t want to blush too much,
Because your mum stalks.
I don’t want to stop this flow,
Unless you reassure me.

I’ll fancy you for a millennium,
And admire you for another century.
Flash me that electric smile,
Let it flow through my subconscious,
For another eternity.
The ink is still dripping,
For the hot sauce that you are!

Paparazzo

“smile at the camera baby”
Eases out of those wonderful lips,
Gazing upon thee bring smiles,
But whenever you requested it
The influence of happiness is second to none.

“move your head to the left a little”
I’d move mountains for you,
So what’s a little tilting of the head,
Or a casual glance to the left.

I can have a thousands pictures on my phone,
But the most handsome ones,
Are the one you capture.
Papa’s personal pretty paparazzo

Akinkunmi, I love you.

We have a picture of someone in our mind,
And it sticks forever.

Remember when you pulled me in your arms,
Looked into my eyes and said
“Akinkunmi, stop disturbing me, you know that I love you”
Yeah. That one

It will stick forever!

To new beginnings (Happy birthday)

New beginnings don’t necessarily mean the eradication of the old. At least, that is what I think.

Decades ago,
On this same date; August 20.
I was born.
Or so I was told.

I started this last year,
And here we are, still not complete.
I guess like the earth I’m living on
Nothing is constant. Always moving.
Constantly changing.

It’s my birthday,
But no new year, new me crap.
At least, not this year.
There are more important things,
Like what exactly?

Happy new year and Happy birthday to me.

My Everything

When I’m happy and full of inspiration,
The thoughts of you makes me carry my pen,
And with deftness across the pages,
I scribble poems of love and hope.

When I’m angry at you,
My blood boils and I make my ink flow,
Songs of love and hope fill the pages,
And I dream of you.
I dream of you making me happy.
Again! And again!

You’re my upliftment,
My downfall.
You’re my motivation,
My frustration.

You are my everything!
And more.
